I'd say it is pretty meaningless to say this or that programming practice is inherently good or bad. The only proper answer is always "it depends".

That said, I'm not really sure what you mean by "global variable". C# does not have them. You seem to mean instance members of a singleton. From the language's point of view that's just like any other instance member, the singleton after all is a pattern you can implement with C#, but not a concept that the C# language itself "is aware" of.

In general, if you are using the object-oriented paradigm, it is considered bad practice not to encapsulate state. Therefore, you should expose the state through properties (or methods in a few cases). These may be read-only or read-write, as long as you perform validation to guarantee object state remains valid at all times.

What is your motivation for wanting to use a "global variable"? There may be many ways to accomplish what you seek, such as using static members (which is the closest thing to global variables you can find in C#), thread data, application state (in an asp.net context) or other mechanisms.
