What do you think is the best ratio of men to women on a couples and singles night? I'm thinking 3 guys to every 2 girls.

Personally I'd not like that ratio; but then I'm bi and looking for ladies.

For me the more the better, I would like at least 2 to 1, or even more as it gives more choice, but I am a single woman and couples would probably disagree.

What would be your ideal ratio?

Don't you think 2 to 1 just looks too intimidating when the crowd is quite large?

Not to me, but obviously others have different views.

If you're asking with a view to balancing numbers on a club night you're organising, bear in mind you need to over-estimate the numbers a bit due to no-shows. Experienced club owners will no doubt offer far better advice than this...but any vanilla party I've organised I've always reckoned on at least a third (of either or both sexes) not turning up and "over-invited" accordingly.

I agree. Thanks for the advice.

A perfect club ratio would be 2 men to 1 woman

Most clubs are 3-1 or more

However that's more choice for us single ladies so I won't complain

"What do you think is the best ratio of men to women on a couples and singles night? I'm thinking 3 guys to every 2 girls."

Also, try to consider the quality over quantity. What would 1 smart, well behaved guy that YOU personally know be worth in comparison to X random guys?

Why would you want more men than women in a club?

Thinking about crowd dynamics, and the immediate perception of people entering the club. That first impression.

Well many couples like to find an extra guy.

That works out as a single guy for every couple that enters.. that could be alot of singles and a large herd in one spot.

That's what I think. That's why I'm think 2 to 3.

The problem is your assuming that couples or single women will hook up with a guy. There is always the couple who only play with other couples etc.

I would say that 60% of all those attending should be a mix of couples and women. The rest being single fellas.

But they go on couples nights. I'm talking about couples and singles nights. where single males are allowed.

I get that. I think it still stands, you're not going to get a 100% mix between groups. So, you need a little float. Sorry to put in less than kindly terms lol.

our nights we tend to get 2-1 maybe 3-1 depending on no shows but never higher than that.Agreed you need to over estimate the male numbers and usually 40-50 % no show ..

Which nights are those Mister Mischief? Interested as I want to try Manchester clubs later in the year. I tried to PM you but am outside your age range (even though I could easily pass for 45)!

That's why I said perfect ratio would be 2-1 it doesn't happen like that very often in clubs,majority of the time it is 3-1 or more (not always more)

I had two years experience organising parties(interracial then bbw),couples would always be counted in as a lady and a man when it came to ratio's,I never saw a herd of singlemen
