Dumbledore was gay?

What interests me is not whether Albus Dumbledore was indeed gay or not. It has little bearing on the story line of the Harry Potter series. No, it's rather the possible reasons Rowlins decided to throw this in for the masses to chew on. She has created a huge and most successful business out the Potter idea (she is richer than the Queen). Any announcement in such a businesses empire is always well calculated for impact. Unless this statement was a true accidental off-the-cuff remark (which I doubt) than I am sure she is paving the way for some other announcements yet. What those might be? No idea. But after years of writing thousands of pages of books around Hogwarts and the world of magic, one cannot just drop the pen and leave the scene in quiet and retire to fishing for the rest of one's life. I expect she is already conceptualizing a new series. Maybe a "Albus Dumbledore and the ..." series. Who knows? However, I get the feeling I will not necessarily read those book. I grew a bit tired by the last volume of the Potter series. Now I need a rest.
