Dumbledore is gay and it's a-okay
Dumbledore was gay, and I feel sad that he had to battle his first and probably only love kasi naging dark wizard. Hay. That must've been so painful! But we love Dumbledore all the more! I cried and cried when he died because he was such a good and kind person and brilliant besides, and it was such a relief to know that it wasn't really Snape who killed him. We carried that theory that he made a deal with Snape right after we finished Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince, and it was really a relief that we were right. Kasi naman, sobrang betrayal kung pinatay talaga siya ni Snape whom he trusted and defended against everyone. That would've broken his heart.
Hmm, come to think of it, I also cried when Snape was killed. But not as much when Dumbledore - or even Dobby-- died. Kawawa din siya.
I think the JK Rowling's biggest success was creating characters so well-depicted and developed that readers empathized with them kahit Muggles ang readers. This revelation that Dumbledore was gay makes us love him and appreciate him all the more kasi he sacrificed so much, even his personal happiness.

For the last three days Kim and I have been talking about whether Piolo Pascual and Sam Milby are gay. Not that we them either of the two personally, but we caught Sam on The Buzz last Sunday, and we felt angry and outraged on his behalf because Lolit Solis charged him with having an affair with Piolo and that she saw the two of them kissing (or whatever) at the Sofitel swimming pool area. Sam looked tired and exasperated, and he sounded so bewildered when he asked what the heck Solis gets from coming out with made-up stories.
Bakit ba napakalaking deal na maging bakla sina Piolo o Sam? Leave them alone if they are (actually, even if they're straight. Ang weird ng showbiz gossip. Talagang brutal. Walang ni katiting na dangal na natitira sa mga artista. But like we really care. Most of the time it's all tacky and cheesy and we want to commit suicide over why we remain glued to the tv while these people wash their dirty laundry. Gad, don't let me get started on the long conversation my mom and I had over Pops Fernandez' tell-all story on what really happened between her and ex-husband Martin Nievera that came out in, um, S magazine? Hi Magazine? Some magazine my mom brought at the supermarket along with the oatmeal and the coffee.)
Anyways,personally though, we think Sam is straight. About Piolo we have our doubts.
