Women trying to succeed in Silicon Valley AI and effective altruist spaces are reporting feeling serious social pressure to attend sex parties - where people have reported being sexually assaulted, like below.
Events like Aella’s “Slutcon,” which is happening again this weekend.
![As the crowd marched down Main Street and gathered outside Sen. Collins’ Biddeford office, about a dozen people made it inside the entryway, chanting “Vote her out!” and banging their fists on the office’s locked doors.
Staffers inside could be seen on the phone as the crowd grew. Minutes later, five Biddeford police officers pushed through the entryway and placed themselves between protestors and the door.
“This is your fault Susan!” one man shouted.
“You're a fascist!” another person yelled at the officers.

The crowd dissipated and began marching back toward Mechanics Park after chanting at and heckling the officers.
Police did not answer questions about whether Collins’ staffers called 911 on protestors.](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:2wyqv44lm72vasmddeqjgy72/bafkreif2jwyo6wtnwslutdw26zy25zo5dq7mfdwbg6jwi7nsur5lx4224i)
