Anyone else see the interview with Tom Felton about this? It's on youtube and its hilarious. He's so shocked.

But Dumbledore being gay didn't surprise me, not one bit! I'm not sure why, but it doesn't.

How exactly?
I hope you're not implying that homosexuality is twisted or wrong.

I'm shocked I hadn't seen this coming... Normally I have a crazy adept gaydar.
I swear, spotting homosexuals is my talent.

But as cool as I think it is, I'm scared people will be resentful of Harry Potter a lot more now that there's a gay character. Or maybe I'm wrong and people will grow more excepting with Dumbledore liking wands. Tee hee.
But this is just another reason for people to get all up in arms about Harry Potter preaching devil messages and shit.

Wow.
lmao.

I'm totally for homosexual people, but I did not expect Dumbledore leaning that way at all. I am a Harry Potter fan, and always have been and it was a bit of a shock.
But hey, It doesn't bother me, if thats how the head master of the best school of wizardry wants to roll then so be it.

Ahh.
I always suspected Dumbledore wasn't completely straight.
Just the way he acted and spoke. He's way too nice to be a straight guy. =]

To every kid's mum who was shocked because of Dumbledore being gay...

Fictional character, dearies. File JK can do whatever she likes.

I thought it was a nice twist, because it made her story even MORE different from all of the others out there.

It was so bogus though, how people were getting mad about it. I mean, come on!

I never actually thought about it before and this just makes it clearer.

Could you honestly imagine Dumbledore with a woman? I can't.

Actually, I imagine Dumbledore being devoid of sexuality.

I think he's asexual more than anything. XD

She should have put that in the story to add a twist to it and more people could relate to the story, y'kno?

^ J.K. Rowling officially announced it.

Him and McGonagall . . . Yak

I think it's a pretty cool little back story. It really makes Dumbledore an even more tragic character, that he had to destroy the person he was in love with.

Plus there was totally no LGBT representation in the Harry Potter books. File

Oooo me!! In Love I think it's cute, how he's shocked. And it makes me feel less bad for being so shocked as well. tehe Honestly, I had the same reaction at first, when my mom told me, since she saw it on, like, Yahoo! News or something. I was just like...Shocked He's what now? But then it sunk in, and I was like, am I an idiot or what? XD

I like knowing all about this; Dumbledore/Grindelwald seems like a very interesting pairing, and you could do so much with it, it's amazing. Not that I would, unless I thought I could pull it off, but it'd still be cool to try. And, to be honest, I hadn't really given Dumbledore's love life a thought, period. Now that I think about it, though, I never really did see him as straight. At least, not completely. I agree with the people who're saying they view him more as 'asexual'. Maybe because I was too caught up in the sexuality of Draco and Harry. Shifty tehe

If you haven't read all of the books in the series carefully you wouldn't get it. It actually is a big deal and would have changed a lot in Harry's life.
