Sexo Frágil (Fragile Sex) is a television comedy from Brazil. I happened upon an episode on YouTube and I was fascinated with what I saw. All the roles, both male and female, are played by males. Their presentation as females is very good except that most of the girls speak in their boy voice. The four main characters (above) play both male and female roles. The other female roles are played by male actors who do not have a male counterpart like the four above. The program is in Portuguese, which I don’t comprehend, so I missed most of the humor. Despite the language barrier, I enjoyed all the excellent femulations. |
Sexo Fragil is a wonderful find. But yes, the non Portuguese speaking among us can only guess at what is going on! Since it ran for two series, I imagine it must have had a reasonable following in Brazil.
