Here's a thought. All the big programs are always giving out things to the webmasters, whether it's t-shirts, or hoodies, cups, pens, etc. Well why doesn't a program (or TWO!) give something a little extra to the women who go to the shows. I just did a quick little check on Google and there are plenty of companies that can wholesale and even put custom logos on PEPPER SPRAY!!!
Ok, while I understand what you are trying to accomplish, I'm sure no one is going to sponsor free WEAPONS at a drunken webmaster convention. That is a lawsuit waiting to happen! Our models deal with the same groping, etc at shows, we usually solve the problem by not leaving them unescorted. When there is a problem, the offending convention-goer is first given an "educational" warning, and on 2nd offense I've seen people kicked in the nuts, poked in the eye, or slapped into a wall. There are MANY stand up people usually hanging around that are happy to help out any woman in distress.
