JKR saying Dumbledore was gay is not some hideous introduction of sexuality into innocent children's books.

HAVE YOU PEOPLE READ BOOKS 4, 5, 6 and 7?

News to people: straight teens kissing each other? ALSO SEXUALITY.

Man, I have got to get off the Internets.

Although my book is not an encyclopedia or guide, nor does it claim to be. It's a quiz book on the weird little fiddly fixations I have.

Word. The "innocent" which I should have clarified my tonality before is one of the things I was ranting on.

The series contains at least three incidents that are speculated to be rapes (I'm pretty sure two of them are, but am abivalent about the third) and incest and people are worries about the old celibate gay guy?!?!?

Oh, I naturally assumed that your use of the word "innocent" was effectively an unattributed quote of someone else — or of a great many someone elses, or a summation of their position. I didn't for a moment think that you consider the Harry Potter oeuvre to be "innocent".

Yeah. I mean, after all, I just had to explain to my publisher just what it is I'm talking about on the next episode of Snapecase (Snape/Malfoys OT3)

I can only think of two incidents that might be considered as rapes... and I only think one of them was (Ariana's). Am wondering what the third is.
