Ignoring that the elopement problem was confirmed to be a fabrication your assumes two things, neither of which are likely to be true:
 * 1) You're assuming that it was only mermaids eloping with human men and not mermen eloping with human women or merfolk eloping with same gender partners as well.
 * 2) You're also assuming that Mermaid + Human Guy always equals Mermaid despite merfolk not being mono-gendered to begin with. It's better to assume that a human/Merperson has the same gender odds as a relationship between either two Merpeople or two Humans.

This would also apply to Centaurs so Cerea had a chance of being a guy or at the very least gender ambiguous like Bret of 12: here
