JK Rowling outs Dumbledore as gay

We here at work suspect this may have been a joke the audience fell for. It doesn't bother me either way, though. His sexuality's a non-issue to me.

I certainly don't think she should necessarily have made it explicit in the books, as Peter Stuck-Record Tatchell suggests. It wasn't relevant. She didn't say Minerva McGonnagall was straight (or not) either. And yes, Sirius/Remus fans, I don't think she's ever said Lupin wasn't bisexual.

Either way, the Stonewall quote is beyond parody. "It shows that there's no limit to what gay and lesbian people can do, even being a wizard headmaster."

(If I see one comment anywhere insinuating any kind of equation of homosexuality with paedophilia, I'm going to flame a bitch so hard their ancestors will be shouting Aguamente.)

However, don't let that spoil your interest in this story, which is cool too.
