There are just so many ways that this is wrong headed:
That sexualized "boy bits" were not also on offer bothers me. That its intent was sexual in a public event and thus completely non-consentual for everyone else at the event. That women found it empowering - it would seem that being straight out asked was just such a relief from hamfisted oogling and drooling that it felt like they had more control over male behaviours.
I don't think naive/conservative has anything to do with it. Respectful of others, definitely. Filled with common sense, obviously.
