This is about the ads themselves I believe, which these ones are fine.
If this applied to targeting wouldn't it mean I can't target only women for my feminine hygiene product? Therefor wasting insane amounts showing ads to men for a product only women need.

- cortesoft 9y agoAre those women going to live in your feminine hygiene product? If not, I am not sure how housing law is applicable to your advertisement?
- Spivak 9y agoBecause it's explaining why the ads aren't in violation of the rule and the intuition for why this situation isn't covered.
- cortesoft 9y agoBut the rule is only about housing, so I am not sure what the hygiene products have to do with it. Are there special houses that cater only to women? Or to black people? What is different about the house that makes it only appealing to those groups?
- paulddraper 9y agoI assume so. I can only speculate why, but communities tend to coalesce around common culture/race, and perpetuate that selection. Ala "Little China".
