One of my classmates in the Intensive series was getting ready to study at INSEAD, another for a company transfer. Do I need to go on?
Yes, I've taken several classes at FIAF. All the guys in the classes - except for perhaps two older married men whose kids were out of the house and were looking to travel to/retire in France with their wives - were gay.

This was at the highest, expert (C1/C2) level, so things could be somewhat different at the lower levels. But certainly at the top of the pyramid there are very, very few hetero male students. And that's a pattern I've seen pretty much everywhere I've taken a French class in the US.
