I may be misinterpreting your comment but why would kids need
to be shielded from the existence of same sex couples?
I though the interaction between Molly and
Arthur whenever we see it and the interaction between Sirius and Remus in
that scene was pretty similar.

Gina: I do not plan on arguing this point and I think it is WAY OT anyway,
but JKR has said that she is Christian and uses that in her writing. The
Christian bible does not really endose that sort of thing. I do not see
anything homosexual about anything in these books just like I do not see a
need for the comments that Harry was really doing something other than his
homework under the covers. That is just absurd and it seems like to me that
people are trying really hard to grasp at straws to see what they would LIKE
to see in the books instead of the simple innocent things that are really
there and it is gross for people to distort a kids book like that. Just my
opinion and I stand firm on it but I do not feel we should be talking about
this here anyway.
Gina - who would much rather speculate who the HBP is or what DD
has on Petunia.
