In my experience women who go see strippers usually either feel intimidated and/or competitive or ashamed and pity for the dancers. At burlesque shows, the woman usually walk away feeling sexy and inspired. And that makes it all so worth doing.

I believe that burlesque is performance art in the tradition of vaudeville and not just women performing the art of the strip tease. I suppose it is, as in the case of pornography based upon community standards, or better yet you know it when you see it. Having seen a number of burlesque performances in Albuquerque, NM and Dallas, Tx I think it is a lot of thing, not porno.
