Is Voldemort a virgin?

496 replies

And any other Harry Potter mysteries!

Can anyone answer mine?
Is Voldemort a virgin?
What happened to Rodolphus Lestrange?
Why do some spells take weeks and hours of homework to learn, yet Harry can imperious people by just saying it?

Anyone else? I've got more, can't think just now. Just finished re-reading!

When Moldy Voldy comes back in the film he doesn't have a nose, so seeing as a penis doesn't have bone like a nose id guess he is a virgin as he wouldn't of shagged bellatrix when he came back as I doubt he would of had a cock.

Unless he had shacked up with some of the girls at hogwarts and that was the real reason he was wandering around the corridors at night when he found Hagrid and Aragog.

Maybe he shagged Myrtle and she was so upset to then realise that he was the one that let the basilisk out and it killed her that she was too upset to tell the truth.

Lily and snape had surely had it off with each other during the school holidays for a while.

There is a lot of fan theory about sex in HP. I think the Death Eaters had orgies, Malfoy Manor seemed the perfect setting with all the dungeons. And Bellatrix was unquestionably into bloodplay and the like.

I don't think LV participated. I think he would've observed and controlled it all though.

Regarding Snape, LV says in the last battle that "there were other women, of purer blood" (I think I've got that right). So Snape was up to something with at least a few lasses, or at least he allowed LV to think he was. I personally always shipped Snape and Narcissa Malfoy Blush

In terms of schools and student numbers, in the last couple of weeks Pottermore just put out the details of other international wizard ivy schools.

And overseas boarding definitely happened; Draco's parents disagreed over sending him to Durmstrang.

rearoftheyear I think you mean when Harry is looking through Snapes memories, and he sees the one where Snape begs Voldemort to spare Lilly, that's when Voldemort says there are others of purer blood. I think Voldemort would have spared Lilly if she'd handed Harry over, but only as a reward for Snape bringing him information.

I can see Narcissa and Snape together, now it's been mentioned. After the unbreakable vow, when Lucius was in Azkaban. Or maybe even before, and that's why she felt she could confide in him.

I'm just looking now (because I am a loser Grin) Harry is carrying on about how SS's patronising was a doe etc, and LV says "He desired her, that was all, but when had gone he agreed that there were other women, and of purer blood, worthier of him-"

So now the bit about Snape agreeing makes me think he probably did just let LV think he was shagging pure blood women, when he was actually just a lonely old virgin pining his life away.

Which sucks, because I really do like Snape/Narcissa. The Unbreakable Vow was fraught with sexual tension!

And I think I shall confess now that I was once a very prolific writer of HP fic Blushso have thought way too much about this stuff

Patronising was a doe? Confused

I think Rear means Snape's patronus was a doe - because he never stopped loving Lily and hers was a doe too.



Thanks for starting this OP I love everyone here

Sorry Rear - didn't realise you'd questioned your own autocorrect Blush Although stupid how Harry Potter vocabulary isn't recognised as proper words!

I never understood the length of the school day/lessons.

They seem to go straight to supper after the last lesson - but they have a maximum of 6 lessons a day. with break after 1&2, lunch after 3&4, supper after 5&6. so make each period 1hr and the day start at 9am.

P1 9-10
P2 10-11
Break 11-11.30?
P3 11.30-12.30
P4 12.30-13.30
Lunch 13.30-14.30
P5 14.30-15.30
P6 15.30-16.30
Dinner - at 16.45?

Really? Seems reeeeeeally early.

Why the hell did Wormtail stay with the Weasley family for so long?

And why did Harry never notice Peter Pettigrew walking round with Ron on the marauders map, or sleeping in his dormitory?
Or Fred and George, as they had the map first?

Oh and I should have stated in the OP - personally, for me, NOTHING in the films counts as they were utter dog shit compared to the books Wink

Where did Ron get Scabbers from?

I wonder if PP ever changed back to a human in all those years. Suppose it would have been too dangerous. Also wonder how much of what was going on he could understand in his little ratty brain.

My other question, yet to be answered

Why didn't the rest of the world help with the fight against Voldypants?

How did Hagrid's Dad tame a GIANT?? So much so he had sex with her and had baby?

Why did they cancel Quidditch in the fourth book (ignore the sensible bit about having to write Quidditch as well as tri-wizard) it makes NO SENSE. Sorry kiddies, we're cancelling the most popular sport that involves four team from all the houses and is great and everyone loves... so four kids can do some challenges, two of which will be dull dull duuullll for you to watch.

Ron inherited scabbers from one of his brothers. They had scabbers for 12 yrs in POA. Wormtails aays hw found a wizarding family to adopt him. A house full of little boys woud have been ideal, as well as having connections with the MOM so could find out whatcwas going on

I think Voldemort was asexual, but I am sure that Tom Riddle was snagging his way through Hogwarts. He was handsome and tragic, teenage girls would have fallen at his feet. He'd have snagged and moved on, leaving a trail of broken hearts.

Regarding wizard contraception, I think they have a contraceptive potion and/or condoms (goblin made, maybe?). Harry and Ginny were definitely shagging in their respective sixth and fifth year. And I reckon Ron lost his virginity to Lavender Brown. What about Hermione? Do you think she lost it to Victor Krum, or Ron?
I think Snape died a virgin. He might have had opportunity with other women, but he'd have been constantly comparing everyone to Lily.

All those saying Snape is hot - is he? Alan Rickman didn't quite get Snape, he was too good looking and healthy looking, and a massive bully.

I also agree that I disregard he films, they added bits that aren't there but took away important details. The way they presented the Patil twins always annoyed me.

Regarding wizard contraception...

'Jizzus prohibitus?'

'Protego cervixo?'

Or, seen on another site - 'fetus deletus?'
