It’s such a popular TV show for the past 2 seasons. I, though not a big fan, still watch it whenever I’m free. So this is what I think about ‘Glee’ after this past Sunday.
I was watching an episode on Season 3 called ‘Detention Class’ where the main theme was about experiencing your first bouts of ‘passion’. Essentially, talking about adolescent sexual experiences. What kind of message is Glee trying to convey here? That it is alright for high school kids to have sex? Yes, you have to be at least 16 to watch Glee, but we all know how accessible the series is to kids below 16 what with youtube and all. How can a society preserve morality when having sex while one is still in school is promoted so freely. One may say that the episode simply accepts that adolescent sex exists and all the episode is trying to do is to promote doing the responsible thing. But the message can so easily be construed as condoning adolescent sex as well. Call me conservative, but that’s just how I feel.
