Me: 
   Goodness! You really are reading into things what you like. I'm 
not trying to sound rude, so if I come across as such, my bad! I'm 
not the sort of person who judges, or even really cares, about other 
people's sexual preferences. To each her/his own. (At school I have 
many friends that don't share in my "Oh I LOVE Orlando Bloom" -like 
feelings but are more likely to be heard saying that they think the 
girl behind me in US history is hot. So I don't have any issues with 
homosexuals. Just to straighten that out.) However, when I read this 
post it bothered me a little. All you people are doing is twisting 
Rowling's words to fit your theory. 
    If I'm wrong I'm very sorry, but I remember the part of the book 
where Harry walks into the kitchen and sees Mr. Weasley and Bill a 
little differently. Bill draws Harry's attention purely because he is 
quickly attempting to hide something. If you were in such a 
situation this would be the same. Your attention doesn't go to a rock 
sitting in the woods, it goes to the bear coming at you.
    In the part where you said that Harry asks about what Bill's been 
up to and not Charlie or someone else, I remember that a little 
differently, as well. Percy's name was brought up, Harry was told 
about Percy's turn, then Harry asks about Bill. Harry doesn't get a 
chance to ask about Charlie because that is brought about when he 
asks about Bill.
      Once again I'm not trying to be rude or mean, but all you 
really seem to be doing is twisting Rowling's words.
      If I've offended you I'm sorry, it wasn't intentional. And if 
you're allowed to express your ideas here, than why am I not?
       NO   OFFENCE!    
                 Yet another, little thought gone long!
