Those people went looking for gay partners while in Egypt. I'm sure
any gay Wikipedians are perfectly capable of restraining themselves...

It's not difficult for any gay couples to just request twin rooms. It
would be nice if they didn't have to, but it's not a big enough deal
to stop us holding Wikimania in Egypt.
