The homecoming tradition has been to introduce one man and one woman at a time. These couples are rarely romantically involved with each other. If two women were introduced together, the logical conclusion is that there were two more women candidates than men.
That sounds reasonable, thanks. I think you're right that it wouldn't make sense to require that the king and queen have some romantic connection. Before the winners were announced, though, when I saw the two sets of girls walking out together, I wondered if there was going to be a possibility of them selecting two queens! In today's world, is it unreasonable to wonder such a thing? On too many college campuses, we've seen the idea spread that the concepts of men and women are nothing more than constructs. I wish I didn't have cause to ask such a question, but unfortunately, that's the state of this country we live in. Again, though, DaShuckster, I like your explanation.
