My grandmother keeps sending me books on embroidery as if this is the middle ages ~~and that's all a woman is good for~~. I've decided to return the favor by sending her unlabeled chocolate-covered insects. Petty might be my new middle name.

	Whaaaaat? You mean, you don't have an overbearing adult trying to force particular gender roles upon you? This isn't normal? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	They sort of gave up on all of that when I was sorted into Gryffindor, see. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Oh good. Stupid house rivalries tearing families apart. A hat making an arbitrary and outdated decision ruining lives. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Do you think it sorted you correctly? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I don't believe there's an actual correct answer. People can't be summed up by a few traits. They're far more complicated than that. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	I think it's usually accurate. It might be a hat, but it's an old hat. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Maybe so but it's still arbitrary to school life. I see no reason to continue the house system when it just breeds animosity amongst the students simply because 'this name is better than that name.' Don't we get enough of that with blood status? (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Yeah, and some of us choose to ignore things like blood status for the crap that it is. It is crap. It means nothing. (Reply to this) (Parent) (Thread)

	Exactly like the house system. It means nothing. (Reply to this) (Parent)
