I'm a little disturbed by adults reading kids books and fancying schoolchildren. Is it arrested development and the rise of the kidult?

I think reading the kids books and enjoying them is fine (I am a big fan of HP) however the fancying school kids thing is a bit wrong. Then again, Emma Watson recently did a shoot for some fashion house, can't remember which one, and she was seriously vamped up - so not suprising that she's lusted after.

Edit.... I don't think many fellas (incl Mene) would advocate lusting after her in her Hogwarts uniform!!

As the source of the possible-perved-ness here I just wanted to clarify that:

(a) my comments about Emma Watson were made about her post-18 self (and particularly in light of the recent vamped-up shoot referred to by CM)

(b) as a happily resigned to being a me-and-the-dog type chap my comments were meant to be comedic (e.g., see Frankie Boyle)

Now, back to the nonsense. :D

:laugh I edited my post - I didn't want you to think I was implying you were a perv!

If you never read one, how do you know it's not good reading for adults?

Typical pretentious snobbery. For most people, books are about story-telling, not scintillating writing as art.
