Well, the Sirius gets all the women part does feel like it has a touch of subtle homophobia the same as the whole thing with Charlie a few years ago did. It feels like an afterthought to say even though she didn't pair him with anyone in the books he still couldn't possibly be gay.

But yes, calling her homophobic for daring to pair Remus with a woman or saying that he wasn't in love with anyone else is kind of icky.

how the hell does saying he gets all the woman sound homophobic in the slightest? especially if it was just a mention in his backstory and comparing him to his friends. if anything it's a slightly sexist comment if you squint.

Not on its own its not. But taken with her insisting that Charlie, who also wasn't paired in canon, wasn't gay, it does suggest that she doesn't want people thinking anyone but Dumbledore, who remained celibate for most of his life, is gay. Why else make offhand comments about characters being with women when there is nothing to suggest anything in canon one way or another.

I'm not saying it is any way intentional at all. I don't think she's purposefully trying to say no one else is gay. But it does feel like she has this subconscious reaction when people think other characters could be gay.

Wtf? There are lots of men in the series who were never paired up, like Seamus and Kinglsey and Regulus and Crabbe+Goyle and Pettigrew and Lockhart and Moody and... shall I go on? She was asked about Charlie, and the stand-out factor about Charlie was that he was interested in dragons.

I think you're reading way too much into it. Sometimes straight people forget about representation of non-straight people, because straight is the default to them. That doesn't make them homophobic.

Actually, seeing straight the default that everyone is is homophobic. It isn't blatant, in your face homophobia, but yes it is homophobic.

oh ffs

No... no it's not. Yikes.

(Anonymous) 2013-08-03 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
No it's not? Pretending gay people don't exist is homophobic. Assuming the majority of people are straight when the majority of people are straight is not.

(Anonymous) 2013-08-03 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
I don't get how that is homophobic at all. It was already established in canon that lots of girls fancied Sirius and everyone found him to be handsome, and that he was attracted to women judging by the posters on his walls. The fact that he was popular + handsome + attracted to women + a teenager with a (probably) raging libido = Sirius "getting all the women".
