dangermousieOK, I came across this comment re: Deathly Hallows regarding Ron.
Someone was calling him a 'date rapist.'
WHAT??????????????????????????????????????
I must have missed that bit where he forced screaming Hermione to the floor. Or slipped rohypnol into Lavender's drink after finishing with Luna. Or incapacitated and had his way with Professor McGonagall.
THE HELL???
HOW? On what basis? WTF???
Man, he didn't even kiss Hermione first! She is the one who jumped him!
Fine, don't like Ron, I don't care. Heck, think he is not a good match for Hermione, I don't care (though I disagree).
But how about trying to have your character judgments in mildly the same universe as JKR's canon facts?
Just because Hermione picked him over Harry (who was emphatically never interested in her that way anyway which you could see from oh...book 3 on) does not mean Ron is the font of all evil.
Seriously. Harry/Hermione is the only ship I actively loathe because it has such loonies in it.*
* I am sure there are many lovely H/Hr shippers, but I've never seen so many nutty shippers as I did with that ship.
ETA: He is a date rapist, apparently, because he was reading an advice/self-help book on how to win a witch's heart. Umm. OK. Forget it, these people don't function on earth logic.
