[HPforGrownups] Homosexuality: Was: Snape as the lover of Regulus Black

[Jazmyn Concolor]

No: HPFGUIDX 153513

No, he is not gay. Why? Because its a mainstream CHILDRENS book and the 
publisher will not allow a gay character no matter how much some of the 
fans want it.  Sorry, just will not happen.  Would do nothing for the 
plot anyways.  Friends with Regulus, a longshot.. a very slim maybe, but 
not lovers.  Though its hinted that Snape had no friends at all when 
younger, maybe really has no friends now that DD is gone?  Its not like 
he goes out of his way to be social.  While he might look good in black 
leather buttless chaps.. we are not going to see him in the Wizards Gay 
Pride parade anytime soon.  Bad enough there are shippers who have him 
as a pedophile, chasing Harry!  Come on guys, its just not happening in 
a children's book and I doubt JK will be writing romance novels for that 
universe no matter how much money she's offered.
