Chris Womac commented on Nov 11 10 at 10:26 amI thought the episode was fantastic in the way Blaine helped Kurt with being bullied. I am far removed from high school and still remember the torment of people suspected of being gay. A very important storyline for anyone and any age. Prejudice and ridicule unfortunately don’t just go away after high school. You must show courage and pride in who you are everyday. Never forget that. Bravo Ryan Murphy. You are doing so much more than you can realize.
