Just because Rowling does not focus on it doesn't mean we're supposed
to think nothing is going on when the girls are gossipping about
tattooes in private places and kids are being caught making out in the
bushes.  As in an old-fashioned movie, it is easy to imagine there is
more going on than is seen "on-screen."
