    Like Harry/Fleur, Harry/Tonks, Harry/Narcissa etc. More often than not these women are way above Harry's league and wouldn't consider to be with him yet these pairings are extremely popular. So what do you think?

    That popularity doesn't imply plausibility?
    Harry/Draco is also pretty popular and I'd say that one is far less likely than your examples.

    If you're looking to read PWP/smut, then it's perfectly fine. Otherwise I think it's pretty damn unrealistic.

    I wouldn't really put Harry/Fleur in the same category as Harry/Narcissa, though. One is with a girl just a few years older than he is, the other is with someone old enough to be his mother.

    Is Harry/Narcissa really that popular?

    It's not. Hermione/Narcissa is actually more popular than Harry/Narcissa.

    Edit: Hermione/Fleur is also more popular than Harry/Fleur, going by the number of stories on FFN. Hermione femslash is much more popular than I had thought.

    The pairings are not very realistic with canon Harry at school age but they are not completely ridiculous when he becomes a bit older.

    And I wouldn't exactly call them way out of Harrys league while Harry is not exactly your typical cool guy he is still the most famous wizard around, rich and moderately handsome besides Remus a poor werewolf got Tonks in the end and a redhead got Fleur.

    The Narcissa pairing is probably only their as a fuck you to Draco more than anything else and the most ridiculous one of the ones you mentioned.

    Other popular older woman are Harry/Bella, Harry/Lily, Harry/Penelope. Let's see one wants to kill him, one is his mother, one is out of his league

    Harry Potter is the fucking Boy-Who-Lived, probably the most famous child in Magical Britain, so I'm not sure what you mean by him being out of anyone's league?

    He is also an anorexic skinny virgin teenager which no older woman would like.

    Both girls Harry dated in canon were pretty, popular and more sexually experienced than him. One of them was older, too.

    This "skinny virgin teenager" stuff is overstated.

    Speaking from experience, I take it?

    Also, OP, slow down. You're about breach the shitposting threshold.

    EDIT: wait, no, you've already breached it. I think a free trip with Banhammer Air may be coming your way.

    Not sure if you read too many abused Harry storys but Harry is just a bit skinny not to mention that many of these storys take place after Harrys Hogwarts years.

    Besides Fleur is the only confirmed bombshell out of these characters, Tonks was only described as being alright looking and don't give me BS with the metamorphmagus thing technically every witch in the HP world could look like a model with human transfiguration, Tonks only doesn't need a wand, Penelopes appearance wasn't described at all ( not to mention that she was together with fucking Percy), Bellatrix probably looks like a trainwreck after Azkaban and Lily pairing is just disgusting for every sane human.

    I am not the biggest fan of these pairings I actually don't give a shit at all about pairings and prefer Gen stories but in canon Remus who has nothing going for him got Tonks while Harry is atleast average and at the end of canon the most famous wizard alive and a war hero who killed magical Hitler so it's not as ridiculous as you make it sound.

    Just look at RL where even the ugliest famous old man have beautiful women throwing themselves at them.

    Besides even if fanon has completely blinded you in canon Ginny is actually described as beautiful and even Blaise who according to Pansy had very high standarts considered her goodlooking.
