What do you mean, he wasn't gay? The kids at the centre of the story didn't think about the teachers as having sexual identifies but that never means the teacher hasn't got one. And surely we are past assuming everyone is straight by default ?

Harry spends a huge amount of time throughout the series building a deep personal relationship with Dumbledore and having many non-scholastic conversations with him not limited to scholarly matters, and then after Dumbledore's death spends a substantial amount of time learning about his life and upbringing.

Come on, are you serious with this? Yes, it probably would have been weird in the second or third book, but are you really telling me that it would have been completely wild and inappropriate in Deathly Hallows, a book where Dumbledore's connection to Grindelwald was already a significant plot point? Come ON.

And surely we are past assuming everyone is straight by default ?

His sexuality was unspecified, that's not the same as assuming that he was straight by default.
