Lewis Carroll- the genius behind Alice in Wonderland

[Fritzo]

Turns out he wrote the story to impress a 10 year old "girlfriend". He also had a thing for asking parents if he could photograph their kids in the nude:

I think I like the Disney version better.

The entire story is filled with drug and sex innuendo.

I've seen the movie more times than I'd like to admit.

What sex innuendo?

The movie doesn't really get close to the book...it is a Disney movie, after all. I have a big hardcover annotated version of the book and man was that a trip the first time I read it.

Guess he should have introduced an extra character in his stories Alice, The Mad Hatter, The Queen of Hearts, and Pedobear

Substitute "boy" for "girl" and "Michael Jackson" for "Lewis Carroll".

I read up on this a while ago. I think it's another thing that can be chalked up to changes in social definitions and culture norms. Like ancients greeks and their boy lovin'. Check out the two sections on his wikipedia page to see what I'm talking about:
