Default Are all Slytherins bad?
curly haired prefect - "sometimes I get angry!" - 30/90 - *chicken emoji* - probably @ Disney - I speak dog

In the books and movies, Slytherins are the bad guys - just about every bad guy we meet was sorted in Slytherin in their Hogwarts days, and their house history is full of prejudice towards muggleborns and muggles. In the Battle of Hogwarts, not a single Slytherin stays to help fight.

So, what do we think? Are all Slytherins inherently "bad" or do we feel the portrayal of Slytherins in the books leaves out the "good" Slytherins?
