  ***Katie replies: So, every teenager that falls in love with another teenager is going to be a pediphile? That is some seriously odd logic.  Would you make that assumption if DD's first love had been Minerva McGonagall or some other woman, instead of a man? I really wonder. 
  I see absolutely NO evidence in canon that DD was EVER attracted to young boys. And to say so, IMO, really denigrates the character and the story. 
  I do wish JKR would just hush up - she's just creating controversy and confusion with every interview. Personally, I just wish she'd stop making the WW so much more like the RW. I read HP to *escape*, not to think about homophobia and pedophilia. I just want to think about Fizzing Whizbees and bubbling cauldrons, and my dear Snape sweeping about his dungeon like a bat....ahh, the good old days. KATIE
