Gandalf's not gay.

The actor who played him in the movies is, apparently.

Also Gandalf the Gay aha aha aha

Also, I think JK Rowling is just trying to be politically correct with all this gay nonsense to get more idiots to buy her books O_O_O_O

Wait, wtf.

I've always seen him as a lady's man... But maybe homosexuals are in tune with their magicial side or something and get important roles in the Wizarding community because of that?

This just in: CORNELIUS FUDGE IS GAY.

Way to kill the link as well.

"Oh my god the fan fiction"

pps who the fuck criticized POKEMON for being anti-christian? i never heard about that! it seems kind of senseless since like, who would expect anything else from a game imported from a country where christianity is far from the major religion?

The same people who called D&D anti-Christian.

I think you can find tons of context clues for this. Two of the bigger ones would be:

Dumbledore's closeness to Harry. It always seems to go a little farther then a mentor-student relationship for Dumbledore, especially after the incidents in the Department of Mysteries and in the imaginary King's Cross near the end of the story, when he's explaining how he cares about Harry so much. There's a good chance that Harry reminded him of the young Grindewald. He'd be about the right age from about the 5th book on, wouldn't he?
The fight between Albus, Aberforth, and Grindewald which killed Albus and Aberforth's sister. Doesn't it seem an awful lot like a lovers' spat with Aberforth and Ariana just kind of caught in the middle to make it all the more emotionally intense?

There's other times when it seems quite plain if you read between the lines, but I think these two are the most obvious.

For those who think this is out of the blue, Rowling has plans to release a Harry Potter encyclopedia-type thing, which character bios are list. Pretty sure she'd had this in her head for a while!

That still doesn't make Gandalf gay.

oh come on! re-read that, and then think about the fact that
-it's a children's book series
-it'd make him GAY PAEDOPHILE HERO which would be suicide as an author
-it's dumb ARE YOU DUMB
-Dumbledore may be gay, but it doesn't mean he gets a boner for every guy, even if he's like someone he knew once
-he'd be strong enough not to fall for a student
-the theory seems like you've just made this tenuous connection GAY TO GAAAY

I had a friend in highschool whose parents wouldn't allow him to play any D&D-based games (Neverwinter Nights etc) because of this and "they'll ruin your life". pretty far north from the bible belt too! we called him Snausages

Shit. Next will be gay Vikings.

That’s right, you have the young gaming with the old(er), white people gaming with black people, men and women, Asian countries gaming with the EU, North Americans gaming with South Americans. Much like world sporting events like the Wolrd Cup, or the Olympics will bring together different nations in friendly competition, (note the recent Asian Cup; Iraq vs. Saudi Arabia, no violence there) we come together. The differences being, we are not divided by our nationalities and we do it 24-7, and on a personal level.

We are a community without borders and without colours, the spirit and diversity of the gaming community is one that should be looked up to, a spirit and diversity other groups should strive toward.

Wth!? Make this hetero for a second. If a really really old chick is tutoring a KID boy... is she going to have feelings for him?
Just because he's gay doesn't make him a pedo.
