I am no legal expert so I won't comment on that aspect but I cant say I am surprized by the kneejerk MRA-type reaction here. Here is the actual issue, current "mixed" hacker houses don't attract women so this is a thing to address that weather its harassment or just general discomfort of living with unrelated people of the opposite gender. Another problem is the population of SF skews high percentage of men. If the men here can leave their tribalism for one second, it would possibly be a good thing for the people complaining or vaugely making dog whistles about this too. Personally the heavy male-to-female ratio is kind of a reason I would rather not live/work in SF as a single guy(this is me appealing to the most selfish instinct of the commenters here). Also if I do get married and have a daughter, I want her to have the same job options and location options as me, same with my sisters and cousins and female friends and I hope some of you can put aside your own fragile ego to think of those women. I am also willing to bet no women would be in the comments here because they have learned to know how toxic this comment section will be.

I think too often we make the mistake of thinking people have “fragile egos” when in reality they just don’t give a dump about what the other side wants or thinks.
