I havent seen it yet but the "Sexy" episode is the fifteenth episode of the second season of the American television series Glee, and the 37th overall. It was written by Brad Falchuk, directed by Ryan Murphy, and premiered on Fox on March 8, 2011. This episode mainly revolves around the topics of sex and adolescent sexuality. In this episode, Holly Holliday (Gwyneth Paltrow) returns to McKinley High School as a substitute teacher in a class devoted to sex education. "Sexy" was met with generally positive reviews among critics and fans alike. Many critics went on to praise Paltrow's performance, preferring it to her first appearance in "The Substitute". All exept for the all mighty Parents Television Council.
the Parents Television Council thought:
"From the beginning of the episode, it was pretty clear the gist of it was going to be that abstinence is off the table and we're going to make the celibacy club look like the nerds convention essentially. There was very little doubt — despite the sort of lip service the show gave to responsible sexual activity — that the gist of the show was lap dances with students is cool, the celibacy club is not, and when it's presented in that way, it really cheapens whatever discussion there is about consequence and responsibility."
So…they loved it? Ha!
They are actually calling the episode "appalling" and were not a fan of Gwyneth Paltrow's risque teaching techniques, saying:
"If you had a real-life instance of that, I think it's fair to say the teacher involved would no longer be a teacher, but somehow it's acceptable for a fictional teacher to do this. Again, this is a real problem. Real-world teachers don't lap dance with their students."
Dan Isett, the group's director of public policy, says the show is sending mixed messages, explaining:
"I'm sure if you were to talk to Fox or [creator] Ryan Murphy, they would say they're trying to present an honest portrayal, and that it makes it easier for kids to talk to their parents about these issues, and all of that is certainly commendable. But at the same time, the show is based on making sexual content look cool. That's why it's a popular show.”
Come on! please shut up and let us gleeks be! the children your "protecting" know much more than you know so back the heck off!!!! and dont forget its all a performance and not real life for God's sake!!!!
