Gay men were a high risk group. So in my very humble opinion, I 
think that Remus being gay and Remus having a disease connected to HIV
are both powerful metaphors and both possible.

I have to disagree with you there, I do believe Remus has some 
disability, but I don't think it's AIDS or any other disease per se, 
I'm thinking more like Handicapped people in wheelchairs, they 
are "normal" but they just have a little problem: they can't walk, 
Remus' problem is that at full moon he turns into a werewolf. IMO of 
course.

Juli: Please do so!! For a while I've been asking Remus/Surius 
shippers for some canon to backup their theory since I don't see even 
the slightest hint, and HBP convinced me even more that they are Not a 
couple. There was a whole thread on that a while ago, it starts in 
message # 131180
