>I am well aware of our by-laws Severus, being Bi myself
How did Rowling get away with this
>>
Dumbledore was not gay and he and Grindelwald were just friends
>>
well done Slytherin but fuck you gryffindor because I say so lol, what are you gonna do about it
>>
Astroturfed marketing thread.
>>
Does an author saying their character was actually gay all along, well after the final books were published, and despite it not being mentioned at all, actually make it so?

What if she said he was a death eater all along?
>>
>>223617116
The point of him being gay wasn't relevant to the story. Him being a death eater would have been.
>>
>>223617116
No, you can't reinterpret your own book after the fact. If it's not in the text, it isn't real.

His sexuality never came up. It's you who were assuming he's straight
>>
>>223617154
Straight is the default. If sexuality isn't mentioned, then they are straight.
>>
>>223617154
>uhhh mental illness was never mentioned so HOW do you know that Dumbledore wasn't a paranoid shcizophrenic that is also attracted to insects???
>>
>>223617116
Him being gay for wizard hitler in his backstory is important context for his character

Son, the movies have been out over a decade
fym?

If I wrote a character in a published novel I'd like to think I had total control over saying what they were like

The question is whether it contradicts what I already wrote
>>
>>223617130
She had a good concept building a magical world but had no idea of character development.
Why everyone loves the idea of femDraco because it instantly becomes the best written female character In the story.
Rowling created Hermoine as self insert, super smart, best friend of the main character. But couldn't create other female characters with any depth, who could outshine her.

And you would be wrong and a faggot. Once a work is published it is the READER who gets to interpret it, not you. If you wanted the reader to see something a certain way than you should have put it in the fucking book.

>>223617233
Marketing for the tv show. You know that.
>>
>>223617116
>>223617264
He's a nonce
>>
>extremely pro-gay, extremely anti-trans

What even is this ideology
>>
>>223617851
It's not an ideology, it's pure self interest. Rowling was a strong supporter of the trans movement until they started invading women's spaces, and even then continued to express her sympathy with them until their abuse and vitriol became so intense as to make her bitter and resentful of them.
>>
>>223617116
It's not real. He's not gay norstraight because he doesn't exist. It's just symbols on a piece of paper. All the meaning is made up and exclusive to the conciousness reading it.
>>
>>223617851
It's called "only keeping up with the overton window up to a point"
>>
>>223617130
This is true and incredibly based

Dumbledore confirmed straight

Scatfags seething

Rowling is a wokie, she strategizes her allegiances. She made friends with faggots because they support feminism but troons obviously go against basic female security.
Then again it's not like she cares about their mental illness beyond that, they're the ones obsessed because they're insane.
>>223617130
This. Reminds me of when Lucas tried to claim "Obi-Wan and Yoda wanted Luke to save Vader" even though the film makes it apparent they expect Luke to defeat him.
>>
>>223617124
Well it does because being gay is evil
>>
>>223617851
Gay stuff doesn't harm women, men in womens spaces does. So I'd call it common sense.
