It's never ok to pressure someone to do something, particularly using a herd mentality. Also particularly when it comes to sexuality and/or personal safety.

I don't give a #### that others are doing it voluntarily. It has no relevance.
Do you mean sex on the Red Mile? Because that is the only way those 2 situations would compare.

No one is saying that voluntarily flashing in private is wrong. When it's done in public, whether voluntary or not, is going to make some people uncomfortable and create an environment where manners and etiquette are altered from the norm.

I actually don't care personally and even if they were having public sex, it wouldn't bother me. The only thing that bothers me is that some women (maybe even a minority) feel uncomfortable and threatened by the flashing and the behavior it leads to. That should be reason alone to make it a no-no (whether completely voluntary or coerced by peer pressure).
