Examining the gender dynamics within the Harry Potter series reveals a significant imbalance, with 201 male characters compared to 115 female characters. Key figures like Albus Dumbledore and Lord Voldemort embody the story's moral dichotomy, reinforcing male authority. The male-dominated leadership extends to the Ministry of Magic and Gringotts Bank, highlighting a broader cultural narrative. Analyzing the series through a feminist lens uncovers how it perpetuates traditional gender hierarchies and reflects entrenched societal views on women.
