Glee fans were stunned to learn that Dot Jones was, in fact, a woman. The actress, who played Shannon Beiste on the FOX series, was always speculated to have been born a man, but rumors erupted when Jones agreed to portray a woman who was trapped in a man’s body. Glee producers had opted for Dot to portray a powerful woman who became super sensitive on the topic of transition to become a man. Since the episode aired last year, people are still questioning whether the actress is a man or not.
