You can imagine my surprise when I turned on the news this morning to find that JKR has officially announced that the character of Albus Dumbledore was gay. My first thought was wow! My next thought was, wondering if Dumbledore's music collection included the great works of Abba and George Micheal.
I'd make an argument about how the character didn't need that clarification by the author but it is her character... so more power to you, JK.

Just when I thought the ado was done...
In a related story J.K Rowling has also let her readers know that Harry Potter is well hung, and that although Hermione isn't truly bisexual she has had some bi-curious thoughts.
I think the real question is who's the "pitcher" and who's the "catcher".
I think she was responding to the question of whether Dumbledore ever found true love. She responded with "Dumbledore's gay" as in happy. He is very very happy.
tera, I plan to ado as long and as hard as I want to!
dags, now that I can wrap my mind around.
susan, I'm guessing Albus finds reward in both.
q, very happy... indeed!
Cyber, your response to my comment makes me feel a bit uneasy...I'll think about it and get back to you.
Keith Olbermann made a Dumbledore was outed reference on Sunday Night Football in America with Bob Costas When He's Not on HBO.
It was funny.
Oh, you have to go here

Hilarious photo!
I really do not get the point of this. Why the need for a big declaration??
tera, you let me know what conclusions you come to.
fringes, I missed that.
steph, i'm with you. in fact I plan to protest. I think the best way is to have massive amounts of hetersexual sex.
I think it's awesome. I always thought he was gay.
Just like Luke Skywalker, and Kirk , and Spock.
And Dr. Who!
Anytime someone comes out of the closet I suddenly remember this.
G, spock is not gay...
dags, watch it!
papa, good one!
