Until the 1970s, strippers in Western cultures were almost invariably female, performing to male audiences. Since then, male strippers have also become common. Before the 1970s, dancers of both sexes appeared largely in underground clubs or as part of a theatre experience, but the practice eventually became common enough on its own.  Well-known troupes of male strippers include [[Dreamboys]] in the UK and [[Chippendales]] in the US. Male strippers have become a popular option to have at a [[bachelorette party]].
