Wow, that's reading a lot into things. I don't mind Ron but I also didn't get a lot from his character. He's pretty bland to me (book!Ron less so than movie!Ron who actually did annoy me). It's not tied into class issues at all either - I grew up dirt poor myself and tend to like characters who have money issues more than ones who are set for life.

But the role he played in the story just didn't do much for me. I also am usually more intrigued by antagonistic relationships, or friends who start out as enemies and only later grudgingly develop respect and actually start to like each other. That's why I like the occasional fanfic where Harry and Draco become friends. It's not because Draco's a better character than Ron - he's definitely not a better person - but his role in the story and his relationship with Harry interest me much more. Ron was just the Hero's Childhood Best Friend. If he'd been able to play more of a role in the plot, I think I might have liked him more. As it was, it felt like he was mainly there for comic relief.

That's fine. Which is why I said, and I quote my above comment exactly: "I'm not saying everyone who dislikes Ron is a moron. Sometimes, a character just rubs you the wrong way and that's fine."


It's the people who HATE him and think he's OMG so awful for daring to have teenagery flaws that I'm talking about.
