In October 2022, ABC and Playschool showcased Shane Jenek reading a story about a girl who wanted to wear pants instead of a dress. Jenek is a cross-dressing entertainer who performs under the drag name of ‘Courtney Act’ (with all its attendant sexual innuendo).

In Senate Estimates Committee on November 8, 2022, Senator Alex Antic questioned David Anderson, Managing Director of ABC, about the segment and the grooming of children.
