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?) LOL. This is why I sit in my snug little LJ corner... :)
I just get fed up of people throwing around the term "queerbaiting" because that's a very specific thing See I can't even comment, because I haven't seen it. It's all relying on other people's interpretations. (Although I can't see why Remus couldn't be bi??? That just strikes me as churlish.)
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. I'm a little like Moffat - back when I was reading them, I didn't notice what wasn't there. So I'm as guilty as anyone. Here's to improving!
