    The pro-sports was always there, none of them were really queer coded, she didn’t partner with Disney, they never really fought the status quo, just kinda complained sometimes, and magic never really changed anyone’s gender. We see women only look like men using magic in the last book, ever other transformation was in the same gender, because jkr can’t imagine gender changing. Thd books and author sucks but learn what you’re talking about before speaking.

      The pro-sports was always there

      The rec-league shit was there as a rhetorical device to build drama and advance the plot. Book 2’s use of Quidditch as this insanely dangerous sport that puts you in the hospital was good aktuly.

      she didn’t partner with Disney

      It was Warner Bros. My mistake.

      they never really fought the status quo, just kinda complained sometimes

      The first three books were genuinely anti-establishment in character. Book 3, in particular, did a great job of painting the institutional world as cruel, corrupt, incompetent, and plagued by bigotry.

      magic never really changed anyone’s gender

      The Polyjuice Potion does this on a number of occasions.

      Thd books and author sucks but learn what you’re talking about before speaking.
