The internet has been abuzz with the highly sexualized photo spread of Glee Cast members Lea Michele and Dianna Agron, taken for the men’s magazine GQ. Dubbed “Glee Gone Wild” these photographs are targeted at GQ’s readership, made up of 72% men whose median age is 33.4. Yet the characters in the extraordinarily popular television show are supposed to be in high school.

While Glee has thematically addressed sexism, sexual orientation,  and bullying in previous episodes, the show blurs line between satire and sincerity so often that it becomes hard to see when they’re critiquing these issues, or becoming a part of them. With these photos, certainly they’ve become a major contributor to one of the biggest problems facing teen girls – their oversexualization for older male audiences.

Most disturbing, was Lea Michele’s quote in the Huffington Post, where she said “I don’t know how they got me to do half the stuff I did.”
