People wrap themselves in gaffa tape and play with candy floss; And may be feed each other candy floss or throw it to each other or just enjoy it for themselves, just play around they completely conceal their sexual identity.
The idea is playfulness and indifference between the sexes.
The only way to enjoy candy floss, and indeed there is nothing like a good candy floss war, is to get down and dirty into these fetish slippery suits.
One key to the performance is the puppet like movements as people are covered in gaffa tape, therefore their bodies are restricted.
The whole femininity point, where the conceptual idea derived from, is about an androgenous theme and sexlessness, the idea that males and females can not be separated. Also the contrast of the materials plays a part, that girls are soft and hardcore, and so are boys.
There is a reference to feminist wars, which hopefully will be taken light heartedly.
XXX could be hardcore, the chromosome x-tra for females, the number thirty, and lots of other things.
