Turner prize-winning artist Grayson Perry presents a one-hour documentary investigating transvestism in today's society. A transvestite himself, he takes a personal and unsensational look at the issues of transvestism. What are transvestites searching for? What are they telling us about the pressures society places on us all to conform to 'normal' gender roles? The film is a plea for greater understanding and tolerance on behalf of one of Britain's most oppressed, mocked and misunderstood minorities. Why Men Wear Frocks was nominated for a prestigious Grierson 2005 award for most entertaining documentary.

Produced for Channel 4
