The Deathly Hallows came out in 2007. Gay characters in media weren't a new thing in 2007 by any stretch of the imagination, including in YA media like the Harry Potter series. Also, people were already burning the books and banning them in conservative areas from minute one. Having a gay character wouldn't make that somehow worse.

And like an anon said, diversity in children's media was fucking HUGE during the 90s and early 00s. Seriously, point me to one fucking kid's show, movie, or book that didn't have a diverse cast besides goddamn Harry Potter.

Hell, the Jem and the Holograms cartoon and the Babysitters Club books had a more diverse cast in the 80s than HP did 20 years later.
