We additionally learn why Petunia hated Lily and, by extension, Lily's son Harry. Because she was born without any magical ability, Petunia hated it and everything associated with the Wizarding realm. As Petunia had actually requested permission to attend Hogwarts, and had been gently declined, it is clear that her rejecting the magical world is simple jealousy and retaliation for it having rejected her, an all-too-human characteristic. We can surmise that she wed [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Characters/Vernon Dursley|Vernon Dursley]] because he possessed a so-very-stolid non-magical nature, and it is clear that the ill-treatment she inflicted on Harry was part and parcel of those same feelings.
Judging by the above, it can be seen that Snape and Petunia shared certain similarities in their personalities. Both were denied what they most desperately wanted, and each manifested their jealousy and disappointment as hatred toward Harry. In Petunia's case, her hatred was extended from her envy over her sister
There are many other revelations, large and small. In [[Muggles' Guide to Harry Potter/Books/Order of the Phoenix/Chapter 2|''Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix'']], Petunia Dursley says, "I heard – that awful boy – telling ''her'' about them – years ago." "''Her''" is of course Lily, her sister, and "them" refers to the Dementors, whom Petunia has just identified as the guards of Azkaban. It is interesting to note that "that awful boy" was actually Severus Snape; knowing Petunia, we expected this to refer to James Potter.
