How successful would HP be if he were a girl? Also who is this generations JK?

>How successful would HP be if he were a girl
No clue. I think females find it easier to read from a male perspective than vice versa.

>who is this generations JK
I don't think there has been one yet.

it wouldn't have been succesful, that's also why her pen name is JK and not Joanne Kathleen, as per her editor's initial advice.

Why is this? Is it because boys don't like reading stories with a female lead? Alice in wonderland is popular with both genders all over the world.

Are there any hints of Rowling's ideology in HP books? I mean, we all thought it was the liberal series par excellence but it came out her author was a "radical".

Her works have genuinely a really good flow, she's a great writer. But she fails with the coherence of the story, many plot holes or nonsense explanations

They'll get made fun of and their friends will call them gay. Early on little boys learn to never show even a hint of interest in things with girls in them.

It's clear she hates feminity in woman. She thinks proper woman is more dominant and cool. Mother is ultimate form of woman. No idea how deep she is in trad mentality. But I wouldn't be suprised if she comes out and says womans place is in kitchen rising her children.

That's true for first 3 books. 4 is slow and convoluted. 5 could cut 200 pages. 6 is just usless book.
If she had just writen book about Harry's school life without much bigger plot. It would have been better then 4,5 and 6

She literally said if you were a Christian you’d be able to guess the ending of the series. Harry dies and experiences a heavenly vision (you might say) in the chapter titled ‘Kings Cross’. Is it a train station? Yes. Does it allude to Jesus? Yes.

It'll never happen again. There's too much competition for consumers' time across way too many forms of media, and most of it is also algorithmically served up to people to engage them specifically.

>> No.21649691

>>21649170
Yes, plenty. Even though there's loads of systemic issues, the narrative and the characters all attribute many of the faults of society (wizard or otherwise) to a few bad apples. Typical status quo fellating neoliberal nonsense (and I mean actual neoliberalism, not whatever dumbfuckery idiotic burgers think liberlism means).

She's an early 2000s centrist liberal and just hasn't changed her views. Transexualism was seen as a rare mental condition back then, not a society-defining social issue.tx4wvy

The development of woke Ideology can be mapped purely through harry potter. Harry potter used to be a right wing meme attacking the left "read another book" but now it has switched sides so much so that it is now right wing whereas leftist trannies seethe over it. Curious.

No. It was an extremist meme from all sides to make fun of "liberals".
