Yes, I the “civil rights” people graciously, if a little hesitantly, agreed that “master bedroom” would be okay. They also agreed that “family room” was not a violation.

You should check your state laws. I believe the laws against saying things like christian household or even outright discriminating against someone for any reason can be legal if you own/rent less then 4 dwellings.

They’ve never heard of master of the house I take it.

Some of the words and phrases real estate lawyers recommend being careful about using when advertising include: "couples", "professional", "walking distance", "nanny's suite", "family friendly", "quiet neighborhood", and "luxury". A 2009 article in the New York Post listed the seven dirty words of real estate advertising: exclusive, quiet, private, bachelor, kids, walking and playroom.

“Sidewalk” discriminates against cripples; “Magnificent view” hurts the blind; and “mother-in-law suite” is just a bad idea all the way around!

There is no end to the way the discriminating mind works, is there?
