I deleted the other posts on this subject so it might look like I'm 
responding out of place but - on the subject as to why Harry wasn't ogled over more at 
Hogwarts... Who says he wasn't?  JKR can't put everything that happens in the 
books or each one would be an encyclopedia... she said so herself.  In Book 4 
Ron is jealous of Harry because of all the attention he gets...  so Harry 
does get a lot of attention but we just don't read about it all the time.

At least that's my take on it.
