Be My Bad Boy, Be My Man

Let’s talk about bad boys. Specifically, bad boys in Harry Potter.

We’ve all come across Draco being referred to as ‘the bad boy’ – usually by gushy journalists in badfic, but whatever. There is an idea that Draco Malfoy is a Bad Boy. There’s even more an idea that Lucius Malfoy’s Bad, Real Bad. Where does this come from?

Interesting question, but it might make more sense to think about ( what makes a bad boy bad. )
