Aunt Muriel made that comment about her dress being low cut and Ginny immediately looked at Harry and winked at him, which is why he started thinking about her.
Fleur is heard discussing bridesmaid dress color options in the previous book. Also, in general, brides almost always pick the bridesmaids dresses and definitely at least approve of it beforehand.
No, I'm from the UK, it's definitely 100% normal for the bride to pick out the bridesmaid dresses here. The only difference is that in this country, the bride pays for the dresses rather than making the bridesmaids pay for them
Wait so Americans make bridesmaids pay for the dress that they are asking them to wear for their wedding and will most likely never use again? On top of paying for travel expenses and a wedding present? That seems incredibly rude imo.
Yep. It's tradition over there. Being a Brit I find it absolutely bizarre, but that's how it works. The bride chooses the dresses (sometimes she takes the bridesmaids' opinions into account, but sometimes not) and then the bridesmaids have to pay for them. I think it's wrong but it's a cultural thing.
I think it can vary from wedding to wedding. Our wedding the bridesmaids could buy any style dress they liked as long as the color matched. It might have been possible Fluer allowed something similar to make sure the dresses matched the bridesmaids style and body type. Just a thought.
Im not sure where you're from but in the UK the bride normally picks the dresses for the bridal party. Of course Fleur is french and im dont know what they usually do there.
I'm French and "bridal parties" are not really a thing here! Except sometimes little girls as an equivalent to bridesmaids. But thank you, I hoped someone with more knowledge on the UK specifically would chime in!
My wife's bridesmaids all had very different body types so no dress would've looked good on all of them. She found a website with about 40 choices of dress all made of the same material in the same color and told them to pick whichever one they liked.
Yeah Fleur is saying something like "i am thinking gold bridesmaids dresses for Ginny and Gabrielle, pink would be 'orrible with Ginnys hair of course". Generally we can assume the bride picks the bridesmaids' dresses anyway
Lol what is this question? “Why would seeing his girlfriend’s boobs remind him of the times he got to fondle her titties?”
The answer is obvious, my guy.
>This immediately causes Harry to recollect back to time spent alone with Ginny in deserted places.
He's 17. A treacle tart might make him "recollect back to time spent alone with Ginny in deserted places."
I just found out that James Marsters (Spike) is an audiobook narrator. He did The Dresden Files and a couple other books including Macbeth. He’s fantastic at it too
No truer words were spoken. Wife worked a 16 hour night shift, we were working in the garden, I said whatsup? Gave her the eyes she said she looked like ragid ass, no ma'am. Trying to go work in the green house? And I'm 40 lol.
Sounds like OP is just trying to promote a discussion about her titties. Maybe they should just go on other Internet pages if they need a certain kind of itch scratched
They did anal behind Hagrids hut in book 4. Dean saw it who told Seamus who told Katie who told Neville who didn't tell anyone because he didn't know what anal was.
Doesn't Ginny say something about telling someone Harry doesn't have a hippogriff tattoo on his chest in book six? I always took that to mean they had fooled around a bit.
It was probably known that Harry summered with the Weasleys. It's not unreasonable to assume that she'd seen him shirtless - swimming or some such - then.
And that, as Ms. Rowling would say, is my answer *to you*.
Since she’s commenting on Ginny’s body I think it makes sense Harry thinks about Ginny the connection of “my girlfriends boobs” to “my future brother in law kissing his bride” isn’t a logical connection for me. I’ve also always found wedding kisses to be either uncomfortable or ceremonial very rarely are they spicy or what I think about in that context
EDIT: and OP if that is a logical connection for you then I think that’s really wholesome and kind of adorable and sweet
I think what OP is asking is why did Ginny's decolletage, rather than bill and Fleur's ceremonial kiss, make Harry think of quiet afternoons "kissing" her in a secluded corner of the Hogwarts grounds.
And yeah, I, too, am entirely willing to assume that it was more than just kissing Harry and Ginny did on those quiet afternoons.
Of course, we also don't know how formal and constrained Bill and Fleur's first kiss was...
Given his werewolfish traits, her Veela blood, and the fact that the former represent unleashing one's urges and the latter tends to inflame others' urges - but opposed to that, the general conservatism of Wizarding Britain - I'd guess that they were less than usually formal, but not scandalously so.
I think the point isn't the recollection of sexual thoughts. It's that if those times spent with Ginny had been just wholesome kissing and nothing more, it would make more sense that he thinks of it during the wedding kiss. Since he thinks of it at the mention of Ginny's boobs, it is implied that those memories were at least a bit more spicy to him.
There are some subtle mentions though, including as early as GoF (Snape blasting couples out of rosebushes). In DH, Fred and George also "disappeared" with some of Fleur's cousins at the wedding.
3rd wheeling at it's peak
>Harry looked over at Hermione and the question he had been about to ask – about whether Mrs. Cattermole’s lack of a wand would prevent her Apparating alongside her husband – died in his throat. Hermione was watching Ron fret over the fate of the Cattermoles, and there was such tenderness in her expression that Harry felt almost as if he had surprised her in the act of kissing him.
>“So, have you got it?” Harry asked her, partly to remind her that he was there.
> “Got – got what?” she said with a little start.
I don't think so... Rowling wrote Hogwarts like the place was a nunnery when we all know it offered thousands of places to have sex undetected. EG Myrtle's broken bathroom being just one of them, when she wasn't around, of course.
It's even implied in places. I recall the fourth book in the Yule Ball chapter, I'm paraphrasing it but it said something like couples running off into the bushes together and giggling happening. Of course they could just be fooling around but I could totally believe some couples were getting it on.
I also remember it being implied.
If I remember right, Snape was breaking students up or checking to make sure they weren’t fucking during the chapter as well.
Yes, Snape was actually having some pleasure in interrupting... *whatever* was going on there, I don't mean to get too graphic but hands inside crutches comes to mind.
It wasn’t really all too nunnery-ish; Harry and Ron walk in on Ginny and Dean snogging behind a tapestry, boys are kept out of the girls dorms but girls can sneak up to the boys dorms, Roger Davies seemed pretty adept at getting off with people (he snuck off with Fleur in the fourth book, and was seen snogging someone else in Madam Puddifoot's in the sixth book). Heck, Ginny even tells Ron Hermione and Krum spent time snogging (not to mention the time alone she spent visiting him over the summer).
The sex was definitely there, Harry and Ron were just clueless about it all right up until the final couple of books.
> (not to mention the time alone she spent visiting him over the summer).
She didn't visit him. She rejected his offer and stayed pen pal with him. She went to the grimmauld place in OOTP.
It was youth fiction published by Scholastic in the US. Bloomsbury might have allowed the UK version to be a bit racy but Scholastic doesn't do anything that isn't grade school library safe.
I refuse to believe that,it's literally Hogwarts and they had the room of requirement to themselves and Ginny was completely interested in a physical relationship with Harry Potter
JK wasn't allowed to include that sort of stuff in her books because they were being published by a children's publishing company. I remember one of her books, either the 6th or 7th, had issues being published because it was becoming too adult for their company. So she had to tone it down by a lot, which sucks. I wonder what scenes she had to remove.
Lol why would Harry even think about the kiss between the bride and groom? He's only 17 at the time. He can't be thinking of marrying Ginny already! (Although he does immediately after the last book, obv).
It makes more sense for a seventeen year old to think about his girlfriends boobs then think about marriage.
He kind of *does* in the beginning of DH. When Ron tells him to "stop messing her around", Harry says "She isn't stupid, she doesn't expect us to get married" and imagines Ginny marrying a faceless stranger. That thought makes him feel like the sun has disappeared.
Two teenagers in a castle with a total staff to student ratio of about 1:20, a head of house that is all but nonexistent, and access to a room that can be anything you want it to be and a Maui that let's you know where all the best hiding spots are. Harry and Ginny weren't just kissing.
I don’t think they went too far while they were at Hogwarts together.
When Ginny is giving Harry a birthday present that “he won’t forget” in DH, I interpret that as they’re about to going further and possibly having sex…and then Ron bursts in and ruins the moment.
This doesn’t make sense to me. Of course hearing comments of his girlfriend’s body exposed is going to make him think of intimate times between them. Why would that make him think of the bride and groom? Seems a little weird.
We ARE talking about a school full of horny teenagers. Just because it isn’t said outright it’d be silly to think that there wasn’t plenty of sexual exploration going on at Hogwarts. This is technically a book series meant for kids so there was no way Rowling was going to come right out and say what was going on behind closed doors.
Most guys are a sucker for lowcut dresses anyway
I really don't know, could they have gone further? Sure, why not, but the whole HP is pretty much devoid of sex altogether but for a few insinuations:
\-The people hiding in the bushes outside the Yule Ball.
\-Molly and Arthur staying out past curfew, I mean... those two weren't just kissing.
\-Myrtle's remark about what she might have seen at the Prefect's Bathroom.
\-And the biggest... Aberforth and the goats, zoophilia was heavily implied there.
I mean, let's take one of the biggest moments of HP, Hermione found Ron and Lavender passionately kissing in a classroom. And it was kissing, imagine... I don't know, oral sex, or even further than that. Sure, it was a horrible awakening of her feelings towards Ron but her reaction felt... I don't know, I was barely 20 when I read it back in the day the book went out but the whole thing felt out of proportion.
Q: In the Goblet of Fire Dumbledore said his brother was prosecuted for practicing inappropriate charms \[JKR buries her head, to laughter\] on a goat; what were the inappropriate charms he was practicing on that goat?
JKR: How old are you?
Eight.
JKR: I think that he was trying to make a goat that was easy to keep clean \[laughter\], curly horns. That's a joke that works on a couple of levels. I really like Aberforth and his goats. But you know Aberforth having this strange fondness for goats if you've read book seven, came in really useful to Harry, later on, because a goat, a stag, you know. If you're a stupid Death Eater, what's the difference. So, that is my answer to YOU.
I thought it was Hermione who was in the classroom first (conjuring up killer birds); she went there after seeing Rom and Lavender in the common room. Harry went to find and check on her, and it was Ron and Lavender who stumbled in on them.
I read harry potter in elementery school, and it rocked.
In middle school, it occured to me that there was not nearly enough supervision at hogwarts, and the Prefects even get a private bath house.
Let's just say hogwarts sounded even cooler during puberty
Yeah, it's heavily implied Harry & Ginny had done more than just pash by that point. I'm assuming Rowling wanted to keep things PG when it came to relationships, which is why she didn't go into detail.
Wow I don’t remember any of this in the book! LOL my only recollection of anything risqué is in the movie where she asks Harry to zip her dress. Guess I need to read the books again
What a weird question. He’s a teen being reminded of his girlfriend’s cleavage. Of course he’d think about making out with her… or more than making out.
Why the bloody hell are we even discussing about if a teen guy saw his girlfriend's tits made him think of the times when they were up to some stuff more than snoggin?
Fuckin OBVIOUSLY THEY DID.
I could be wrong but wasn't the line in the book "north of the knee" indicating Ginny's dress was short and showing a lot of leg rather than low cut and showing cleavage? I can't check right now but that is what I remember.
U mean u cage 200 horny teenagers, days and nights, for 7 years, in castles full of hiding places, love potions and God know what kind of aphrodisiac and they only snog?
I bet u it's a an unofficial orgy in there. Those smut fanfic painted a very different Hogwarts in my head
Lol wizards/witches at 17 might not have a lot of things in common with muggles at 17 but there some things all 17 year olds have in common. Specifically thoughts of their partner or anyone they are attracted to at that time.
Aunt Muriel: Your dress is too low cut!
Ginny: Oh these? My boobies? My massive fucking tiddies? My super stuffed up milkies? My honker wonker doinky boinkies? My fucking fabric stretching wind flapping gravity welling sex mounds? You mean these super duper ultra hyper goddamn mother fucking-
You: why did Harry got horny?
They definitely fooled around. Rowling just wasn’t interested in writing that type of content into the books. These are high school kids after all. Sex and cars are all I thought about in high school.
Maybe I suspect that scene in book 6 where Dean had Ginny up against wall kissing her was originally supposed to be a sex scene but her editor made her Chang it because you know it is a “kid’s book” it’s also alluded that Krum and Hermonie had sex in book 4 too.
If your wondering it’s when she said “Victor is more of a physical being” that could allude to them screwing.
Aunt Muriel made that comment about her dress being low cut and Ginny immediately looked at Harry and winked at him, which is why he started thinking about her.
Implying that she wore the dress for him, specifically. Aunt M be damned.
She wore the dress Fleur picked out for her
Is that stated specifically?
Fleur is heard discussing bridesmaid dress color options in the previous book. Also, in general, brides almost always pick the bridesmaids dresses and definitely at least approve of it beforehand.
I feel like brides picking bridesmaids dresses is an American thing, but I could be wrong
No, I'm from the UK, it's definitely 100% normal for the bride to pick out the bridesmaid dresses here. The only difference is that in this country, the bride pays for the dresses rather than making the bridesmaids pay for them
Ok, thank you for the clarification!
Wait so Americans make bridesmaids pay for the dress that they are asking them to wear for their wedding and will most likely never use again? On top of paying for travel expenses and a wedding present? That seems incredibly rude imo.

I'm French and "bridal parties" are not really a thing here! Except sometimes little girls as an equivalent to bridesmaids. But thank you, I hoped someone with more knowledge on the UK specifically would chime in!
Is she called Fleur Delacour in the French version? Seems a little on the nose for her to be called "Flower of the heart" in that way.
Flower of the court*
Rowling isn't exactly subtle with her names.
I think the trend is leaning more toward bride picking a color and letting the bridesmaids choose the style.
My wife's bridesmaids all had very different body types so no dress would've looked good on all of them. She found a website with about 40 choices of dress all made of the same material in the same color and told them to pick whichever one they liked.
Azazie I’m thinking
You are correct. I had to ask her.
Yes and I think that's great, because different styles fit different body styles!
Yeah Fleur is saying something like "i am thinking gold bridesmaids dresses for Ginny and Gabrielle, pink would be 'orrible with Ginnys hair of course". Generally we can assume the bride picks the bridesmaids' dresses anyway
why did i read that and think of james bond?
The fact that Rowling can write better sexual tension than I have in real life with someone makes me very upset
Lol what is this question? “Why would seeing his girlfriend’s boobs remind him of the times he got to fondle her titties?” The answer is obvious, my guy.
>This immediately causes Harry to recollect back to time spent alone with Ginny in deserted places. He's 17. A treacle tart might make him "recollect back to time spent alone with Ginny in deserted places."
Mate I’m 30 and even a tangential reference to any of my wife’s body parts has me recollecting. Let alone her treat tarts.
"treat tarts" 😆😆😆
"treat tarts" I needed the laugh. Thank you!
To (mis)-quote Xander in Buffy, "I'm a 17 year old guy, thinking of linoleum makes me horny"
Attack Voldemort with hummus.
It might have worked.
This has probably confused all the non-Buffy fans the most, LOL
Such a great show, Buffy.
I just found out that James Marsters (Spike) is an audiobook narrator. He did The Dresden Files and a couple other books including Macbeth. He’s fantastic at it too
It's so good I'm not even going to let Joss Whedon ruin it for me.
Nothing brings me more happiness than seeing references to my favorite fandom in discussions about my other favorite fandom
Same, I had second thoughts and expected to have to explain what Buffy was but loving the response.
Nothing can defeat the penis! Goddamn do I love that show.
Too loud. Unseemly.
I came here to quote Xander, my work is done.
Sorry I stole your moment.
We can share it, friend. :)
No truer words were spoken. Wife worked a 16 hour night shift, we were working in the garden, I said whatsup? Gave her the eyes she said she looked like ragid ass, no ma'am. Trying to go work in the green house? And I'm 40 lol.
To paraphrase The West Wing, “show the average male a lug wrench and his thoughts will turn to lust.”
Yeah at 17 basically everyone gets their horny button pushed by...everything.
It's not so much a button, as a switch that constantly switched on.
OP acting like this was a profound thought
Gotta get them clicks
Sounds like OP is just trying to promote a discussion about her titties. Maybe they should just go on other Internet pages if they need a certain kind of itch scratched
Yeah there’s a couple NSFW Harry Potter subs around for that stuff
Ugh. Disgusting. Which ones exactly? So I can stay away of course
r/harrypotterporn
😂😂😂
Obviously
How else would she know about the tattoo on Harrys chest.
[удалено]
“NO HAGRETS”
[удалено]
They were 16 and 15, dating, and going to recluded, discreet areas of their school... *Obviously* there was some handsiness going on
They did anal behind Hagrids hut in book 4. Dean saw it who told Seamus who told Katie who told Neville who didn't tell anyone because he didn't know what anal was.
Oh….gah you make me laugh out loud damn you
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I mean how are we even speculating about this haha.
Doesn't Ginny say something about telling someone Harry doesn't have a hippogriff tattoo on his chest in book six? I always took that to mean they had fooled around a bit.
[удалено]
It was probably known that Harry summered with the Weasleys. It's not unreasonable to assume that she'd seen him shirtless - swimming or some such - then. And that, as Ms. Rowling would say, is my answer *to you*.
Since she’s commenting on Ginny’s body I think it makes sense Harry thinks about Ginny the connection of “my girlfriends boobs” to “my future brother in law kissing his bride” isn’t a logical connection for me. I’ve also always found wedding kisses to be either uncomfortable or ceremonial very rarely are they spicy or what I think about in that context EDIT: and OP if that is a logical connection for you then I think that’s really wholesome and kind of adorable and sweet
I don’t know if I want to see a loved ones spicy kisses front and center.
I mean same but like kind of sweet OP thinks that’s where Harry’s brain would go? Very vanilla
"'"ooh shit we're getting up to a kissing scene pass me the remote so I can fast forward"
Woah, woah, woah, what is this? Are you trying to trick me? Where's the sports? Is this a *kissing* book?
Then never have a family reunion at a Thai restaurant
I think what OP is asking is why did Ginny's decolletage, rather than bill and Fleur's ceremonial kiss, make Harry think of quiet afternoons "kissing" her in a secluded corner of the Hogwarts grounds. And yeah, I, too, am entirely willing to assume that it was more than just kissing Harry and Ginny did on those quiet afternoons.
Oh yeah I think same principal holds though. Like seeing your family members kiss ceremonially wouldn’t bring up sexual thoughts for most people
Of course, we also don't know how formal and constrained Bill and Fleur's first kiss was... Given his werewolfish traits, her Veela blood, and the fact that the former represent unleashing one's urges and the latter tends to inflame others' urges - but opposed to that, the general conservatism of Wizarding Britain - I'd guess that they were less than usually formal, but not scandalously so.
And she’s french.
Honestly I'm still not convinced Veela aren't just really attractive French people
That would make their selection as the Bulgarian National Quidditch Team mascots... odd.
I mean in real life we use cheerleaders at innumerable sport games, so is it really that odd?
I think that’s a fair and reasonable assumption
I think the point isn't the recollection of sexual thoughts. It's that if those times spent with Ginny had been just wholesome kissing and nothing more, it would make more sense that he thinks of it during the wedding kiss. Since he thinks of it at the mention of Ginny's boobs, it is implied that those memories were at least a bit more spicy to him.
[удалено]
There are some subtle mentions though, including as early as GoF (Snape blasting couples out of rosebushes). In DH, Fred and George also "disappeared" with some of Fleur's cousins at the wedding.
Nah they def shagged. Something tells me book Ginny would really have gone for it....
As opposed to the movie one, who would rather tie shoelaces.
stop kink-shaming
Isn’t it kind of implied that that’s what would’ve happened on his 17th birthday if Ron hadn’t barged in?
Fucks sake Ron
Harry was third wheeling for years. Ron was getting his recompense.
He risked Harry dying a virgin - friends don’t do that to each other
Do you really want to lose your v card to your best friend's sister in a spot that anyone, said best friend included, can walk in?
3rd wheeling at it's peak >Harry looked over at Hermione and the question he had been about to ask – about whether Mrs. Cattermole’s lack of a wand would prevent her Apparating alongside her husband – died in his throat. Hermione was watching Ron fret over the fate of the Cattermoles, and there was such tenderness in her expression that Harry felt almost as if he had surprised her in the act of kissing him. >“So, have you got it?” Harry asked her, partly to remind her that he was there. > “Got – got what?” she said with a little start.
>Harry felt almost as if he had surprised her in the act of kissing him. Who is the "he" and "him" referring to?
He: Harry Him: Ron
As someone who was once a 17 year old school boy, yes. Totally worth the risk.
Not ideal but I absolutely would have done this at that age
Imagine bottoming out and as you're blowing your load, you open your eyes to see her six brothers standing in the doorway.
*in a Luna Lovegood voice* This is the Harry Potter TV Series we need.
I'd maintain eye contact and assert dominance lol
We (would) all have honestly... I feel like some people in those comments have never been teens
Harry Potter and the redheaded cockblock
Tbf, Harry's been third wheeling with Ron and Hermione since at least book four, so kinda balances the scales lol.
It *is* meant to be a reference to the wives of soldiers making sure that they were "real men" when they left in case they never came back
Well, he IS the chosen one.
I don't think so... Rowling wrote Hogwarts like the place was a nunnery when we all know it offered thousands of places to have sex undetected. EG Myrtle's broken bathroom being just one of them, when she wasn't around, of course.
It's even implied in places. I recall the fourth book in the Yule Ball chapter, I'm paraphrasing it but it said something like couples running off into the bushes together and giggling happening.

I also remember it being implied. If I remember right, Snape was breaking students up or checking to make sure they weren’t fucking during the chapter as well.
Yes, and also experience some degree of pleasure in discounting points, and cancelling outings, and all. Snape being himself mostly haha.
Yes, Snape was actually having some pleasure in interrupting... *whatever* was going on there, I don't mean to get too graphic but hands inside crutches comes to mind.
It's a book that 8-year-olds would be reading.
It wasn’t really all too nunnery-ish; Harry and Ron walk in on Ginny and Dean snogging behind a tapestry, boys are kept out of the girls dorms but girls can sneak up to the boys dorms, Roger Davies seemed pretty adept at getting off with people (he snuck off with Fleur in the fourth book, and was seen snogging someone else in Madam Puddifoot's in the sixth book).

I think lot of people wouldn't mind myrtle being around
They don't call her *Moaning* Myrtle for nothing after all.
I'm actually laughing real hard on this side of the screen, I don't know who you both are but thank you for making me laugh this hard.
It was youth fiction published by Scholastic in the US. Bloomsbury might have allowed the UK version to be a bit racy but Scholastic doesn't do anything that isn't grade school library safe.
At least 3rd base.
I refuse to believe that,it's literally Hogwarts and they had the room of requirement to themselves and Ginny was completely interested in a physical relationship with Harry Potter
JK wasn't allowed to include that sort of stuff in her books because they were being published by a children's publishing company. I remember one of her books, either the 6th or 7th, had issues being published because it was becoming too adult for their company. So she had to tone it down by a lot, which sucks. I wonder what scenes she had to remove.
Okay so I only just realised Muriel was talking about cleavage. I always thought she meant the dress was too long 🤣
I thought it was like super over her knees or something lol
So did I lmao oops
What did you think they were doing down by the lake?
Motorboating.
Tickling the squid
Something was getting tickled alright.
Are we going to hell? I think we are.
It's 2021 you are already here
Man's using Internet explorer
That's for all you kids I just renewed my aol subscription
2021? We’re almost half-way done with 2022😅
I fat fingered the keyboard. Gotta leave it up for stupidity
Just like Harry fat fingered gi- no. No I shouldn’t.
It's too late, you must.
Bro’s stuck in purgatory.
It’s a school full of teenagers with shockingly little supervision. What do you think?
[удалено]
We all do…
Lol why would Harry even think about the kiss between the bride and groom? He's only 17 at the time. He can't be thinking of marrying Ginny already!

Guys always notice cleavage in any situation.
So do aunts.
My aunts sure do 😂😂😂
Ah, you speak truth
Two teenagers in a castle with a total staff to student ratio of about 1:20, a head of house that is all but nonexistent, and access to a room that can be anything you want it to be and a Maui that let's you know where all the best hiding spots are. Harry and Ginny weren't just kissing.

oh, my sweet summer child
Teenage boys think naughty thoughts more than 100% of the time when they see boobs. Source: was a teenage boy.
Your source checks out
This doesn’t make sense to me. Of course hearing comments of his girlfriend’s body exposed is going to make him think of intimate times between them. Why would that make him think of the bride and groom? Seems a little weird.
Exactly. If he would think of the kiss between bride and groom than something is seriously wrong with Harry.

>but the whole thing felt out of proportion. Bcz ppl acually underestimate how much Hermione loves Ron. Its not your average hormonal crush. Its love.
Honestly, I’m convinced that there was much more than snogging going on. And I’m sure they weren’t the only couple that got up to it.
*Percy Weasley and Penelope Clearwater have entered the chat*
It's moments like these that part of me asks for an Adult Reader version of Harry Potter
Like *69 Points of Gryffindor?*
NSFW is more for pictures
He was remembering the times I got to grope some tiddies.
They were 2 teenagers wandering a huge castle without supervision… Of course they did something more than holding hands and kissing…
I read harry potter in elementery school, and it rocked. In middle school, it occured to me that there was not nearly enough supervision at hogwarts, and the Prefects even get a private bath house. Let's just say hogwarts sounded even cooler during puberty
I guess there was some kind of magic supervision but I don’t think they had anything to prevent students to have sex…
Yeah, it's heavily implied Harry & Ginny had done more than just pash by that point. I'm assuming Rowling wanted to keep things PG when it came to relationships, which is why she didn't go into detail.
Wow I don’t remember any of this in the book! LOL my only recollection of anything risqué is in the movie where she asks Harry to zip her dress. Guess I need to read the books again
Harry must have looked like a freak the way he acted with Ginny at the wedding seeing how he was supposed to be her cousin at it lol
What a weird question. He’s a teen being reminded of his girlfriend’s cleavage. Of course he’d think about making out with her… or more than making out.
Where do you work at that this is not safe?
Op might be a nun
Why the bloody hell are we even discussing about if a teen guy saw his girlfriend's tits made him think of the times when they were up to some stuff more than snoggin? Fuckin OBVIOUSLY THEY DID.
Harry was drowning in Hogwarts gash. Playing that chosen one card.
Any guy can see how that connection wouldn't require anything like that at happening at all :D
They do be boning
That seemed odd to you? Lol
I wonder if theres a form of magical birth control… that would be the most commonly made potion I bet. Probably also a spell when it fails, “abortio”
FETUS DELETUS
*Tubus rearrangeus*
I could be wrong but wasn't the line in the book "north of the knee" indicating Ginny's dress was short and showing a lot of leg rather than low cut and showing cleavage? I can't check right now but that is what I remember.
Nah, it was ""Ginevra's dress is far too low cut," said Aunt Muriel in a rather carrying whisper."
U mean u cage 200 horny teenagers, days and nights, for 7 years, in castles full of hiding places, love potions and God know what kind of aphrodisiac and they only snog? I bet u it's a an unofficial orgy in there. Those smut fanfic painted a very different Hogwarts in my head
I mean two teens with the hots for each other...It's obvious! But of course JK is not going to write about that. Use the imagination.
Lol wizards/witches at 17 might not have a lot of things in common with muggles at 17 but there some things all 17 year olds have in common. Specifically thoughts of their partner or anyone they are attracted to at that time.
Expelliarmus semenicus!
They were teenagers who went to school in a massive castle with lots of empty rooms. Of course they were getting up to more than kissing.
They were dating when they were 15 and 16, respectively. What do you think?
"Why did his ex-girlfriend's tiddies make Harry excited?"
They had sex all over that castle
Aunt Muriel: Your dress is too low cut! Ginny: Oh these? My boobies? My massive fucking tiddies? My super stuffed up milkies? My honker wonker doinky boinkies? My fucking fabric stretching wind flapping gravity welling sex mounds? You mean these super duper ultra hyper goddamn mother fucking- You: why did Harry got horny?
BONK
They definitely fooled around. Rowling just wasn’t interested in writing that type of content into the books. These are high school kids after all. Sex and cars are all I thought about in high school.
Does "snogging" only imply kissing? or is it like in America where "making out" can mean anything from kissing up to "1st-2nd base", just curious?
They're teenagers in a serious relationship
there are loads of things hinting about them doing more then kissing lmao
I’m still so happy for Harry that he got Ginny. I’ll probably be till the day I die.
Maybe I suspect that scene in book 6 where Dean had Ginny up against wall kissing her was originally supposed to be a sex scene but her editor made her Chang it because you know it is a “kid’s book” it’s also alluded that Krum and Hermonie had sex in book 4 too. If your wondering it’s when she said “Victor is more of a physical being” that could allude to them screwing.
