I agree with Matt here. To be effective, any policy about kicking people out of a con needs to have clear, objective boundary lines about what is acceptable, and "It would offend a reasonable woman" is a very fuzzy test, especially given the diversity of opinions and views at a con. The Civil Rights Act was written to apply to employment situations, not private social functions, so it's not the right standard to apply.
