Um, something has started to bother me...

As I listened to PoA and GoF, I was impressed again by Sirius'
character. Although there's some ruthlessness caused by 12 years in
Azkaban, he seems to have a lot of wisdom. In GoF, we see that Harry
has become the most important person in his life--I like the fatherly
tendencies we've see in him.

But when I talk to fans and read fanfic, one of the universally held
beliefs is that Sirius is a bit of a ladies' man. There is not one shred
of evidence in the actual text to back this up IMO! It doesn't even seem
to fit his canonical character.

And yes, I'm still a card-carrying member of the "We Seriously Love
Sirius" club (horrible pun, I know--you can puke now). I just think he
gets an undeserved rap, that's all.
