Bruh. Its pretty obvious. Women want to be raped and brutalized and are obsessed with it. They also want to create this image in their head of the secret sensitivity of their rapist, he is giga chad brute but he is also so sensitive and cultured. Plus its actually good and Nabokov is a genius. And it is one of the emotionally affecting novels of all time.

>Women want to be raped and brutalized and are obsessed with it.
Women are turned on by being desired.
So it's the unhinged desire associated with rape that allures them, not the actual fact of the unconsented abuse.

But yes, generally you are correct.
