I'm sorry, Froggy, but I'm not following this. Can you explain it a different way?
Here's a recent example:
One of my friends is a married RN, so he naturally encounters a lot of women throughout his day. Last week he was talking to one of these coworkers that he sometimes speaks to outside of work. She tells him that he is recently single and asks if he knows any single men. He then gets out his phone and says "Here are some pictures of some of my single friends." He likes to point me out because I am the most "normal" of his friends. She doesn't like them, gags, wretches, etc. In other words she doesn't like what she is looking at.

Thanks for explaining. I see. She asked though. I wonder if guys would ever think to do this without their friends asking.
Do you think that's because they just don't think that way, or because they don't want their friends to get together?
Probably just has something to do with how a man's mind is.
It also depends on if there guy friends has any female friends, and if they do, they also have to be single and looking. Most of the people are married or coupled up where I live. It's mostly famine when it comes to dating.
I don't expect any of my friends to bring me up as a potential guy for there female friends. They've mostly seen the BS women have said to me and have basically dropped asking me why I am not looking.
Every now and then me and my friends (my friends and I) hang out in a group. While they are all my friends they wouldn't all necessarily consider each other friends. Some of them do, but not all. If you're in this group and you're single and interested in someone else that happens to be single, by all means go for it. This is a warmer market than trying to pick up someone at a bar. You don't need me.
If you're not adult enough to approach someone else in a group to get to know them better or on an intimate level, I have no confidence that you'll be adult enough to appropriately handle the dissolution of any subsequent relationship that may result from my involvement.
I fear that this would upset the dynamics of the group. I realize that even if they got together without my assistance and it didn't work out there may still be some awkwardness.
As I'm writing this I'm trying to think how I would go about doing it if one of my friends asked me for help. I can't help but think of the notes that were passed around in elementary school:
Do you like me? Check One.
___ YES
___ NO
