I actually think this is a really good idea! And I'm NOT being flippant!
Men can see for themselves how it feels to put their trust in someone and because the average man is probably slightly heavier than the average woman, this will make them concentrate much more on their technique.
Another point is, most men aren't used to following, so this is a true test for the leaders technique, as to whether it will work with a woman who is not very used to drops. Instead of relying on the woman compensating for any bad technique!
Like me, for example, I sometimes come across a problem, where a new partner will judge that i'm a fairly experienced follower, therefore assumes that my dropping ability matches my dancing ability, which it doesn't!
