There is something I don’t understand; for the past few days, people on social media were saying that Remus and Tonks’s marriage is a lavender marriage. I didn’t know what that meant so I searched it up and why people do it: basically, lavender marriage means a marriage between a homosexual/bisexual person with a straight one and it’s between men and women, you know, marriages in the usual way. But when I searched for the purpose of it, I got that they are made to hide sexuality and to not be hated among others. Well, Remus and Tonks weren’t a lavender marriage, their marriage is the complete opposite of lavender marriage because Remus hasn’t fallen in love with anyone before Tonks (confirmed on Pottermore), and there was no textual evidence that either of them or both are queer or bisexual. When I first read the books, I felt like both of them were straight and there is no way they could be queer, but when I started to stan them and go through the remadora tags, I kept on seeing that they were headcanoned to be bi. And as time passed, people started saying that their marriage is a lavender one, teddy was the result of their lavender marriage, and people started saying that the two previous statements are canon, but they’re not!
