I don't see how it would be any sort of problem to add LGBT+ representation to Harry Potter.
There are straight relationships, so why not others?

Literally just having Dean and Seamus hold hands would be nice c':

like it doesn't need to be explicity told or shown in elaborate scenes

show same sex couples walking hand in hand in the halls, dancing at the yule ball, etc

No, I want it explicitly stated. I want the gayest scenes.
I want bold, brilliant, undeniable gayness.
Because I am tired of the Gay being treated like some unspeakable thing, tired of people thinking "oh, don't do/post/say that around the kids!" as if being gay is inherently 18+.
There are gay kids, there are bi kids. There are confused kids who think they're freaks because there are no representation of LGBT+ relationships for kids.
I don't want another "oh ya Dumbeldore is gay" 50 years after the books are published with no definable or definite textual evidence to support it.
I want evidence! I want representation!

Yeh I'm just saying those things as examples of how effortless it'd really be, even if you don't want sex/relationships to be a big theme and such. It's just as easy as literally ever work ever that shows any form of relationship. Just do the exact same only with people of the same gender and so forth c':

I think it would be effortless either way.
I just don't want any more 'background gay'.
Or anymore dead gays.
I want alive, happy gays.

I'm not a big comic person.

The last series I binged/followed had the best lgbta+ representation I've ever seen, with canon trans characters and basically 80% of ships being gay/lesbian and canon and valid :P

HP pales in comparison, sadly. Along with many many other media I've ever consumed :c

its almost sad that I was so shocked to see a Transformers comic give me so much representation. It literally baffled me reading a scene where one character literally outs herself AND her girlfriend as trans and that they'd like others to now use she pronouns for them. More baffling that the ones they're talking to are like 'oh ok sure' and its shown as such an easy, normal thing.

Like come on people if a comic centering around alien robots can do it with ease...
