The Open Source Boob Project was a short-lived proposal for women at cons to wear buttons signaling "yes you can (grope my breasts)" or "no you can't (grope my breasts)". Furor ensued; poster recanted in the name of con safety.

Interesting discussions that came out of the furor:

  • sexism (of course) - many, many posts
  • geek male psychology - many posts
  • geek female psychology - some posts
