What is your hottest and spiciest take about Harry Potter and the Wizarding World? And don’t hold back.

It's weird, because I'd expect this with a series that has a female MC. Yet Harry Potter has a more universal appeal with a strong cast that can appeal to a lot of people, like someone might see themselves in the shoes of Hagrid, Sirius, Lupin, or any of the older characters.

Just for whatever reason there seems to be a majority of women who are openly into the series. And a lot of the women who are really active in the fandom tend to be a lot like the fanboys people talked about. Along with so much of the talk about in the groups being more directed at the female half of the fandom, shipping and stuff like that.

So much male fans say gets ignored more while women just tend to interact with other women in these groups and they don't want to hang with guys irl. It's just a cliquish mess that I just don't feel welcome in even if I'm doing the sort of stuff any other women who are fans might. Like I said earlier it just echos the stuff that I have heard women hate from overzealous fanboys. It's not just being a minority in the fandom, like in the Bob's Burgers fandom I can get some fun interactions with other fans and I don't have to walk on eggshells with them.
