brown_betty above mentioned that this "project" seemed to indicate that women who didn't acquiesce to the request were perceived as prudish and had sexual hang ups, and I agree.
You say the only wrong is pressuring, but I (and I think others) feel the threat of being perceived as prudish and/or being ostracized from the event *is* pressure. People attend conferences of all kinds to feel part of a group, to be accepted and enjoy the company of like-minded individuals. I would wager more than one woman walked past the "project" and, when asked, wondered what would happen if she said no. Would she be teased or taunted for the rest of the con? Told she was stuck up or, worse yet, hung up? How many women were triggered by the event, or left early to avoid being asked, or left early because they knew they would *never* be asked (because they were too old, too ugly, too fat, small-chested, etc.)?
