2003 April 4, Rebecca Webb, “Re: More Potter y\n?”, in alt.fan.harry-potter (Usenet):I suppose the reason so many Snapefic writers pair him up with Hermione is that she's really the only choice unless you're going to introduce an original character. In the long run, I don't see the age difference being a problem because of how long wizards live. In the short run, yeah, I could see Snape getting frustrated rather often with being the only adult in the relationship.
2004, Duane P. Schultz, Sydney Ellen Schultz, Theories of Personality:One study found second-borns to be lower in self-esteem than firstborns or last-borns, particularly if the age difference between them and the other siblings was approximately 2 years
2005, CalgaryBill, “Re: What is your definition of a Cougar?”, in calgary.general (Usenet), retrieved 22 July 2018:I understand that once she has found a regular relationship, no matter the age difference, , she's no longer a cougar. I'm not sure if a regular booty-call partner is enough of a relationship to break her cougarness. However, the best definition, I believe, is a cougar (as any wild cat) is on the prowl for fresh (young) meat!
