Shelley now:
Yes, that's exactly what I feel she's doing. She had this great story in her 
head, and the last book starts to diverge from it. Then, all the interviews 
following seem to diverge from it even further, and that's exactly what I 
see this gay comment as being, so much so that I don't consider it to be 
canon. I really wonder if this gay thought of hers is a new one- if indeed 
she just thought of it, but that it certainly wasn't anywhere in her mind 
when she planned out this series. It would explain why it feels so 
disconnected from the series.



Julie:
This I don't get. There was nothing in the books that indicated Dumbledore was gay,
this is true. There is also nothing in the books that indicated Dumbledore is straight 
either. There is *nothing* about his sexuality whatsoever that I can discern. So how
can it matter whether it turns out he was always gay or was straight, when it had
NO impact in the books, any more than whether he was right or left handed?

I do see other areas where there was a disconnect?between the other books and DH,
like Harry performing a Crucio. But Dumbledore's sexual preference--either way--nope, I
just don't see it at all...
