Magpie:
Like the other poster, this has not been my experience of gay men 
either. But...can Dumbledore really put up a barrier? He's the same 
as he's always been. It's not like he's suddenly acting differently 
towards you. Isn't it you who have put up a barrier having learned 
this character is gay? Because if he were throwing the barrier up 
he'd have to have done it where he actually existed, inside the 
pages, wouldn't he?

instead of a woman)
