"Erotic play" is often used in the third chapter. Small children are encouraged to erotic play.
and when one of them refused, he was punished. When the students are told that in the .
viviparous days children did not play like that and did not have fun in that way, they think this is .
extraordinarily funny. .
In this sick world everybody had sex all the time. The "Feelies" are another way for them to .
satisfy their sexual needs without risking to have a baby. "Soma" is a drug that everybody .
uses to relax, to have fun. .
Another strange thing that appears during this chapter is the fact that all crosses had their .
tops cut and became T's. Maybe that is a symbol to make us understand better that in this world .
there is no god. .
Lenina is a beautiful woman that every men wants. She probably had sex with most of the .
male characters in the book! She looks at every man concerning how intelligent he is and every .
physical detail that is not perfection(one had his ears to big, another had to much hair on his .
body, etc.). The first part of chapter five is dedicated to the everyday affairs of Lenina and .
Henry. At the beginning of the sixth chapter Lenina is wondering about Bernard. She is thinking if .
she should go to New Mexico. New Mexico was a place where there were natural born people .
that had lives about the same we have in the real world. Lenina decides that it is a big opportunity .
for her to see something that different . Before they leave the director tells them that is a very wild .
place where children are still actually born. As they arrive there Bernard is fascinated about the .
place while Lenina is repulsed. She takes some soma to calm her down. They meat Linda and .
John there. Bernard is intelligent and knows that the world he lives in is not so perfect as others .
believe. The director wants to send Bernard in Iceland because as he says ,Bernard might be a .
threat for the society.
