Absolutely, we don't know anything about DD & GG's actual
relationship (although very interesting point you speculate on GG not
wanting Voldy to desecrate tomb)  this only adds to some definitely some
underlying themes:  Love conquers all, DD never killed GG (even to get
the Elder Wand),  DD waiting so long to confront GG, the way DD kept
most of his private life `in the closet'



This leads to next topic about Homosexual Agenda and how some supporters
have even taken the next step and formed the association God Hates
America.  These people have got it totally wrong.  First their
progression of how ignorance is leading them down the wrong path:  GOD
is truth, light, and love.  Their misconception of who the rapist is
makes perfect light of this.  BTW, you should revise your statement to
read:  that there are a few women/gay men who molest/rape boys or
girls
(only because gay men don't have any interest in boys or
girls, but men).  Besides we're too busy hanging out in flower
shops, ballet school, flight attendant lounges, restaurants for brunch,
and antique stores
.and discos, of course!



Lastely, I would think as a writer, she would have had a character
profile for DD already, and it only made sense that this was his
orientation.  So in a way, she did deliberately make him that way, only
because that was the character that popped into her head.  I think,
though, she was clever enough not to explicitly have DD come out in the
books, and appropriately enough he did after she completed the series.



Regardless, it's the same old story with people like the right
wingers, the AFA/Homosexual Agenda , GodHatesAmerica, etc.  they easily
can take one bit of the whole and completely misconstrue the intent and
not look at the entire message.
