5085: In this world and the next - Hermione Granger

[pottersues]

I’m still using certain words to find stories. That said, I think this is important to say before people go into today’s entry. Yes, individuals with mental illness have bad days. Yes, they have issues they have to deal with. I’m probably not the only one who is fed up with writers treating the character they attach the given mental illness onto as

Maybe we should make the tag HINO to mean Hermione In Name Only too

"AU- Snape survives. " I have NEVER seen this done well. NEVER

I can see tackling mental illness with the trio, but an eating disorder? The only people we see eating a lot are Harry and Ron, and it's meant to be them simply being teenage boys.

I like that idea given the fact he is the male character HINO is most done for and she is the female character that is most done for.

What gets me is that Rowling has actually openly said that Hermione isn't one of those girls while Pansy in fact is. I remember this because on her old site long before Pottermore she'd brought up a discussion she had with one of the male actors reading a female friend and his concerns regarding the issue of eating disorders. What she said was she wanted her girls to be like Hermione, strong females who had pride in themselves, yet over and over we see these stories where Hermione isn't that.

So yeah - I agree with the adding of her name to HINO.
