I don't really need the details of #Dumbledore 's adolescent sexuality, just like I don't enjoy thinking about the fact that mine was probably not a virgin birth.

I mean, you gotta respect #Dumbledore’s later-in-life choice to spend evenings holed up in his office watching the Pensieve and eating take-out from the Hogwarts’ kitchen rather than dealing with the hassle of dating.

Love me some #JKRowling but yes hella weird she is announcing #Dumbledore's sexuality out of nowhere.

While the responses have been mixed from memes to jokes to absolutely encouraging the idea, the real question remains if we will get to see more of Dumbledore and Grindelwald's relationship in the next part of Fantastic Beasts and Crimes of Grindelwald.
