Perhaps I should have elaborated more.

The problem is not merely the presence of booth babes, or the ease of distinguishing them from women who are actually there for the event. The problem is the larger effect it has on the community, and the things it says about that community's priorities.

This is part of the reason that I'm not sold on a code of conduct to address the issue. I would like to believe that the Drupal community is mature and egalitarian enough to agree that this is not how we want to portray women's contributions to and presence at our events.
