i'm dumbledore's girl, through and through....
re jkr and dumbledore and fandom and the world at large....
i am looking forward to the day when a mainstream, highly successful book just happens to have gay characters. not as 'the focus' but with details of their domestic/romantic/sexual lives included just because it's just the way things are.
before that we have to have the books that make it a big deal and are ground breaking and have the furor and controvesy about that etc.
and before that we have a book where someone says about one of the main characters 'oh. he's gay'.
i think she's done that, and i love her for it.
