One passage in the HBP that struck me as odd was in chapter 25 (pp. 535-
36 in the US ed.) when Ginny told the trio about Romilda's question
about whether Harry had a tattoo on his chest. None of the four seemed
surprised even though to answer that question Ginny would have had to
have seen Harry without a shirt on. Granted, Ginny lied to Romilda but
the question of whether she saw Harry without a shirt was still open.
And if we add the discussion here from a few months ago about what the
students wear under their robes well, I think you see where I'm going
with this.
So what do you think, folks? Is JKR suggesting sex? (JKR would be
very delicate on the subject of sex. Notice that we never even hear
any of the students actually swear JKR just says after the fact that
so and so swore.)
