I like gay Dumbledore, but wouldn't a revelation have been a bit forced? Creating a situation for Harry to learn about his headmasters sexuality could easily have felt shoe-horned in. I mean I don't recall people talking about McGonagall's in the books (pretty sure that was it was revealed post-books, not sure.)

Then let's take into account that Dumbledore didn't share many personal things with Harry. Like Harry learned a lot more about him after he died...I supposed there could have had a throw away line in Skeeters book, but I think that would have been a bit weak.

See, I feel like even a throwaway line mentioning it somewhere in the books themselves would've been far better than revealing it in an interview that a lot of people might not ever even read or see. No one is saying it needs to be a huge revelation or anything. It's entirely possible to have something like that come up organically in a conversation at some point without it being a big deal, but that would make it 100% inarguable canon that can't be dismissed by the whole "It was never mentioned in canon itself so therefore it doesn't qualify as canon" argument.
