and the analogy with queers holds up even more if you consider hp to be about found family. Several themes in the book promote chosen identity over blood lines (muggles/half-bloods can be good at magic/ guy from Slytherin family gets to be on the good team in gryffindor cause of character). Which could have been a very nice moral except everything that's bad about traditional family values is just straight up copied and pasted upon this "new" (not new) model.
