With all the media attention given to drag queens, we ask where’s the love for queer burlesque dancers? We talk to Eveleena a.k.a Ivy Les Vixens, mental health advocate, YouTuber, and founder of the Florida burlesque company Les Vixens about the value of femininity in the queer community and how burlesque can be a safe space for the the LGBTQ community.
