Hello,

As we already know Severus had been the "oddball" at Hogwarts, and the
most unpopular student at school. He looks "different" and seems to be
a "pureblood", but the Snapes don´t appear among the other
pureblood
families. I read the discussion that Severus might not be an English
boy. Maybe, but what if he is English? Just not of Anglo Saxian ethnic
background?

If you read very intensive about his magical abilities, the short
snips of his childhood and his unbelievele grudge he hold there could
be a different possibility. 

I have always been interested in anthropology and the myths of the
different ethnic groups. 

There is ONE group in all over the world which always had to fight
against the poorest prejudices: GYPSIES. 

Several prejudicies are:

1.they are untrustworthy
2.they are curious, sneaking around, try to harm the "others" (people
who live at one place)
2.they are very advanced at dark magic, do potions, are good
mindreaders, know a lot about the "others" weakness
3.they are filthy, live in mess
4.they praticise vegeance
5.they hold grudge in generations against their enemies
6.they are proud
7.they are "ugly"
8.they strengthend their kids to fight with all resorts they learned
by parents and family
9. they are thieves
10. they are jealous because of the good life the "others" seem to
have
11.they have no place to live, because they are always drifting from
one place to an other
12. they are simply weird, in different ways

These are typical stereotypes about the gypsies, and Severus Snape
could be of a gypsy origin. Even he lives an assimilated life.
