Im just wondering what can-can-girls are

Women who performed a risque(for the time) dance known as the Can-Can. Ever seen cartoons of four women in a line kicking their legs up? That's what's being referenced.

In 1954 no less. Tove herself was lesbian, maybe bi, back in a time when such relationships were illegal in Finland.
