<< O.K. Let me start by saying that there is no real proof to
 support the Harry is gay train of thought, but there is quite a
 bit to support that he is straight.>>

You take that as an axiom, that leads you to believe the next quote:

<<My opinion that Harry is straight is based on written proof but is 
flamed while some ones homosexual fantasy, that has no reason to be 
in a book discussion forum, is alright?>>

Here is the point. The written proof is the same for all parts. They 
see their experience. Take the 'Bill was cool' line. A friend of 
mine had only this bit, that he though a couple of boys were cool. 
He was the first surprised to discover he was bi at 22. Tell him 
Harry is not a bisexual and he'll look puzzled because he 
identifies with him at sexual development.  

Are you calling his experiences a sexual fantasy? I'll inform him he 
doesn't exist and his experiences have no reason to count in an 
adult book discussion forum. 

He's got the same canon as you, sorry.

<<Please explain this to me, I thought we were discussing 
the books and our theories of what may happen and who is or is not a 
DE supporter.  >>

Then we should ban every SHIP post, not the gay ones.

<<Where did the gay thread come from?>>

The gay thread started the day discussions started, and it is as old 
as the human being :)

In fact I think we were discussing the Harry/Bill subtext, or that 
is where I catched the thread.
