Think of the story like a Robert Frost poem.
When asked to explain one of his poems once, Frost replied that, although the poem did have personal meaning, he rather enjoyed the fact that so many different people got their own personal meanings from his poetry... thus, he declined to give an explanation.
Interpret the story the way you feel comfy with it.
Me? I finished the books and was satisfied long before Rowling made any statements about Dumbledore's sexual orientation. Had she have mentioned it before I finished the books, I could maybe have read the story with that "enlightenment." However, she made this "revision" AFTER the books were published and read... so, the stories stand as they were, BEFORE she "edited" her story one last time.
My interpretation of the stories were that Dumbledore was old and wise and not especially concerned with his own sexuality... kind of like Gandalf...

JK Rowling made Dumbledore gay for one reason and one reason alone: For her own personal agenda.
Because the spotlight on HP had dimmed, she had to put herself back in the limelight to push forward her latest agenda.
She recently announced that she is auctioning off her "personal" copy of "The Beetle and the Bard."
And that's why she stirred the pot about Dumbledore. So people could take notice of her and she could sell off her book "for charity."
The hypocritical git.

First of all Dumbledore isn't a real person. He's a fictional character created by J.K. Rowling.
Since she created him, she can make him any sexuality she wants. If she says Dumbledore is gay, then he's gay.

It's the progressively fast plan of the feminization of the men in Hollywood and TV aimed specifically to the younger kids to make them fell like being a gay is normal and that gays are regular people and why not just try to see how it is.
This kind of abomination is going to be seem more and more in movies.

The totality of your life concerns are whether or not a character in a fictional story has a sexual identity that you do not approve of?
1. Turn the computer off
2. Get the Yellow Pages
3. Look under "Therapy"
4. Call them

Jo Rowling says he's gay and she created him. I don't think anyone else can argue with her.
It's not exactly a new thing she just made up, she had to get them to change some of the script in the films due to the albeit hidden fact.

There's nothing in the books about his sexuality, so even though JK Rowling always thought of him as gay, if you don't like that fact, you can just ignore it and carry on reading.

I'm pretty sure that if the author of the story says he is, then he is. I really don't get the hype...it's a character in a book series, and he's not even 'out'. hehe

He's even more gay than people who read Harry Potter in the first place.
