dumbledore is gay!!!!!

like Ashuma, are you married?

Dumbledore wore high healed boots, long purple cloaks, had a pair of earmuffs, liked reading knitting paterns and his fave words were nitwit, blubbler, oddment and tweak, he was so gay i don't know how I didn't notice before!
It doesn't make a difference to me who Dumbledore fancied when he was younger, the relationship he had with Grindewald and his experiences as a young man were what made him the person he was and I wouldn't change a thing about him.
JK only told everyone about Dumbledore's sexuality because a fan asked her a direct question during the book tour and she had no reason not to tell the truth. She had always thought that Dumbledore was gay but it had never been discussed before and there was no reason for it to have been bought up in the books previously.

They say "hindsight is 20-20." I don't think so here.
Pick any character and you can probably make an argument that it was "obvious."

Sirius? Lupin (if you stopped reading before the end of HBP)? McGonagall? Any of the teachers?
Any shopkeeper? Any Ministry official? Any side character who didn't appear to be married.
It could work for anyone if you tried hard enough.

Good point. One I always wondered about was Slughorn.....

Slughorn?
I suppose it's possible... but still, never thought of that... of course, I never considered that Dumbledore was either...

Agreeing with Psyduck AND there were so many characters - characters do things out of the ordinary.

I'm sorry but i don't believe that Dumbledore is gay...to me he was a lonely old man..just that and a great wizard...I don't understand why JKRowling would do that..

I didn't think that he was, but I think that it doesn't really matter, I mean, we all live with gay people in our lives, and they are nice, normal people, except for the fact that they feel attracted to the same sex as themselves, and I think it's beyond ridiculous that people made a big deal out of it, it doesn't change the way I respect him in the least.

Gay or not gay.....weird or not weird.....normal or not normal.....what is normal? To me normal is live and let live....the differences that we all have make us who we are and that means that we are all speical in our own ways. When we meet new people there are things that are the same and things that are different, that is what makes us all interesting. It also makes us grow and evolve as we get older. If we were all the same life would be boring. It makes me no difference if Dumbledore is gay or not, I like him as a character and his differences makes him interesting.
