As usual, any submission concerning improving the ratio of women to men in our industry immediately becomes a coatrack for digs about "radfem".
Just because they don't appear controversial to you doesn't make it so. And am I not allowed to take issue with the "table stakes"?
Don't do it. Write a blog post or something. Call your mom.
Whether or not the mechanisms for doing so have sound philosophical and social underpinnings is quite beside the point--they did X, Y, Z, and it appears to have worked.
Go piss and moan about gender (in)equality elsewhere.
I don't understand your problem with people criticizing some of the things they did. It's just saying they wouldn't be attracted to the conference. It's a piece of information the organizers can ignore or not, it's their conference.
I suppose in economic terms it will work out because having more women will attract more men. What mix of people they'll have is another issue.
