  Jeff:
   As the author of the original post and several others on the 
subject, I have to state that I have nothing against Seamus having 
some fun, and who he sleeps with, boy or girl is fine. I just thought 
it was bad enough having him be stereotyped as wanting to make rum 
without making him seem to be immoral. Personally, as a gay male, I'd 
be thrilled to see Seamus be happy with Dean or Neville. ;) So my 
only worry was having Seamus seem to uncaring. If he was really so 
randy, surely he could find a playmate in the dorm, or just close his 
curtain? ;)
