Sounds like the modern version of Tootsie, with straight students trying to “pass” in order to get a job. Kind of the reverse “klinger” from “MASH”.
I could see a sitcom in someone getting so hired and trying to keep up the front at work.
These days, I suspect that any show that had a character claiming mental illness because that character was a cross-dresser would find itself being protested right off the tv. I don’t think we will ever see a character like Klinger again.
Cheers did an episode on this once. Norm had a talent at interior decorating but his yuppie clients preferred their cars german, their wines french and their designers gay.
Like Jack Tripper, trying to keep up the front for landlords Roper and Furley.
