Ok, i need in on this action. No interest in harry potter, or lord of the rings. You can also put me down for never seeing any james bond.

Different genres i know, but people are usually amazed when i mention this. .

Same on 2 of the 3. I did enjoy LOTR, though.

I think I must the only person at this point who has never read a single word of JK Rowling, nor seen any of the movies.

I feel like an old fart (No offense, Boss), but the subject matter just doesn't grab my attention at all.

Don't feel too bad. I'm 24 and I've never read any of the books or watched any of the movies. And this was while growing up with my sister always nagging me to read it. Little kids going to a wizard school just isn't interesting.

Yes, my first paragraph was total joshing. I added "OK, but more seriously" to avoid the confusion. Sex/pervert/gay jokes are abundant all over this forum; this was no different.

Anyway. No, I had no idea Dumbledore was a homosexual, and I doubt anyone else gleamed that from reading the books. Maybe I was/am just naive.

Also, picturing ol' Dumbledure smooching another dude didn't exactly enrich my experience of the books.

Elaborate Dumbledore sex scenes aren't what enriches the book. The fact that he was in love with Grindelwald, which explains his actions much more, enriches the book.

And you should have guessed from the "flamboyant plum suit" he wore in Half-Blood Prince. :p
