>I am well aware of our by-laws Severus, being Bi myselfHow did Rowling get away with this
Dumbledore was not gay and he and Grindelwald were just friends
well done Slytherin but fuck you gryffindor because I say so lol, what are you gonna do about it
Astroturfed marketing thread.
Does an author saying their character was actually gay all along, well after the final books were published, and despite it not being mentioned at all, actually make it so?What if she said he was a death eater all along?
>>223617116The point of him being gay wasn't relevant to the story. Him being a death eater would have been.
>>223617116No, you can't reinterpret your own book after the fact. If it's not in the text, it isn't real.
>>223617116>>223617130His sexuality never came up. It's you who were assuming he's straight
>>223617154Straight is the default. If sexuality isn't mentioned, then they are straight.
>>223617154>uhhh mental illness was never mentioned so HOW do you know that Dumbledore wasn't a paranoid shcizophrenic that is also attracted to insects???
>>223617116Him being gay for wizard hitler in his backstory is important context for his character
>>223617086Son, the movies have been out over a decadefym?
If I wrote a character in a published novel I'd like to think I had total control over saying what they were likeThe question is whether it contradicts what I already wrote
>>223617130She had a good concept building a magical world but had no idea of character development. Why everyone loves the idea of femDraco because it instantly becomes the best written female character In the story.Rowling created Hermoine as self insert, super smart, best friend of the main character. But couldn't create other female characters with any depth, who could outshine her.
>>223617264>If I wrote a character in a published novel I'd like to think I had total control over saying what they were likeAnd you would be wrong and a faggot. Once a work is published it is the READER who gets to interpret it, not you. If you wanted the reader to see something a certain way than you should have put it in the fucking book.
>>223617233Marketing for the tv show. You know that.
>>223617116>>223617264He's a nonce
>extremely pro-gay, extremely anti-transWhat even is this ideology
>>223617851It's not an ideology, it's pure self interest. Rowling was a strong supporter of the trans movement until they started invading women's spaces, and even then continued to express her sympathy with them until their abuse and vitriol became so intense as to make her bitter and resentful of them.
>>223617116It's not real. He's not gay norstraight because he doesn't exist. It's just symbols on a piece of paper. All the meaning is made up and exclusive to the conciousness reading it.
>>223617851It's called "only keeping up with the overton window up to a point"
>>223617130This is true and incredibly basedDumbledore confirmed straightScatfags seething
SILEEEEEENCE
>>223617851Rowling is a wokie, she strategizes her allegiances. She made friends with faggots because they support feminism but troons obviously go against basic female security.Then again it's not like she cares about their mental illness beyond that, they're the ones obsessed because they're insane.>>223617130This. Reminds me of when Lucas tried to claim "Obi-Wan and Yoda wanted Luke to save Vader" even though the film makes it apparent they expect Luke to defeat him.
>>223617124Well it does because being gay is evil
>>223617851Gay stuff doesn't harm women, men in womens spaces does. So I'd call it common sense.
