Bummer. I thought he and Prof. McGonnigal had a thing going on.

10. The Room of Requirement actually was full of Chippendales dancers.

9. When Dumbledore kept saying, I trust you Snape, he was talking about Snape not telling Dumbledore's secret, which he found out from the Pensieve.

8. When Dumbledore decided Harry needed some special time alone with him for lessons.

7. Michael Gambon's rings on every finger and decorations in his beard.

6. The Mirror of Erised was put away because it kept showing Dumbledore with his hands around a hunky Voldemort

5. Obviously code words for "looking for a gay stud"-- "nitwit, blubber, oddment, tweak."

4. Dumbledore was misquoted when he was talking about wanting some nice wool socks. He said he wanted some wild and woolly sex.

3. Of course he was gay! Look at all the lovely lady professors he had daily contact with, and never even acted the least bit untoward. Sprout, Trelawney, Madame Hooch.... nevermind.

2. Purple robe with glittery silver stars.

1. Flaming Fawkes the Phoenix as his companion.

Brings new meaning to the epithet "Muggle-lover"...

*Had an unusually wide stance when casting spells.

*Like Dorothy, would click his heels when he desperately wanted something. Unlike Dorothy, it was someone else's feet he was "clicking" in the dorm lavatories.

*Kept secretly reciting the "wingardium leviosa" spell towards male student's crotches.

*In his younger days, thought Doug Henning was hot stuff... y'know, for a Muggle.

*Frequently overheard having "quality time" with Dobby the house elf. House elves make good bitches.

Magic Date Rape Dust

I never once thought he was gay, and I still don't. He and McGonnigal did have a thing for each other. J. K. Rowling is wrong...even if she is the author.

She's pandering and it's beneath her as the author of this series to do so. Besides, who the hell cares? What does it have to do with anything in the HP books?

I always thought he was gay because he never brought that hottie, Hermione, in for "special" instruction.

Anything that upsets fundamentalist religious nutcakes is fine by me! WTG JK!

He was always asking people to "hold his wand."

Oh, who cares? The whole bloody lot of them were gay as far as I'm concerned. All those hours of movies and not a single car chase, shootout or kung fu fight.

Of course they're gay. Like, duhhhhhh.

So will that be a new phrase for saying someone is gay: "He's a member of Dumbledore's Army."

1.He was really close with a lot of his male students...Sirrus Black...Harry...Hagrid.... did he ever even talk to Hermione or a female student ever?

2.Purple sparkly robe.

3.Always had an eye on Severus Snape.

4.Why did he allow Lupin to be going to school, and allow him to teach? Had a thing for harry men.

5.Frequently turn down McGonagall's advances. She seemed like she'd be a demon in the sack.

6.Why was he so upset he had to stun Kingsley? He loved darker men.

7.Why the hell else would Lockheart get the job?

8.You know the real reason he couldn't stand the dementors? No fashion sense whatsoever. I mean-all black and gray robes-try adding a bit more color to your wardrobe boys!

9.Always appointed male teachers for defense against the dark arts-was furious when umbridge got it.

10.Wanted to brrow the invisabilty cloak so he could spy on Voldemort-in the shower.

10. J.K. Rowling intends to kill off Dumbledore and wants to blame right-wing fundamentalist chickenhawk neocon Christianists.

9. Dumbledore as victim of homophobia sells better in Hollywood than Dumbledore as anti-Iraq War protestor.

8. Or anti-global warming crusader.

7. Or head of a second-rate magic school.

6. His fascination with wands.

5. Has Barney Frank on his cell phone's speed-dial.

4. Pink triangles on the cap.

3. Reliable sources indicate that Dumbledore has always been naked beneath his clothes.

2. The female faculty members at Hogwarts are,... well...where do you think the school's name really came from?

And finally:

1. Dumbledore was a direct steal of Gandalf - and Gandalf never got horizontal with Galadrial.

Other than the ones that were barefooted, everyone else was wearing Birkenstocks. I think they are all gay.

Hogwart's policy of Don't ask, don't spell.

It gives another meaning to the title of "Headmaster" at Hogwarts.

Silly Rowling, that's been done before.

The mere fact that Voldemort is evil gave it away for me. I mean, perhaps he would have turned out differently had Dumbledore not taken such a "special interest" in him. Didn't he always complain about how Dumbledore always had his eye on him when he was at Hogwarts?

Great, now NAMBLA members are going to start dressing up as Dumbledore for Halloween..

And I'm not talking about the National Association of Marlon Brando Look Alikes

I think that was kind of dumb of JK Rowling.

Hogwarts students constantly left wondering what happened to all the semen-flavored Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.

Hogwarts students constantly left wondering what happened to all the semen-flavored Bertie Bott's Every Flavor Beans.

Come on, his name was Dumbledore.

He is supporting John Edwards run for president!

There is a joke about John Edward's magic wand some where in here.

Once over Christmas holidays, Dumbledore got drunk, painted his testicles gold and told Harry to "choke on his Snitches".

Original title of the first Harry Potter book? Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Bone.

When he was in school, Dumbledore was oftentimes sent to detention for "indecent use of a broomstick".

Much like Tom Marvolo Riddle transforms into I AM LORD VOLDEMORT, Dumbledore turns out to be DEE BUM LORD.

Oh great, Rowling ruins the series for the whole world with a giant ewwww! Who the freakin cares about Dumbledore's sexuality.

Yeah right...

Rowling has a "wardrobe malfunction" exposing her boobies about a week ago - thus getting some sexy publicity before Halloween, and then she outs Dumbledore for more sexy publicity.

She is crassly using sex to push the merchandise before Halloween.

As if she wasn't rich enough already... How tacky can she get? Claim an affair with young Harry? Snape her secret leather lover? Hagrid and the dragon model up to no good?

I could have gone my whole life without that bit of information.... now I am going to sit here wondering if all those weird contraptions in dumbledores office were really just for 'magic'.

Hey, sales were lagging. She's just pandering to her fan base...

P.S. Most readers turn gay by about the third book...

You almost nailed it G Fresh, but "Dumbledore" is actually an acronym for "Olde Red Bum", due to his penchant for being spanked. Either that or "Old Bum Reed", due to his penchant for putting his "magic wand" where it doesn't belong.

Frankly, I've always suspected Hagrid was a pedophile. I mean, living alone in a shack in the woods? What better place to lure the young Hogwarts students to?

"Hey Harry, want a piece of candy? Sit on Uncle Hagrid's magic lap."

I realized Dumbledore was gay when he spoke in that classic British accent. Yep, all of them.

I find the whole idea preposterous. Asking what a fictional character does between chapters is like asking what Hamlet does when he is off stage. The answer to both questions is "nothing", because, except for what is written on the page, they do not exist at all.

Rowling seems to have fallen into the trap of thinking that her characters are real people. It reminds me of stories I have read, of soap opera fans berating actors on the street for the villainous actions of their characters.

Always singles out one First Year boy and asks, "Ever wanted to see a real unicorn?"

The sour look on Snapes' face every time he left Dumbledore's office after a "consultation."

His favorite wand required two size "C" batteries.

You would do well to realized that whatever your opinions:

A. Being gay does not mean that a person is a single-minded sex fiend.

B. Being gay DOES NOT MEAN THAT A PERSON MOLESTS CHILDREN OF THE SAME SEX ANY MORE THAN THAN BEING STRAIGHT MEANS THEY MOLEST OPPOSITE SEX CHILDREN.

The whole point of quiddich is to "catch a little snitch" wink-wink.

What she meant is that Dumbledore is gay compared to Fred Thompson. Of course, so is everybody else.

I Think Harry, Snape, and Dumbledore are all gay, wanna know why? Because whenever either snape or harry are alone with dumbledore in his ofiice, his "startling blue eyes pierce through them" So HA!!!

I Think Harry, Snape, and Dumbledore are all gay, wanna know why? Because whenever either snape or harry are alone with dumbledore in his ofiice, his "startling blue eyes pierce through them" So HA!!!

SERIOUSLY!! Harry thought that Ginny was hot only because she is a tomboy, and cuz he couldn't marry another gay guy, or the Prophet would have another field day about him!! I bet he always thought ron waz hot, thats y he waz soooo disapointed in his 5th year when he couldnt sit alone with raon the whole train ride to pigpimples!! As 4 snape, has always been a F***ing jacka**!

To PSUdain: Eddie Murphy summed it up nicely when he said: "I ain't got nothin' against faggots and all, I just make fun of them...'cause dey faggots!"

PSUDain,

It took me about two minutes to find this info:

Summary: 50% of foster parent abuse in a general population survey and 34%
of abuse as determined by the Illinois DCFS was homosexual. In news stories
in the 50 largest newspapers and wire services 1980-2003, 175 foster parents
sexually abused 351+ charges. For the 169 whose sex of victim could be
determined: 149 (88%) were men; 76 (53%) victimized homosexually; and 85
(50%) were unmarried. Men assaulted 319 (91%) victims, homosexual
practitioners 222 (63%), and the unmarried 164 (47%). From 1980-1994, 57% of
the victims were girls, after 1994 56% were boys. In 21 group homes, the
molestation was homosexual in 15 (71%) and 31 of the 32+ perpetrators were
male and at least 334 of 349+ victims were boys.

http://www.familyresearchinst.org/Default.aspx?tabid=62

If they are 10% of the population (I think it's easily proven they are more than 3-4%), why are they committing 1/3 of the molestations?

Because homosexuals abuse children sexually at a far higher rate than heterosexuals do.

I meant to say they are more LIKE 3-4%, not more THAN 3-4%.

on a serious note for just a sec, there was a trend during the 90's towards having gay omnicient characters (News Radio, etc.) in part because there were so many gays writing for sit-coms and either trying to make role models for younger gays whom they always claimed were suicidal, or just as part of the whole excessive pride thing.

That said, being a professor in England is a pretty nasty indicator. C. S. Lewis' autobiography mentioned how common it was for upper classmen in English boarding schools to use gay sex to control some slavish underclassman in a vaguely prison or Spartan way, even if both went on after graduation to be whatever passes for hetero in England. When you have "gifted" students who are withdrawn, dark, and quiet, who grow to despise the world and the "fatherly" professor who mentored them, you gotta wonder.
That said, it is sad that JKR took a character that had the Christ-like, Gandolf, Deus ex machina role in the story and made him just another huberistic closeted guy who let his wand do the thinking in his younger years and left a trail of bitter middle-aged men to haunt the world with, all the while hoping the next generation would undo the damage from his mistakes. That's reading a lot into it of course, but I think it fits pretty well if she's to be believed that this was the case all along.

My thinking as to this was why Voldemort was evil already got mentioned so I left the comments to the funnier amongst my colleagues, but PSUdain, you're SO full of crap, (maybe from being molested as a kid, I don't know, don't care to know) fags/queers are mental deviants, so obsessed with their genitals they design their WHOLE lives about getting off a certain way and since they can't breed they have to recruit...and who better than the ranks of the innocent?

You sick F-ck, don't tell me being a fag don't make you a potential child molester. All you need is opportunity or why do you think the libtards are all penetrating our school systems with sexual awareness education now including a "tolerance" based agenda. They're SICK BASTARDS, that's why.

Unbreakable vow between him and Snape? That's just a euphemistic way of saying they had a civil union.

No one but J.K. Rowling KNEW he was gay. She played all bigots for suckers and she won.

Good for her.

No wonder no one on this site can deal with it.

#46No wonder no one on this site can deal with it.
Looks to me that most people commenting on it are handling it just fine, with humorous good cheer in fact; the only one I saw donning sackcloth and tearing his hair was PSUdain, because he can't handle the accusations that the fudgepacking wiz must've been eyeing the first years or why else would he have taken a job in education? Easy access to fresh meat of course.

Intolerant ant-gay bigoted conservatives = Malfoy & Family Death Eaters.

So much for a popular series of "children's" books. The character was basically asexual in the series. What PC purpose does her announcement serve? I believe the question posed to her was something to do with whether the character would ever find true love. If she truly believes that a homosexual lifestyle is a normal lifestyle, why would her answer be "He's gay" instead of a "yes", "no", or "we'll never know" explanation.

Know what was in Dumbledore's Gringotts vault? Nothing but gay porn.

And the Number One reason we already knew Albus Dumbledore was gay: He likes his candy sweet and his phoenixes FLAMING!

Or how about: his patronus was a John Edwards.

i cant belive her!!!!
i loved her but shes soo freakin changed
and from all DUMBLEDORE
i mean hes the best thing in that stupid world and now she makes him gay
if he was alive he would have totally killed her

"Much like Tom Marvolo Riddle transforms into I AM LORD VOLDEMORT, Dumbledore turns out to be DEE BUM LORD."

THAT WAS THE BEST ONE LOL

If you think Harry is gay why did he fall in love with Cho Chang?!

10. Had Muggle "Salt and Peppa" hit, Let's talk about sex... playing in the background everytime Harry came in for his "Special Sessions".

For the rest of you lighten up. I loved the Harry Pooter books as well, and always thought Dumbledore was a bit odd. But just because he is a social deviant doesn't make him evil...just wrong (and damened if you believe the Old Testament).
I think it's sad that the author chose this as an issue. But in her defense, she may not have chosen his sexuality as an issue but as a way to provide depth to a character. Perhaps she had a gay headmaster in her past who was respectable in every way with the exception of sexual preference.
I choose to remember the books for their fun stories and their examples of bravery and tolerance (Remember the Death Eaters hated the Muggleborn). If my kids ask about Dumbledore's sexuality, I'll tell them the truth, that he is gay, he is wrong and he'll never be eternally happy with that choice.

* Dumbledore once spent $400 on a beard cut.

* Dumbledore's favourite play is Equus.

* There's an old saying: "Reagan kept jelly beans on his desk. Clinton had Flowers." Dumbledore had jelly beans too, but they were all boy-flavoured.

* As he grew older, Dumbledore had to rely more and more on other male wizards to keep his wand charged.

Shimauma, such venom. I take it no one's willing to come out of the closet in your neck of the Minnesota woods (not even Prince).

It seems to me the problem is that you folks think homosexuality is a choice. Now granted, it may be to those that have grown bored with hetero sex (i.e. rock stars, movie stars, American Idols). But the vast majority of fags/dykes are just pre-disposed that way, like being right or left-handed.

Science is closing in on the reasons; whether genetic (many gays have gay siblings), or simply the result of too much exposure to Harry Potter novels.

Nonetheless, the cry of "Pervert!" (vis a vis kids) is by no means applicable to gays alone. The fact is, the majority of perverts doing time today are hetero. That being said, yeah sure, I don't want one leading my kid's Boy Scout troop - I also wouldn't raise my kid Catholic.

But I do know a few, and they're not a bunch of sick f--- drooling pedophiles. They're just giggly and annoying, and have way too much money (I never met a poor one). And I'm pretty sure your Lord and Savior isn't eager to cast them into Hell (unless it's about the money thing).

Bottom line - this "God hates fags!" thing is going to cost us elections...

It seems to me the problem is that you folks think homosexuality is a choice
Science is closing in on the reasons; whether genetic (many gays have gay siblings),

What an utter load of crap! It is a choice, where and who you screw is a complete "choice-based" situation. For these creeps, it's all about getting off. I don't know if you noticed this about scientists, but they're human beings, with biases and flaws, and many of them damn well set on proving stupid crap, especially if it flies in the face of ethics and morality.

I didn't bring God into this at all, my opinion is pretty much based on common sense and the fact that you don't keep a fox in the chicken coop with the little baby chicks. He's not going to spare them because they're younger. If anything they'll be easier prey. Having a gay teacher or "head master" is a dangerous prospect and a bad influence on young impressionable minds, but then that's really their goal all along.

When your kid gets maimed by someone in Dumbledore's Army because he/she/it works in a school that didn't want to discriminate, feel free to tell me they aren't a bunch of sick deviant f-cks.

His "piercing blue-eyed stare" at Harry was often followed by a subtle wink and a blown kiss.

Has a rainbow triangle on the back of his broomstick.

His Patronus? Freddie Mercury.

He voted for Barney Frank for Prime Minister, which is interesting since he's British and Barney Frank is an embarrassment to the United States Congress.

Two words: nipple rings

His favorite spell? The "Dirty Sanchez"

to the person who said all those statistics about 1/3 of molestations being gay, who are the other 2/3? Now we can see who does the most bad stuff.

For the last time, people, homosexuality is ALSO condemned in the NEW TESTAMENT!

1 Corinthians 6:9: "Do you not know that the unrighteous will not inherit the kingdom of God? Do not be deceived. Neither fornicators, nor idolaters, nor adulterers, nor homosexuals, nor sodomites..."

1 Timothy 1:10: "for fornicators, for sodomites, for kidnappers, for liars, for perjurers, and if there is any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine..."

That said, God doesn't hate gay people. He loves every person and wants every person to obey Him. Very few will ("narrow is the way that leads to everlasting life, and few are they who follow it"). HOWEVER, homosexuality is a sin (if you believe in EITHER half of the Bible). Whether people are born that way or not. It's possible people are born with gay tendencies, just like some people are born with alcoholic tendencies, just like some people are born with heterosexual sexual deviancy tendencies, just like some people are born with violent tendencies, just like some people are born to gossip, some people are born to lie. But we all have to keep our sinful desires and tendencies under control.

It's not a sin to be born with tendencies. It's a sin to ACT ON it. It's a sin to lust after others, homosexually OR heterosexually. It's a sin to practice sexual immorality, whether it's heterosexual fornication or adultery, or homosexual fornication (since marriage is defined as man + woman, there can be no un-sinful gay sex.). If you have alcoholic tendencies, it is absolutely a sin to have even one drink, because one drink will always lead to drunkenness, which is a sin. It is a sin to murder, whether you are born to murder or not. It's a sin to let your temper get the best of you so that you say evil things or do things to hurt people. It's a sin to gossip and to lie.

We're all born human, so we will all have tendencies toward sin. So we need to dial down the hatred toward homosexuals. No sin is worse than any other. God hates ALL sin. If people don't control their sinful desires and repent (homosexual, heterosexual, asexual -- we all sin), we need to pray for them. We don't need to handle people with vitriol and name-calling.

Except child molesters. To the incinerator with them!

As to Dumbledore, there is nothing in the books that suggests that he continued to be gay after Grindy or even that he and Grindy actually had relations. As far as I can read, he devoted his entire life to fighting evil and was so hung up on what happened when he was 17-18 that he didn't ever pursue love, with women or with men. But I do hate that JKR didn't keep this to herself. It was annoying enough having to defend the book against, "Harry Potter teaches witchcraft!" and now this. We didn't need to know.

And to whoever said Harry fell in love with Cho, um, he didn't. He liked Cho until he found out she was a headcase. But Ginny is his true love, forever and always.

And my favorite sign that he was gay so far: the flaming phoenix. But I have to ask, if that's a sign that Dumbledore was gay, the fact that Harry's and Lord Thingy's wands contained a feather from the same phoenix -- does that mean Dumbledore wanted to make the twin core recipients gay? ;-)

Also a sign Dumbledore was gay: the fluffy upholstered armchair he conjured for Harry's trial. Any straight man would have conjured a wooden chair or a recliner.

Another sign: He was most pleased when he discovered the most wonderful collection of chamberpots in the room of requirement. Straight men call them toilets, and would have just been pleased about the number of places to take a leak.

Reason 132: Always running around tickling Harry with a phoenix feather.

As for Harry and Cho, ever see M. Butterfly? Just sayin'.

And gay fantasy characters aren't limited to Hogwarts. Every major series has at least one.

So, was Dumbledore born gay, or did J.K. Rowling choose for him to be gay?

1. He knew Harry was the chosen one when Harry came out of the closet under the stairs.
2. He was really embarrassed when his Barry Manilow Patronus attacked Ron.
3. He hired Filch because he misread and thought it was Felch.
4. Dumbledore always trusted Sirius Black because he liked his men seriously black.
5. He was a manwhorecrux.

big gay albus

We should have known because....

Fairy magic explains Donebumbackdoor's dominance over less extravagantly dressed wizards.

We should have known because...
Albus is the Greek translation of "all butts".

to the person who said all those statistics about 1/3 of molestations being gay, who are the other 2/3? Now we can see who does the most bad stuff. #61 - Posted by: adam on October 22, 2007 10:56 AM

Statistics adam...

The claim is that around 10% of the population is gay. If only 1/3 of the molestations are committed by gays then that means that 10% are committing 33 1/3% of the crime. If it were heteros who "does the most bad stuff" then that 33 1/3% would be at or lower than 10%.

Also note, that 10% is the number put out by Gay Advocacy groups so is more than likely inflated...which means the numbers are even worse.

To put it even simpler for you...

Let's say that there are 10 murderers who have committed 1000 killings. Of the ten, only one (Bob) is from San Fransisco. Bob killed 333 people. This means that the other 9 murderers were responsible for killing 777 people, or about 86.3 people each. Which group is the worst? The group of one that only offed 333 or the group of 9 that offed 777? The person who killed 333 or one of the people who killed 86?

What happens if we add one more Bob and one more non-Bob? The total then goes to 1491 (666/863). Add one more Bob, non-Bob pair and the total is now 1949...but...the Bob group is now responsible for 999 compared to the non-Bob group at 950. The group of three do more damage than the group of 11

The smaller group commits the most incidents of the crime per member.

Hey, um, 333+777=1110. Just so you know.

ANYONE can quote stats; It's not about the stats, it's about HOW IMPARTIALLY/scientifically those statistics were gathered....Where are people getting these cute little "damning" statistics? From the "Family Research Council"?? We'd all be very, very interested in knowing where, by whom and FOR WHAT PURPOSE those statistics were gathered. Motives people....It's always about motives. I have only just recently read statistics regarding a 25 year study (approx. 15 years into it thus far) that were so far the other direction, indicating the incidence of gay foster/adoption situation molestations were HUGELY LOWER than in hetero-situational foster/adoptions, but because I was reading it in "The Advocate" I was, myself, taking the quoted stats with a grain of salt. Show me some stats from "Scientific American" or the AMA and cite to me WHY the study might have been done in the first place and yeah, I'll consider the information.
Sorry, but your useless, homophobic-driven rantings about this stat and that stat (I can put a bunch of numbers typed out on this screen, hell, anybody can, does that make it sound more "real" to you???) just TOTALLY sound like a bunch of fabricated crap to anyone familiar at all with scientific studies and statistics. Sadly lots of people see "94.7% of people...." typed out on a screen or page and THINK, "Well, it's a NUMBER, by gosh by golly, that must mean this is a FACT..." Gosh. Gee. Ya THINK?!
It's so cute how the Rabid Right have learned how to blog and type (and spell) and all, but that doesn't mean the crap they're selling is anything other than bigotry backed up with bogus numbers. Laughable. Luckily I have a lot of faith in MOST people to know fudged numbers, bigotry and bias when they read it, as on here. Trust me, fella, we see through your "numbers"....And it's friggin HILLARIOUS how though you quote (god knows what) statistics to back up this hateful ideology or that, at the same time the CONTRARY/COUNTERING numbers and statistics you completely negate by saying they "don't count" because THOSE NUMBERS are collected by biased scientists, "liberal idiots" and blah, blah, blah... Yeah, sure, just YOUR NUMBERS are good. Uh huh. Riiiiight. Yeah, we can TELL what sorts of pillars of objective journalism YOU must get your "news" from.....Luckily MOST of us don't buy it.
The reality is that, basically, the "ratio" of gay-based molestation vs. hetero-based molestation is pretty much proportionate to the estimated population. In other words, gays represent about 5-6% of the population and less than 6% of molestations are same-sexed. Pedophilia is a completely different "gig" than homesexuality OR heterosexuality. It's about power and secrecy and victimizing. Almost all studies have found that MOST INCIDENCES of hetero molestations (and statistically that IS older male on underage females) GO UNREPORTED because the perpetrators are family or friends of the family of these children and therefore a studies of statistics like those cited by the previous DOOFUS regarding "incarcerated" pedophiles have long-since been disregarded by sociologists and scientists as innacurate indicators of numbers or ratios. But hey, have fun with those numbers, Bubba!!

omg, like hogwarts wasnt gay enough already! Well i should have known he was gay when he insisted to change his title from "headMASTER" to "headMASTER-BAITER!

wow... looks like JK has got some JK level ideas

wow... looks like JK has got some JK level ideas

Uh,
Just to clarify re: #70,
All the people I killed were bad; they were either terrorists or conspiring with monkeys. OK?

...I can't speak for the other Bobs.

Jes - er, sorry - Judas Priest! No wonder you blog so much, Frank! She sounds like LOADS of fun...

I think the mad rush of Dumbledore/Grindelwald slash that followed "Deathly Hallows" was a pretty good sign. True fans knew all along!

Ok, someones gotta say. So I guess I'll do it..

RE:#72 "Almost all studies have found that MOST INCIDENCES of hetero molestations...GO UNREPORTED"

Now, if they're unreported. How the hell do you know that most incidences are older male/younger female? Does someone say "Ok we have X amount here...I know the number over there is reported as lower. But I'm SURE someone isn't talking. So double it."

How do you know the unreported no. isn't ramped up to push someones agenda?

Either way. If dumbledore is off to the side being a pole smoker, who the hell cares? I mean other than the kids who maybe thinking WTF????

on a side note Julianne on dancing with the meathead stars is HOT!
hehe SHE'LL turn dumble around....

#72Motives people....It's always about motives.

I guess we agree on one point; I am certainly not going to put ANY credence in any stat or declaration made by a scientist or psychologist with fag tendancies so let me just suggest this experiment. Keep the fags/queers out of positions in schools or any position involving children (yuck) and let them grow up without ANY deviant influence from gays at all. Then when a percentage of them grow up and "out" themselves, well they can go join the gay community.

I know for a fact no hard core fag is going to agree with this, because, as they are all aware, the population of deviant f-cks will eventually die out, leaving no one for them to get off on. Gotta train them young after all. I suppose they could just move to the Netherlands where it's okay for kids to run around naked and masturbate during preschool and kindergarten 'cause you know that's important curriculum for a growing child.

Dang! someone beat me to part of it, but ...

Took Harry and Ron on "Big Gay Albus Big Gay Boat Ride".

albus dumbledore is gay?

That 10% thing was originally released by Alfred Kinsey, who had the single worst sample group in history. It consisted of >20% convicts, ~5% male prostitutes, and 100% men who were willing to talk about sex with a complete stranger in 1947.

Okay shimauma, let me see if I've got this straight: If we keep fags away from kids so that they can in no way indoctrinate them in the ways of deviant f---dom, then homosexuality will cease to exist? Then how do you account for fags in the Muslim world, where in some countries just being one can get you executed? They're sure not reading "Daddy's Roommate" in the madrassas.

Face it - they've been around forever and probably will be, short of some "Brave New World" genetic interdiction - which is a lot closer than we think. In the approaching age of designer babies, parents will be able to exclude obesity genes, cancer genes, alcoholism genes, and yes, homosexuality genes. Who wouldn't avail themselves of these choices? Who but the most vainglorious liberals would not exclude the gay gene?

I'll tell you who: prospective gay parents. It's ironic, but they might be the only ones to just roll the dice the old-fashioned way (if you don't count artificial insemination). Or what if the gay gene can be made dominant? What if science can guarantee a gay child?

Hoo boy, folks like you are gonna hit the roof with that one...

Okay shimauma, let me see if I've got this straight

You obviously haven't got it straight. What you're not understanding is that "gay' is just a word describing deviant behavior, which there is no proven genetic disposition toward, and I'm not sure if you're aware of this, but in muslim tradition the men don't fornicate with women during ramadan, so they do each other. They don't consider that "gay", even though f--king deviantly is the ultimate basis of "gay" behavior.

Public gays are just creeps obsessed with their parts and how they use them, designing their whole lives around the use of their parts. You raise a kid up not to be obsessed with his/her parts and IT GOES AWAY.

You have people who are public about their "orientation", they have just labelled themselves as obsessed with their parts and since being a deviant has cycled around again, in these last few generations, say about the drug culture of the late 60's, it's becoming societally more acceptable to be an obsessed deviant, probably to do with people becoming more self-centered/narcissistic.

Frankly I hate the idea of my kids growing up in this era, and can only hope the conservative examples they are exposed to(still happily married mom and dad, Frankj and Sarahk, Fred Thompson) will help them to ground themselves onto the straight and narrow path of righteousness with the ability to discern truth from utter bullsh-t.

jk rowlings is a bitch she ruiend the story what an asshole!!!!!!!!!!!!!

why why why why why would she say that ahhhhhhh!

if you agree with me type _I_
ok

shimauma, obviously you didn't read my comment, or you didn't realize that a lot of it was directed at you. DIAL DOWN THE HATE AND NAME CALLING ALREADY. And don't bring my name into your rants against teh ghey. I believe the choice to live the gay lifestyle is a state of living in sin, but treating people with hate is not going to help.

I believe the choice to live the gay lifestyle is a state of living in sin, but treating people with hate is not going to help.

Not seeing how using plain and direct language(language "teh ghey" understand) is considered "hate" speech, but you 'da boss. My apologies.

...and since plain speech is obviously isn't getting anywhere as far as agreement, why don't I just raise my kids my way, bunkerboy can raise his kids his way, and when Jesus comes back, we'll all find out how well we did or didn't do. 'Kay? Seeya then.

Meanwhile, back at the funny farm...

# (whatever, as I've lost track) sign Dumbledore was gay:

He was caught in his private box seat at Daniel Radcliffe's West End Equus debut with his robes around his waist, "red-handed," and red-faced, because he was making too much noise.

wow... what was she high on when she wrote that idea? i mean, sure hes gay but, whos he gay with? like... is voldomort evil because he had a bad childhood with dumbledore... if you know what i mean...

10 reasons why we should have know he was gay... 1. Dumbledore wanted Harry to go to hogwarts because he saw Harry's penis when harry was a baby 2.Dumbledore always says he trusts Snape because Snape didnt tell anyone when he walked in on Dumbledore and Hagrid having sex. 3.Com'on, i mean he wears purple robes with triangles on his hat! 4. he is so many female workers there and he doesnt even put his eye on them. 5.His broomsticks lisence plate says " i luv berry manelo" 6. He doesnt where any cloths under his robes so at night its easier to stick his penis in the boys ass. 7. He hates voldemort because he refused to have sex with him when they were kids. 8. He is gay because his school as a boy was and all boys school and he got tired of leaving school to make love 9.He gives Harry " Special" treatent in his ofice 10. And finally, "Albus" is the greek word for "all butts"

Bad bAd Bad, Jk, what the mother fucken cock sucken

Way back in the mists of time my dad once mentioned that back when *he* was a young lad, if someone asked you if you were gay. You would say "sure I'm happy as a friggin lark" (ok. he didn't say friggin but you know what I mean.) So my question is; when did gay go from being "happy as a friggin lark" to "happy as a friggin lark oiling up guys in the locker room". Just how did the meaning change so much?

#36363 sign Dumbledore was gay; he was happy as TWO friggin larks. Doing really really naughty things.

On-topic: Yeah, I got nothing funny. I mean, if Dumbledore was gay, oh well. Them wizards and witches be funny anyways, if you catch my drift.

Off-topic: Um, I know we're mostly conservatives around here, and I try to have thick skin about such things, but not all gay people are perverse, socially-deviant monsters out to molest children and ruin society. My mother is homosexual, a veteren, and a contributor to her community. I'd like to think I turned out okay, regardless of my mother's bedroom habits.

re: #96
Hey Anna, I'm sure I speak for most people. And not just 'here', when I say I'm sure you're 100% right.

The real questions are;
1) Do they show up for work every day?
2) Do they put as much effort into their jobs as I do mine?
3) Do they show a little respect for those around them?
These also work for any racial questions by the by....

The problem *I* have are with the people who feel they have to rub your nose into their lifestyle. The pervs and the flamers. I don't care if someone is gay or straight...get a friggin room already!! I don't need to see ANYONE make out in a sloppy and LOUD manner with whomever they happen to be with at the moment. For hell's sake, don't they have a job they should be at?? If more people would just act like grown-ups I think it would be better for everyone.

Does that help?

ya know, the extent to which this doesn't matter is stunning.

If she'd really wanted to make a statement it would have been in the books. So basically..yeah, its been 5 months since the premier, her name was out of the papers, o the math.

Oh, and she's a Scottish Artist. Is it THAT surprising she's liberal? Seriously

Reason #Nth: Kept referring to his wand as "Mr. Hat".

Ed - I hear ya.
