Re: To you, what is necessary for a same-sex relationship to be considered canon?
(Anonymous) 2020-08-16 09:23 pm (UTC)(link)Yeah. And even though it's never said (it takes place in another time period/fantasy world, so it's understandable) there are some things that make me see where the argument could be made that one or both characters are some variation of asexual, so it would make sense that it would be handled a little differently. (And although I haven't read it yet, apparently in one of the author's other books, the m/m relationship IS made explicit, so she's clearly not against writing same sex relationships. Which I guess could point to this one NOT being romantic because if it was, why wouldn't it just say so on the page, but IDK, there are enough things that when added together, make me feel like it is, even though it doesn't come out and say it. IDK if i'm even making any sense here.)
But then again, I didn't notice until she made the statement or think it was enough with Dumbledore and Grindewald in Harry Potter in the books.
I thought the ONLY proof of that even being a thing was that she mentioned it in an interview? Or is there supposed to be evidence from the books, and people just didn't catch it or something?
