Topic	Would you date a Harry Potter Adult? Like 'still waiting for their letter'
FortuneCookie 09/18/23 11:56:53 AM #33:	NoxObscuras posted... I'd have no problem dating a "Star Wars Adult" or a "Disney Adult." I think people are far too judgemental about that sort of thing. That said though, for Harry Potter, specifically, I'd be hesitant. Because with the bigotry of JK Rowling, everyone I know has distanced themselves from the IP. They still look back fondly on the fun memories they had with the books and the movies, but they don't actively support it anymore. So someone that's still very actively supporting the franchise would make me think they are okay with the bigotry James Bond and Mickey Mouse were created by bigots. There is a term for this. It's called Death of the Author. Fans can absolutely disassociate themselves from the views of a content creator while still enjoying the content. I can't blame anyone for dropping a series because of it. But if they want to continue to be a fan, it's not the same as supporting what the content creator stands for. <cite>FortuneCookie posted [p:976148959] in Would you ...
