Yeah, no. Landlords don't like renting to single people of either gender. The rental listings usually say Families only or No bachelors. I don't know from where the author got the idea that single men are less likely to be seen as a risk. But that doesn't match my lived experience of more than 7 years in Bengaluru . In one particular instance though, the landlord was willing to rent to spinsters but not to bachelors. Indian women face plenty of structural issues and discrimination. But this particular issue is not gendered. And it is disingenuous that the article tries to spin it that way.
