"Right there in the first book we know right off the bat what each
house admires as good traits for their members. It's very obvious
that above the others there are going to be more lecherous folk
in Slytherin than the others, simply by the traits they admire,
ambitious people always have the proclivity towards "evil". Maybe
that was the idea of having the house, to sort of wrangle in just
how to use these dark thoughts and ideas into something more
productive. Or maybe the idea was, if you take the psychological
approach, that inside each of us we all have the potential for
dark deeds, and we must accept that fact."
Are you sure that 'lecherous' is the word you are looking for? It doesn't quite
seem to fit.
