Oh, Glee. I have no explanation for why I keep returning to that show (it might involve hoping against hope for an actual lesbian subplot). I will say, though, that comparing Glee to reality is generally not the best parallel to draw unless you want to give yourself a headache.

There is a popular theory that Glee is Ryan Murphy's way of giving himself a do-over of his own crappy high school experience, especially since Kurt's story has been pushed to the forefront.
