The only sexuality I've seen in the books is the blossoming sexuality
of the principals--Ron and Hermione, Harry and Cho, Harry and Ginny,
etc.  And while their teenage angst was realistic, even that has been
pretty tame for kids that age.

I just don't see any evidence of sexuality among any of the Hogwarts
administration.  Rowling's comments were simply to throw some stick
about.

I wonder if Michael Gambon will be wearing puce robes in the next
film.
