imho, unequivocally, you all have your heads in the proverbial root
cellar, lol, since wouldn't everyone wear dark slacks or jeans and
trainers, knowing the plan before arriving, and only shirts and jackets
would be exchanged for Harry's likely appearance. i seriously doubt any
one of the women vain enough to wear heals on this specific mission.
however, i do agree, as it was my first thought, that jkr apparently
inserted a passage referencing his recent play 'Equus' performance.
furthermore, i think very fondly and humorously of the first few lines
of eggplants response.  tysvm for the huge smile.
and if an unemotional educated response beyond this is required:
growing-up includes an intimate awareness of a body, as its changes are
recordable as opposed to the mental and emotional maturity, which also
changes as a person grows-up. these things are as natural as child-
birth/dying, in my opinion, and extending as women and men have a
distincly different socio-economic reactions to these changes.
personally, i applaud jkr, for her tasteful 'innuendos', since we, as
adults, know how painful growing-up really is without any parents and
living with deaths of so many. the frequent interactions among friends
results in a reality check, if you will, of normal emotions keeping one
sane, (lol).
I enjoyed them and had a good laugh as well.  my children exaggerated
the innuendos, glanced at each other smiling teasingly, and read on. I
think it assists in creating and reinforcing our insistent child-
rearing perspective of normalcy to bodily changes as well as a
perspective policy, practice and procedural reactions as one 'grows-
up'.
