OP I think you're correct in that there are not as many male couples as there are female couples in TS4 (or other iterations).
I stand by my believe that this didn't happen intentionally.
I think the majority of these pre-mades are actually made by female devs. I didn't count all the individuals in the households, but I have a feeling that there are generally more females than males.
The neighborhoods are quite small, attire and hairstyles for females is more extensive than for males, so I think it's one way to show off the female hairstyles and dresses of a new pack. I believe TS4's fanbase is largely female, (including a lot of lesbians??).
Girls may be quicker to create female couples than males couples. Because it's what they know best.
Maybe for Brindleton Bay these lady devs figured, 'hey, we'd like a gay couple, let's give them a cute little dog as their baby!' (since it's for Cats & Dogs).' I can hear them giggle as they call these guys Brent and Brant. This thought process could be regarded as innocent or completely ignorant, whichever way you'd like to look at it. We just don't know who created them.
I think the pre-made creation process is quite casual and I doubt it's being regulated by anyone higher-up, just like some of those terrible pre-made builds....I mean if I had to supervise that stuff...
Maybe that will change after numerous discussions like this. I really hope it will for those who need to see a fair representation of themselves.
I'm all for it if it helps the community.
