Harry Potter, REALLY for Grown-Ups (well, PG-13 anyway)

As I'm new to this forum, I'm just going to jump in!  There seems to be multiple conversations going on, but I shall only start with one.
   
  I agree with Betsy Hp - Jo is NOT a romance writer.  This is not her strength.  She doesn't do a fabulous job of explaining how Harry feels around girls, etc.  I'm not saying she's a terrible author, of course, because she's fabulous, but writing interaction with the opposite sex just isn't her forte.  I know this, because I'm a writer, and it IS my forte, hehe.
   
  As for why there is no sex at Hogwarts, I agree that we probably just don't see it, if there is.  I grew up in a world where literally everyone was having sex with random people in high school, but I never did.  Perhaps Harry is just one of those people who can't find the right person.  (No, Ginny is not the right person.)
   
  Also, and this is the BIG REASON:  Harry has FAR too much on his mind to be thinking about sex!  He's hunting the world's darkest wizard and running around looking for Horcruxes and witnessing murders and all sorts of other things.  I think that girls just end up in the back of his mind because his life is just too traumatic for it right now.
   
  These are my opinions.  And I love this group.  Lots of fun!
