So did everyone here that one of the most powerful wizards in the Harry Potter series was actually Gay!!! It was actually the top story on msn yesturday even with the fires in california. I just thought I would let you guys know in case you ddin't it would be a big hit for Gay rights or at least push more people to acceptance of gays.

There are no fewer than two threads about this in the lounge.

This was not even reported in the Indian newspapers!!!

The private life of a fictional character is not major news in India?

They certainly don't share the American sense of what is the most important breaking news of the day!

And Australian -- it made all the major newspapers and TV news reports here....

Well, I guess that the topic is such.... Indian newspapers, unlike Indian TV News-channels, like to keep away from this topic...

Sigh..

get off my back

Actually thats not true. Around a day after it was posted here in the forum (last saturday), it came as a small frontline news in The Hindustan Times. I haven't really read the paper all this week so dunno if they wrote a article about it. The Hindustan Times always seems to report gay news. I see it such news all the time in their supplements 'City' and 'Business and World', and even in their main newspaper.

He's so stupid! Going around with such a tattoo...

The article I read said he's not sorry that he got the tattoo -- just the ribbing he's getting from the other people at work. His kids are still Harry Potter fans.

I personally think a tattoo is a little permanent for something that the kids may no longer like in ten years time, but each to his own....

How polite, Graeme. I was going to say it was a bit tacky and declasse, but permanent works too. And how immature is it to get a ribbing because the wizard on your back just turned out to be gay....

I think it's pretty cool to do something like that
