To all of us Harry Potter fans it should come as no suprise that someone was bound to be gay. I secretly thought maybe Snape was, because he was always trying to hide his secrets. But who knew it was actually Dumbledore? I didn't but it makes sense. If not he would have hooked up with Prof. McGonagal.
JK Rowling is keeping the book alive by revealing these tidbits long after the final book. She is a master of marketing. If Dumbledore would have come out earlier, there would have been even more boycotts than there were by Christians Conservatives. You go JK. I smell a prequel, with Harry's parents and Dumbledore's forbidden love affair.

I also like to think it was a bit of a cheeky move. Kind of like, "now that the book is out and it is all over I can finally say and do with it what I wanted to all along."
It almost feels like she is taking ownership back of the novel(s) she wrote. I am sure there was so much pressure, once they exploded with popularity, to do what the masses would want and to make the fans happy and to not piss anyone off. Now that it is all over she can finally reveal what she had to hide all along.
Plus, you are right, it would make a great prequel.
