The male favoritism argument doesn't make too much sense, considering that there was also a point in the game, when there were 3 guys and 7 girls (How Deep Is Your Love) and another with 2 guys and 6 girls (Last Tango in Buenos Aires), both of which are proportionally a bigger difference than 16 males to 8 females, which Joshy mentioned. Not to mention that in both the episodes I took as examples, there was not a single male-male team. The fact that this happened so late into the game makes the larger number of girls that much more noticeable, yet I don't hear anyone calling that "female favoritism". Not that anyone should, since I believe favoritism or sexism had nothing to do with the imbalance in gender, as while some male-male teams lasted longer that needed (Stepbrothers, Rockers), it was most likely due to poor writing choices. The writers probably kept them around longer than, say, Vegans or Geniuses, because they thought they had bigger comedic potential.
