Actually, now that the Rita Skeeter smeer attempt is brought to my attention, I retract what I said about Rowling's not bringing Dumbledore's orientation into the series. She did. Through nasty inuendo.
Certainly others could have interpreted that smeer differently, but I recall interpreting it as an allegation that Albus was a queer perve.
Frankly, since Rowling put that out there ... I think it was kinda beholden on her to set the record straight (heheh) that Dumbledore being gay does not mean he's a perve out to engorgio his male students.
I'm not gonna boycott her Universal Theme Park land or anything, but the Skeeter thing leaves me leaning towards my opion that she should have outted him.
