Shaunette:

Shaunette, rather annoyed with how ignorant and narrow-minded this group
has been over this. From "gay Dumbledore must have been hankering for
Harry" to "how dare she explain her idea of Dumbledore" to "normalcy is
uniform heterosexuality"...give me a break. I thought this was HP for
*grownups*?

The problem with this grown up is the manipulation behind this all.  She wrote a character that seemed to be above sexual innuendo, he was a bloody puppeteer afterall, then bang 3 or however many months after the finale, the author decides to spring him out of the closet, his imprisonment within apparently a weighty deal on the outcome of the work.  If she wanted to trumpet a movement, a theme, heck enlighten us, whatever ... then she should have done it in canon.  End of story!
