The Discovery+ network is airing a show about children who dress in hypersexual drag costumes to explore their identities and gain confidence in a new show called “Generation Drag.”
The show will feature five teenagers and their families as they prepare for a performance at “Dragutante,” a drag show aimed at helping young LGBT people express themselves, according to a Discovery+ description.
A trailer for the show displays children wearing strappy lingerie, heavy makeup, colorful wigs and platform boots.
The children’s ages are not disclosed, but the show refers to them as teenagers. One boy said he became interested in drag at 13.
A mother is shown in the trailer struggling to explain to her daughter that her grandmother does not fully accept her because she refuses to come to her drag performances. The trailer later shows the young girl in her drag costume tearfully hugging two adult men – one of whom is in drag – who do not appear to be related to her.
One of the children in the show is transgender and is shown complaining that family photos from before the child began transitioning were a source of sadness and discomfort.
