DUMBLEDORE IS GAY, !!! Options

[breakingdawn]

After reading briefly from her mega-selling book, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows, on Friday night, Rowling took questions from an audience of 1,600 students. A 19-year-old from Colorado asked about the avuncular headmaster of Hogwarts School: 'Did Dumbledore, who believed in the prevailing power of love, ever fall in love himself?'

The author replied: 'My truthful answer to you...I always thought of Dumbledore as gay.' The audience reportedly fell silent - then erupted into prolonged applause.

Rowling, 42, continued: 'Dumbledore fell in love with Grindelwald [a bad wizard he defeated long ago], and that added to his horror when Grindelwald showed himself to be what he was. To an extent, do we say it excused Dumbledore a little more because falling in love can blind us to an extent, but he met someone as brilliant as he was and, rather like Bellatrix, he was very drawn to this brilliant person and horribly, terribly let down by him.'

She added: 'Yeah, that's how I always saw Dumbledore. In fact, recently I was in a script read-through for the sixth film, and they had Dumbledore saying a line to Harry early in the script saying, "I knew a girl once, whose hair..." I had to write a little note in the margin and slide it along to the scriptwriter, "Dumbledore's gay!"'

Why is this such big news? Every news station I've seen has said something about it. Here's a newsflash: 7/8 of the world population doesn't give a shit.

Hmm, I really doubt the number's that high. Harry Potter is really popular. And as far as the world population goes, it has international fame too, and the parts in which it isn't popular won't be broadcasting the news.

she's just making stuff up now to take away from her crappy ending

The ending wasn't bad, though. The epilogue was stupid, but it ended well.

It was just to make a point. We care more about some fictional character being gay, rather than the issues in our country and even outside of our country.
