I strongly disagree.  All of my gay friends (a large number) knew 
about themselves when they were very, very young, (younger than 
Hogwarts age) even the ones who were in denial until adulthood; they 
knew but didn't WANT to know...

Now, on THAT I agree!  There's already enough censorship fascists out 
there trying to get Harry Potter books out of school libraries 
because of the magic issue.  If a children's book series intimated 
that girls sometimes loved girls and boys sometimes loved boys, 
they'd go into overdrive.

BTW, one of the biggest HP fans I know is a lesbian United Church of 
Christ pastor who is an H/H shipper!
