Burlesque dancers have varied with the times. The earliest burlesque dancers danced the can-can (something of a line dance usually during which a woman's undergarments were exposed frequently), but as dancers were allowed more room for "expression", such as toward the twenties and thirties, women would even go as far as to wear next to nothing and even strip. The point of burlesque was to stimulate male and female minds through significant exposure of "forbidden" women's skin and or undergarments through suggestive dancing.
