Ok, to go to the original subject, I don't think that Snape and DD had any relationship, as the title implays. I think that their "relationship" was or is more based on sponsor and assistant ground. They are close. Why? Perhaps because DD is the only one who could see any goodness or human in Snape.
So tthey were not Homos at all. I mean, even if Snape was Homo, why would he have sex with a 150 years old man. He would rather be attracted to the young students or young collegues, then his old headmaster
I think this theory has really no grounds whatsoever 🙁 It's clear that Rowling wishes to portray that Dumbledore trusted Snape with his very life, but don't mistake that for love. Or at least not in the way you are describing. Perhaps love in a father/son, master/student maybe friendship kinda love.
Also someone stated in this thread why didn't Rowling include homosexuality when she includes death and violence without complaints. Well it's kind of obvious.
1) Rowling does receive complaints for the deaths and violence in her stories. Think of the potential backlash she could receive for including homosexuality.
2) The entire genre of the book is a fantasy book with a dark edge to it. Rowling said in an interview that death is an important part of life. Homosexuality isn't an important part of life for many heterosexual people such as myself.
I personally think this theory has no basis on anything from any of the Harry Potter books and no offence to the thread starter but it comes across as a poor attempt to integrate homosexuality into a book when it isn't necessary or even appropriate.
this theory is one of the worst ones i've evr heard. DD trusts many people with his life like Hagrid and Harry(and i he had a relationship w/ Harry we'd nown already in the book). he also likes to trust the better in people, which mite of been part of the reason he believed snape, and if snape had a relatioship w/ DD he prob would've gotten the DADA job alot sooner. so there no way they were having a relationship and i dont thnk rowling even thought any1 would interpret DD trust for Snape this way.
I'm not even going to bother going around in circles with this kid. All i have to say is my opinion and be done with it.
In MY opinion, Dumbledore was never more than a friend to Snape. Yes there was a deep trust but just because two MEN trust each other does NOT mean they are gay. Would the same thing be said about two women?
I'm sorry, but the theory is just completely rediculous in my eyes. There is no evidence to support it and there is no way that J.K. would ever bring something THAT contraversial into her books.
