> he or she usually is looking for a gender balanced group with attractiveness levels similar to him/her

is this really the case? I mean, it's hard enough for me to find other gay guys, but if even heterosexuals are established in a forced equal balance solely based on gender... what hope have I?

I have no idea whether gay people prefer a gender balanced group and didn't mean to speak for them in my original comment. I was commenting on the average social event; the gay population, while sizable, does not represent the average case. Of course this means there is an opportunity for arbitrage if a main player neglects the gay community, and Grouper may well be doing just that.

It's not a date! And when gay guys want to "just have fun" rather than "go on a date" don't you enjoy the company of women just as much as men?
