granted, i've only ever heard/used the term "meat market" pejoratively, because it carries connotations of the single people being at that place looking specifically for a hookup, rather than the start of a relationship. usually, the women were the "meat" in that situation, though i suppose it would depend on the specific interactions there.
I've said that, several times. Though without the definite article, and it's a setting in which people gather to bid on the sexier of their number. I don't believe I was ever single while attending. And this strikes me as basically a more sensible social pattern than what you're actually describing.

Except that would be sarcasticly excitedly. Does that count, though?
