Come Out & Play: Hermione
Today’s Come Out & Play post spotlights Hermione.
If you happen to be Amish, live under a rock, or were raised in a strict Christian household, then you probably have no idea who Hermione is. Everyone else knows the name of her creator, just as easy as they would the name of 1st President of the United States. Move over George Washington, enter J.K. Rolling — the brilliant mind behind the ever-popular Harry Potter series.
Hermione Granger is one of three central characters is the series. She’s Harry’s best friend and Ron’s love interest. And sorry ladies, she isn’t gay. Though many lesbians around the world suspect that she is, maybe even hope that she is. I doubt Rolling will come forward and announce Hermione’s sexuality as she did with Dumbledore. But, in the world of fiction anything is possible.
Here’s a video, courtesy of YouTube, of what Hermione’s “coming out” would be like. And a special shout out goes to the venerable Diana Ross for penning hit single, “I’m coming out.” Without which we might never be able to fully visualize Hermione’s plight. Enjoy!
