I dont know if this has been posted before... but apparently JK Rowling gave some sort of interveiw at carnegie hall and some kid asked about Dumbledores love life or why he was never married & Rowling said that Dumbledore was supposed to be gay and apparently there are some passages in the last book that insinuated this. Craziness!! i wonder why she just never came out and wrote that he was gay in the first place. i suppose it doesnt matter. it just crazy to find that out after ive been reading the books for the past 7 years!!
HE WAS IN LOVE WITH THAT OTHER GUY! HIS 'CHILDHOOD FRIEND', WHOM HE TRAVELED THE WORLD WITH. THEY WERE TOTALLY BUTT-BUDDIES! (somebody should yell here. ;D)
There is everything wrong with being a damn homosexual, its a filthy practice . I would have no problem seeing them exterminated. On another note, Voldemort should of provaled... i was rutting for the psycopath and is sadistic pal Bellatrixx the whole time...
i know its true. but i still refuse to believe it. i mean... NOTHING signals this. if they never told me i would have never guessed. its not even remotley obvious. but now that i know... it kinda makes me think that he has a thing for harry. LoL....
i agree with idunno~do.you?......the whole dumbledor being gay was a total shock....(sorry i dont know how to quote...) i think (but dont know) that maybe jkrowling was humoring the kid to give the papers somthing to talk about but like i said i dont know.
Ok, I loved the Harry Potter series, but it's just books! You would have to really read a lot into inane details to come to the conclusion that dumbledore's gay. I really think that Rowling just said it b/c she'd been out of the news for a while. This would get her back in the news and give pissed off parents another reason to buy a shitload of her books, for the sole purpose of burning them.
I enjoy hearing from people who sound offended and go off arguing that there's no basis for it and proclaim that Rowling's full of it. A book is a focused window into a separate world contained in the author's mind. If the author, being the omnipotent creator of their book's world, reveals that they know something about it, then it's true. I'm not focusing just on you, SugarStash, but Rowling doesn't have to "read a lot into inane details" to decide something about her work. If she said that Snape was a robot wizard sent back in time to aid in the defeat of Voldemort, then that's what he is. The small glimpse of the world Rowling created simply didn't show that part of it. And she's never exactly been a media whore either. It's not like she needs to be in the news and make more money.
