Funny, I always took Sirius and Lupin as lovers, and I don't even 
like Sirius. 

One thing Jo has done is shown how wrong prejudice is, just look at 
Harry's opinion of the statue in the MoM. Add to that the blood 
purity and the only comments about gays in the book came from 
Dudley, it's pretty plain that she is a very tolerant person. She 
probably knows that putting an out gay couple in the book would have 
made many parents uneasy about their children reading the stories. I 
mean she's getting grief because of the increasing violence, imagine 
if she had an out and proud homosexual or lesbian?
