I thought everyone agreed that the default is that thinking a person 
is cool desn't imply sex, that's why I gave other experience.

<<I am not calling your friends experience a 
fantasy, but did Harry discover he was "bi" after this 
observation?   No, he just thought Bill was cool, not hot, or sexy, 
just cool.>>

I skip the part of thinking they were cool, not hot, or sexy, or 
nothing in a sexual way, at 14 and realising he was bi at 22. 8 
years thinking he was as straight as Harry. Far stretched? As life, 
in his case.

Thank you, I'll feel free. I know they are children books, not 
shocking to children minds, but if they can't be read in an adult 
way, the name of the list is a contradiction in terms. And thanks 
for the Snape mental image, it's not just you.
