That is a very good point about Moff as opposed to JKR (but oh my God, can you imagine the flames that would occur if you pointed it out?)

The article was interesting; I just get fed up of people throwing around the term "queerbaiting" because that's a very specific thing (especially when it comes to Remus and Tonks). I do understand that the continued lack of official gay characters in the HP universe is disappointing and also puzzling given JKR's other works.
