I think that theory comes from the movies. Ginny looks like Harry's mum there.

Nah, people were already using that argument to bash Ginyy and Harry/Ginny before the movies.

James was a chaser, bb.

I think Harry fell for Ginny because she was an immature prat like James was, tbh.

Uh, Harry hated that side of James. Harry saw none of the same immaturity you speak of in Ginny.

I dunno, I think it's pretty telling that Jo wrote Harry's dead, unknown mother and his future wife as similar in looks.

And since when is Lily mild-mannered and quiet? She's tells off James pretty well when he torments Sirius, when even Lupin remained quiet.

Yeah, it tells me JKR has a ginger fetish. lol There are so many characters with ginger or auburn hair in that series. I love it. <3

I always felt that Ginny acts more like James then Lily.

Harry married his dad, not his mom.

Ewww, Harry confirmed for closet gay.

Harry never knew his mother that well. If he was going to be paired with someone like his mother figure, he'd have married someone like Aunt Petunia.

YES! This is what I was going to write. Seriously, people, get your psychology together. That is not the way the Oedipus complex works.

unless it was something like... harry never knew his mum so he married someone who was how he imagined her to be

or some shit like that

idk. lawls

Petunia was never even remotely close to his mother figure, though.

though molly weasley might have been more of a mother figure to him-

oh shit

I think it's an amusing joke, honestly, but it's not something I take seriously. My reasons for not caring for that pair lie beyond how Ginny looks, tbh.

This theory bothers me SO MUCH. Lily's most important characteristic is her GREEN EYES. We hear about them every five minutes. Ginny has brown eyes. Also, it's always been hinted that Harry is like his dad on the outside, but he has his mother's eyes, and he's like his mom on the inside. Harry's personality is nothing like James. Also, the relationship dynamic in H/G is NOTHING like James and Lily.
If you want a James/Lily parallel, try Ron/Hermione. Love/hate relationship, pureblood boy and muggleborn girl, and many a Ron/Hermione shipper have pointed out the parent/child dynamic the two sometimes have with Harry. I won't get into all that, but, while they're not exactly the same, R/Hr is much more like J/L than H/G is.

okay i'm gonna be the unwanted nit-picker and just point out that James did not play seeker. he was a chaster on the house quidditch team.

I always thought Harry married Ginny because he couldn't marry Ron. ^^

Lily and Hermione weren't alike. I don't get where people get this idea from. Lily was said to be feisty, funny, vivacious, and she wasn't top of her class (James and Sirius were). She wasn't bookish like Hermione (at least, we have no reason to believe this). She seemed pretty adventurous, from what we got in The Prince's Tale, and one would think she'd have to be to marry someone like James. Between Ginny and Hermione I'd say Lily was far more like Ginny, from what we know. Even JKR has made that connection, when she said that Lily was pretty and well-liked.

I don't think Harry/Ginny is a copy of James/Lily but I do think there are a lot of parallels, and I think it was deliberate. I would have to say, though, that Ginny was more like James, and Harry was more like Lily. In any case, I like both couples, though I'm far more of a James/Lily shipper. :)

Didn't you know? All redheaded women are alike.

DEFENSIVE GINNY SECRETS FOR EVER AND EVER

I MEAN, I LOVE GINNY TOO BUT COME ON

I don't think there were supposed to look alike. TBH I still don't understand why Harry fell for Ginny at all.

Love the fanart those two came from. <3

1. I love you.

2. In my head, Harry has several physical traits from Lily other than his eyes (like his nose, since it's canon that James' is different than Harry's), and a lot of mannerisms. I have this pet plot-bunny where somehow Ginny and Harry meet Lily, and the first thing Ginny says is "wow, you look so much like her!"
