Most often, when women are needed on the stage, men dress in "travesti" (to appear as women). Sometimes in dance when women actually appeared, they might appear to have bare breasts: Indeed, most often these were prosthetic devices that appeared to be breasts. Similarly, men that might appear slight might have padding (paper) to make the men appear more "manly".
