Only rent to women

Hey, this is your home. You are allowed to decide who you want in there. If you’re worried about violating equal housing laws, know that it is legal to specify the gender of a tenant if the tenant will be sharing communal spaces with you, such as a kitchen, living room, bathroom, etc. You cannot specify gender when renting a home in which you will not also dwell, but if you will be living there with the tenant, you can specify gender.
