No but seriously why is Lily’s patronus so unnecessarily gendered?
JKR said this in a interview in 2007:
Question: James patronus is a stag and lilys a doe is that a coincidence? J.K. Rowling: No, the Patronus often mutates to take the image of the love of one's life (because they so often become the 'happy thought' that generates a Patronus).
I’m assuming it was Lily’s patronus that changed not James because he already had a stag animagus at 15 and the only other person we know both their patronus and animagus form is Mcgonagall and they are both cats. So if Lily's patronus changed to be “the image of the love of her life” why is it a doe not a stag? How is a doe the image of James? Snape's patronus is apparently the "image of lily" and it appears as a doe instead of a stag to match his respective gender. What is going on?
(also guys im looking for a watsonian reason. I know the real answer is JKR's adherence to the gender binary)

I don't know if many of you have Tik Tok (personally I don't, I hate it), but a friend ( @emilover-1 ) shared me something that I felt the necessity to share BECAUSE IT'S SO COOL
This tik tok here
Anyway for the new people in my blog that somehow have arrived in this last days/almost a week... Hi, welcome. I don't know where you all came from but I appreciate you all's presence 👋🏻
I wanted to use this opportunity not only for you all to support that because I can't (lol, still send support) but also to add an analysis I did time ago to complement
And also here's there a post for Mori's reaction with the burnt coat in case anyone's interested—
If that person sees this... Hi :D you are cool, your post is amazing 🥰
Where does the idea of selfish Severus Snape and his possessive love come from? Do people really believe that Snape died in the Shrieking Shack at 38, at the hands of Voldemort? Do they honestly think that, until he was 38, he lived a normal, happy life, full of hope and dreams, right up until that last minute when everything was suddenly ripped away from him?
Snape didn’t just die in that moment. His life ended 18 years earlier, when he was 20 years old, standing on a hill in front of Dumbledore. That’s when he gave up everything—his freedom, his future, and his life—in exchange for the safety of the Potter family: James, Lily, and Harry.
From that moment on, Snape no longer lived for himself. He had no control over his own fate; his life had been bargained away to protect others. Every step he took after that was part of a long, ongoing sacrifice.
People say they don’t like Snape because he didn’t make up for his mistakes the way he should have, that his redemption arc wasn’t complete. Excuse me? I’m not sure what more a person can give than their life. What’s more precious than their time and youth? What’s more important than their freedom? Snape sacrificed all of that—what else did he even have left to give?
He was barely out of his teenage years when he chose to give up everything—his youth, his dreams, his ambitions, even his loyalty—for people who didn’t care about him. Yet, Snape stayed on that path with unwavering courage for the next 18 years, never backing down.
In truth, Severus Snape was a boy who lost his life at 20. The only thing is, they didn’t bury him until he was 38.
