Quick quote:

NEW YORK - Harry Potter fans, the rumors are true: Albus Dumbledore, master wizard and Headmaster of Hogwarts, is gay. J.K. Rowling, author of the mega-selling fantasy series that ended last summer, outed the beloved character Friday night while appearing before a full house at Carnegie Hall.

My daughter was once heavily into fan fiction. This is going to make her day!

Good for her!

AWESOME!! :snap:

Funny, he doesn't look gayish.

Hopefully it will open some minds.

And to those I don't like it - boofrellingwho. Your kid isn't going to become gay because Dumbledore is.

Who wants to bet there will be some church book burnings over this? ;)

Please! Most of the parents who would have a meltdown over this already don't let their kids read it (Evil occult, and all that).

(ETA: I was responding to BTD. DP snuck in there!)

Hmm, I don't buy it. I have not read Harry Potter, but if its not in the book, then it doesn't count, even if she's the author. This is a fictional character that only exists within the confines of said book(s) and anything else is an after-thought.

I just don't get the point of "outing" a character where it isn't relevant to the story. I suppose she's doing it to make a point, but it's still kinda strange.

I mean, she said she wasn't writing any more books, so it's not like we get to see Dumbledore getting it on with Snape or anything.

Well, that explains why he and Ron were snogging so often.
