Fair Housing laws do not apply to an owner renting a room in their house. Civil rights laws MAY be violated, but not fair housing.

I haven’t looked at the Fair Housing Act lately, but it used to be that where you are renting out rooms in your own home, where you are living, you are free to discriminate on any basis you wish to.
