And He Tapped His Foot in the Hogwart’s Bathroom Too
Oh no, another reason for the right-wing religious nutzoids to think Harry Potter is of the devil:
NEW YORK (AP) — 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. After reading briefly from the final book, “Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows,” she took questions from audience members.
She was asked by one young fan whether Dumbledore finds “true love.”
“Dumbledore is gay,” the author responded to gasps and applause.
I’m not sure how “Dumbledore is gay” answers the question of whether or not he finds true love. Does that mean that gay people can or cannot find it?
I’m all confused now!

Just another reason for a certain crowd to hate this lovely series of books.

“Does that mean that gay people can or cannot find it?”
I’ve been trying. I’ll get back to you on this.
