"Lolita" is an English-language term defining a young girl as "precociously seductive."[1] It originates from Vladimir Nabokov's 1955 novel Lolita, which portrays the narrator's sexual obsession with and victimization of a 12-year-old girl named Dolores, for whom his nickname is Lolita.[2] Unlike Nabokov, however, contemporary writers typically use the term "Lolita" to portray a young girl who attracts adult desire as complicit rather than victimized.[1]
