If she sings and they go out, then no one was Oiver anything. If they refuse to go out then it is their fault. It might not be nice of her but it is their decision in the end and only they will be punished.

    If it was a room with 2+ men, and a women came in and started singing knowing the men were present, who is punished? - TzeviAug 03  '12 at 22:19

    @tzvi did the men go out straight away? Then they are definatly not punished. If they remained, then they are probably both punished - Yehuda HaMaccabiAug 04  '12 at 21:48
