Is it exploitation?
Right.
And trying to make this into a binary when it's just not.
And I think it also comes back to this notion around sex and what's for sale and the economics.
What's for sale.
And this assumption that, you know, and again, we can trace this all the way back to the origins of burlesque in the States that.
a lot of theaters were right next to brothels.
And a lot of that fear around the performance, and especially the performance owning one's sexuality of the female body, the fear was also around prostitution.
And the fear was also around uncontrollable, unruly bodies in the way that we've always thought about feminine sexuality, that it is something to be controlled.
And so, yeah, and to be ashamed of it, right?
Because if you're ashamed of it, then you're going to hide it away.
And that's what the intention is.
So this idea around like, oh, but I'm a burlesque performer.
Like I don't engage in sex because there's something dirty about that or there's something like unwarranted, illegal, like anything else.
creates, again, absolutely that false distinction and that divide between where these are so interconnected to each other.
You know, yep, same seats on the same bus, or they're connected again by that Venn diagram in the middle point.
Like the stripper, the peeler, like these are burlesque terms.
Like it absolutely comes from that.
So where where we're going to get a little bit of a difference, like in a contemporary is around this idea of a neo burlesque.
Right.
