It's true: Albus was gay
I totally snagged that from [info]jellybean_slash.

Now it's canon that Albus and Grindewald were in love. Read on:


Update: DUMBLEDORE WAS GAY, SAYS 'POTTER' AUTHOR

Answering a question posed to her at tonight's book reading at Carnegie Hall in New York, Harry Potter author JK Rowling said she "always thought Dumbledore was gay" and that he originally fell in love with the wizard Grindelwald.

Rowling also said she had read through Steve Kloves' script for the movie adaptation of Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and corrected a passage in which Dumbledore was reminiscing about past loves by crossing it out and scrawling "Dumbledore is gay" over it.

Upon hearing her response, a hush fell over the audience in attendence and then applause exploded. Rowling remarked that if she had known that would be the response, she would've revealed her thoughts on Dumbledore earlier.

More on tonight's event to follow shortly, including the full question and answer segment!



We all knew, right?

With some delay, I'll drop some lines about the whole "Dumbledore's gay" affair. There were many discussions about this subject on [info]meta_roundup and all over the internet.

The question really is: Does Dumbledore's sexual orientation change anything? In my opinion not. Even before the interview slashers paired Dumbledore with Grindelwald, now it just has some background.

Unfortunately the whole background is the interview, not one word in the books. JKR could say Neville was gay or Luna was gay with the same effect.

I totally agree with the people saying, the statement about Dumbles is more frustating than anything else. Who would have known anything about this from the content of the books? Nobody!

I'd say we read the books again and keep pretending everybody in there was gay or whatever we wish them to be.
