Normal

This is really quite impressive as a piece of forward thinking. Unfortunately for me, it’s from an author I am particularly jealous of/frustrated with, but she’s clearly the only person in literature with the gravitas to pull it off. And indeed the balls.

Dumbledore doesn’t like girls.

A generation of children will now be growing up seeing just a few more things as normal, which means the usual psycho-loonies in the far right Christian Faculty Against Witchcraft and Buggeration will be denied many future acolytes to keep their vile pestilent philosophy of hate going.

Must… resist…. urge to praise…

  1. Oh, go ahead and praise her, just this once. We shan’t tell anyone.

  2. Oh, wow. I actually didn’t notice that. Well spotted.
    I think I might love her a bit for that.

  3. Holy freaking wizard nuts! And in the back of my mind as I read about his past, I thought, "that sounds like a close relationship for a pair of blokes."

    I think praise is due for this twist.
