Misandry: Sexism in Harry Potter

Vinny Mac: Type in "sexism in ______" fill in the blank with whatever want. All you ever hear or read about is how something is sexist to women. It's very unusual to hear people address how something is sexist to men.
My problem is not so much with the sexist moments in this book series (although, I must say they aren't exactly my favorite parts) but my main issue is with the fact that nobody ever brings these obvious sexist moments up when they talk about "Sexism in Harry Potter" Most people sooner recognize non-existent sexism against women than they do clear-cut sexism against men.
