History WMG / HarryPotterRealWorldTheories

Wizards were much more tolerant than muggles around the time and social circles of thefounders of Hogwarts. By the time the muggle world considered homosexuality and bisexuality to be labels rather than actions, the wizarding world had already skipped the stage where LGBT (or at least LGB) wizards would have been persecuted. However, since there are so few wizards around compared both to muggles and to how much of the planet is inhabited by wizards (most of it, sparsely), few gay/bisexual people meet each other so they end up old bachelors/spinsters, and because the magical world is so tolerant, gay wizards don't need a [[TheBeard beard]], and thus don't pass on their genetics nearly as often. Wizards thus only pass on the traits that increase the likelihood of being gay through recessive and heterosexually advantageous ways, meaning that wizards have fewer gay people because they are more tolerant of them.

* IJustWantToBeNormal: Invoked by Rita Skeeter and {{Justified}}. While, at first glance, being TheChosenOne seems awesome, Harry is basically BlessedWithSuck: a mind connection with a dangerous sociopath which he cannot control, a sociopath who has been trying to kill him since he was a baby. He lives in a CrapsaccharineWorld, grows up being withheld important information, raised to be a LivingMacGuffin, and seeing people die in front of him, all because of being TheChosenOne. It's no wonder he'd just prefer being normal.

Because the [[Franchise/MetalGear Patriots]] don't want American children to be thinking too much about Philosophers.
