This whole topic is going a little overboard.  Speaking as a gay man, 
I see absolutely no indication that Harry, or anyone else in these 
books for that matter, is gay.  Since these books are written, for 
the most part, from Harry's perspective, his sweaty palms, inability 
to speak, etc... would come from close contact with a guy he was 
interested in, even if he was in the closet and trying to 
appear "straight".  I hate to put a damper on the gay!Harry crowd, 
but having lived it, I just don't see it anywhere in canon.
