Men in HP

[Lilac]

Okay, I've held out long enough!  My turn on the Men of HP!

1. Lupin:  definitely the marrying type.  He's good with kids and gentle and sweet, and he's got that sexy animal side to him.

2. Sirius:  the exciting college boyfriend, when I was going through my "wild" stage.  Sexy animal side a definite plus!

3. Lockhart:  I probably would have had a crush on him when I was 13, but it wouldn't last, and I'd be laughing at him soon after.

4. Snape:  He's intriguing, and if he looked just like Rickman in the movies, then Heavens, yes!  At least the attraction is there.

5. Dumbledore:  nah...too much the grandpa figure.

6. Bill and Charlie:  Oh, yes!  They seem very into their careers at the moment, but I see them as the marrying type.  Plus, I'm a sucker for red-heads with a sense of humor!

7. Barty Crouch, JR.:  I was impressed with Moody!Crouch and how he helped Harry, but I don't know...he'd probably just use me, chew me up and spit me out.

8.  Moody:  I'll pass!

9.  Tom Riddle:  Only I were 16 again and if he looked just like Christian Coulson, the actor from the movie I am not ashamed to name:  HARRY POTTER AND THE CHAMBER OF SECRETS!!!  But not Voldemort.  Too skinny and snake-like.

10. Oliver Wood:  again, if I were 16-18 again...he seems really nice, too.  A bit preoccupied sports-wise, but nice nonetheless.

11.  James Potter:  He's the only married one, so I never had one on him.  Oh, and he's dead, too.  

11. Harry and Ron:  like someone said on the main list (was it Alora?  I erased it, so I can't check) that when reading I can get into the "I'm 14 again" mode with all the crushes and boy/girl stuff, but I generally feel like Harry and Ron's mom or older sister when thinking about them at this age: protective and wanting to help them.  Now, a grown-up, post-series Ron or Harry (18 or older), and I'm there.  I've read some really great fan-fic and seen wonderful fan-art of the Trio, et al, after age 20, that the possibilities are definitely there in the future.

I know some of the men on the list have been bemoaning the lack of attractive/legal women in the HP series.  I guess we have to thank JKR for that!  Sure, we women complain that there are not enough females in the books, but now that we're analyzing the attractiveness of the male characters and we notice there are an abundance of them, we should be thankful for the lack of females!  Okay, I'm kidding, but I think it does have to do with the fact that JKR is a het. female who wrote these books.  I'll even wager to say that the male slash fans don't mind the abundance of males either.
