I guess I'm the Lone Ranger. I didn't find it tacky.

I also have a very diverse group of friends, but I can usually tell what crowd to expect based on who's inviting me.

If I get an invite from someone with a group as diverse as mine, I'll ask "Who's going to be there?" when I get the invite. If there are people there that I don't care to see, I'll tell the person that I don't want to see those people and I'll catch up with him/her later.

No one has ever gotten upset at me for asking.

Go back to the first post and the way she asked the question. Almost like "well if guys are coming that I can flirt with, I'm there, but if it's going to be OVERRUN WITH HORDES OF GAY MEN I'll just stay home."

That's what I thought she was trying to find out too, but maybe not from a homophobic stance, just a what are my odds of love perspective?

Or that she might have a particular crush on one friend and wanted to know if that person would be there.

I think it's a hard question to ask in a way that doesn't make it seem like you are going to accept or regret the invitation just base on the guest list, which seems tacky.

I think we always want to know who else is going, but I don't think that's how invites usually work.
