Just a side note...
Yes, I agree.  JKR has put sexuality in her story.  Not overtly, no.  
In GoF, at the Yule Ball, what do you think those kids were doing in 
the rosebushes?  What were Fleur and Roger doing in their rosebush?  
I don't remember which book exactly, but Molly Weasly talked about 
getting back to her dormatory at 4am after she had been out "walking" 
with Arthur.
