Harry Potter is one of the oldest and most interesting fandoms on the internet. I know this is an old aspect of the fandom that occurred in the mid-aughts, but I still think about Snape Wives. For the uninitiated Snape Wives, or «Snapists» as they referred to themselves, were a group of…

«women who channel Snape, are engaged in romantic relationships with him, and see him as a vital guide for their daily lives.»

To these women, Snape was not just a character they were attracted to. Oh no, he was a God-like figure who could be spiritually channeled. Snape Wives did not like it when fellow Snapists had crushes on another fictional character. However, it was okay to have a non-Snape boyfriend or husband. Apparently, that wasn’t considered cheating on their morally ambiguous greasy haired sad boy. If you’re reading this and thinking, «Why God, why are you sharing this information with me? I would’ve preferred you take this knowledge to your grave,» you’ve got nothing to fear. The following Harry Potter memes are perfectly normal, thank you very much.
