Dumbledore gay! 11 Months, 3 Weeks ago
|
|
Sorry if this has been posted already, but I only just found out, and I don't think it's fake (I'll feel pretty stupid if it is)...
Google News link
What do you guys think?

Interesting. Although, as stated, it probably would have made a bigger, more positive impact if his sexuality has been made more apparent within the books.
But anything to put a positive light on being gay must be a good thing, right?

I don't agree with that. I think if sexuality was more of a big thing, they wouldn't have been as well received by the public of today. People view sexuality as an adult issue, so many of the children that love these books wouldn't have read them (as their parents don't buy them).
Saying it afterwards now has more of an impact, because they would have never made it as children's books otherwise.

Oh come on! Harry and Ron getting their wands out all the time - the books were nothing but one big gay orgy
Just look through it, there is plenty of smut if you read it from a different point of view lol.

Heh... sounds like what I do to my straight friend when I'm reading his fanfics!
Now what really surprised me about Dumbledore was the fact he was smitten with a dark wizard himself! I guess not even he could resist the allure of a bad boy!

It's not that much of a surprise if you really think about it. He's an accentric old man who wears high heeled boots & purple robes. On their fisrt christmas, he sat and wore a bonet for the duration of dinner.
Like i said, if you really think about it, its not that m,uch of a surprise.

And he even has a fag-hag in Mrs. McGonagall... they would have been perfect for each other if he wasn't gay.
