Hosting a conference for women and non-binary people...in Florida?

Now I could be wrong, but I think there's probably one or two women and enbys in Florida :P They haven't been completely outlawed yet

A lot of these conferences have contracts with conference venues that kinda locks them in for hosting the conference at that location multiple years in a row.

How many years back do we have to go before Florida would be a good idea for a conference like this?
