Twitteratti definitely seems to think that J.K Rowling’s response to a fan questioning Dumbledore’s sexuality was the best comeback ever.
In a tweet that has been since deleted, Ana Kocovic said “Thank you so much for writing Harry Potter. I wonder why you said that Dumbledore is a gay because I can’t see him in that way.”
To this the Harry Potter author responded by tweeting
.@anakocovic21 Maybe because gay people just look like… people?

Rowling’s response received immense praise and has been re-tweeted over 17,000 times since.
The author stirred up a huge controversy when she revealed the sexuality of Albus Dumbledore in 2007. Seems like some fans are yet to come in terms with a gay Dumbledore.
