I'm not telling anyone what they can and can't like/read/write, first of all. Just to make that plain. Nor am I saying that if you like the following, I think less of you. It's not directed at anyone in particular nor inspired by any specific fics. This is just me being peevish, okay?

Actually, we have one and exactly one reference to homosexuality from a Wizard:

"He's obsessed. Just don't get him on the subject of his boss. According to Mr. Crouch ... as I was saying to Mr. Crouch ... Mr. Crouch is of the opinion ... Mr. Crouch was telling me ... They'll be announcing their engagement any day now." GoF, from "Weasley's Wizard Wheezes" (bold mine).

Percy marrying Crouch is a ridiculous idea -- sort of like, "Well if you love that candy bar so much, why dontcha marry it?" -- but it's also not such a horrifying, disgusting idea that it can't be incorporated into a simple joke at a brother's expense. So, yeah. As tolerant or less than Muggles.
