Exactly, if women still go to the parties, men will still have them. I'm not a fan of these themes, so I've never been to a party where my expectation or role is that of a hoe or slut. Am I getting a good eye roll when these pop up and a neck work out from shaking my head? I sure am, however I can't make other women and men see or feel what I do so my option is to not go and let adults make their own choice then mock them later for being dumb when it is made public and they are associated with this.
ETA: I went to one party that had a seXXXy theme but went with other sorority women and we were fully clothed. Two of the women were making an appearance to have a photo with their boyfriends who were fully clothed, and a member invited me as a friend so there were hysterical pictures of us fully clothed with men and women in lingerie and sleepwear all around us. We picked up our party favors and went to a bar since we were all of age. I sadly don't have any copies of those photos but maybe they will surface one day and people can be confused by the juxtaposition of a party in December containing people in North Face fleece and Frederick's of Hollywood in the background.
