Ok, Adrienne...it was only a bit of female flesh and a bit of light-hearted fun, you say? It would have been fine if there had been a few "dancing boys" for the female attendees to enjoy also. Otherwise, I say, "Right On!" to those who said, "Shut it down!" I had a boyfriend who regaled me with stories about conferences in the days before "mean feminists ruined things." Nights out at strip clubs, "models" at dinners, heck, even strippers at the events themselves! Well, suffice to say, the "boy" did not remain a boyfriend long and I can see why, even a modicum of unbalanced sexist "fun" can get on the nerves of mature people.
