>>212790835I'd put my snape into hermiones pet, if you cath my drift
Women and failed men(a lot of you) appreciate Harry Potter for two distinct reasons:
1. Its aesthetics are reminiscent of peak white culture (therefore peak world culture), in that it is a boarding school setting therefore the kids must either have wealthy parents, or, in this case, some unique disposition (magical abilities) which sets them apart from "le other [girls / proles / muggles). The setting itself is absolutely peak white culture, in a cold rural setting within an ancient castle, whose professor speak in RP accents etc. Consider that both Emma Watson and (((Daniel Radcliffe))) were both privately educated at similar IRL schools, and therefore fit their respective roles perfectly (with state-schooled Rupert fitting his role as the Oliver-esque poorfag). It's life on easymode essentially, with no worries about money throughout ones childhood or adolescent, and a guaranteed job at the end. Balls, gowns, ancient portraits, all make for the upper class environment girls love because it affords them a sense of superiority and distinction from their peers (plus a choice of equally upper class guys).
2. The fighting in Harry Potter is not done by hands or traditional weaponry, something very unique in fiction. Even Star Wars has lightsabers and laser guns, both advanced versions of swords and rifles (masculine). Instead Hermione can use her nerdiness to battle her enemies (using her academic knowledge and bookishness) and even if she is forced into combat, it isn't as if she has to adopt the nu-feminist idea that "gurls are just as strong as boys hehe!" as seen in many modern movies where some "badass" dyke karate kills ten guys twice her size. Instead she can muster all her repressed energy (which is abundant in nerdy girls) and use it to create a force which shoots from her wand (which satisfies her penis envy) to overwhelm the inner force of her enemies.
It's the ideal low IQ female-friendly story. Rowling is nothing more than a bargain bin Le Guin
>>212790808>teen boy protagonist isn’t horny He was extremely horny for Ginny in the 6th book
>most powerful force is loveJust like it is most of fiction and mythloogy
>main villain is le evil because he is an incel creepNo he's evil because he believes mortals and half-blooded people are racially inferior to full-blooded wizards. He resents the fact that Wizards have to hide their power and live among mortals as equals when they could be gods.
>also pretty much all antagonists are described as “ugly” in various ways which is, again, a very woman brained thingDrago, Lockhart, Tom Riddle (before his experiments) were all described as handsome
>>212790907Don't talk shit about dark academia (for children) ever again.
>>212790905I get it, you'd use your skills to brew up some potions for her cat.
>>212790907You're actually kinda stupid but I don't feel like explaining why line by line
>>212790808>Teen boy protagonist isn’t hornyHe spends a whole book pining over cho, and then Ron's sister.
He isn't constantly jerking off and thinking about tits because its a YA novel
