Gandalf being a homo when did this happen?

Oh, he made a comment a year or so ago that he thought Gandalf was a homo, and that he was a former lover of the bad wizard (whatever the heck his name is) and that was the reason for the bad 'blood' between them.

That's exactly the same as the whole Dumbledore/Grindelwald extra-literary shenanigans, except their bad blood stemmed from something else.

Obviously the man never bothered to read LOTR, or do the least research on what TOLKIEN said about Gandalf : Gandalf is not an elderly man who studied magic for a few decades (as wizards usually are in fantasy literature); he’s an immortal Maiar-and quite literally an angel. Tolkien baldly stated in one of his letters, “Gandalf is an angel”. The maiar (and the even more powerful valar) are to angels what Iluvater (father of light) is to Jehovah. If gays want to project their fantasies onto both historical (Lincoln, too many others to list) and literary figures, I wish they’d at least do so in a way that doesn’t reveal their utter ignorance .
