At first I interpreted it to be housing for vulnerable women and victims of DV, then I read the article, this cannot be legal surely? My local mens wood working mental health club got shut down for not allowing women to partake and that was on Wednesdays at 6pm-7pm, but an entire housing block can be women only in the middle of a housing crisis because “gender pay gap”?? Very silly.

TIL that only women deserve affordable and same housing
And people wonder why more and more men are becoming anti feminists

To answer the question people probably have – Men are allowed on site and to live there if they are partners of women with tenancies, however I believe they will only issue new tenancies solely in the name of women and will not do joint tenancies.

I went looking for any terms that they might have published for this, but can’t find anything of substance. I’m very curious to know how they plan to deal with male children who pass 18 or whatever. Would the terms of a lease be strong enough to automatically evict them in that instance in English law?

Are any of you learning that feminism/progressivism is not to do with treating people equally? It’s all about special advantages.
Are we learning yet?

Is this new? there were women only lodges in major cities between the 1880s and 1920s. They died out slowly with the campaigns for women to be treated equally and not be seen as fragile and needing of special protections.

Excellent news, glad to see we’re doing means testing, sex specific affordable housing as men account for 85% of the homeless population.

Genuine question, what’s the outline for the women-only rules? Is it just that a women has to be on the lease or is it prohibitive enough to mean that the women can’t invite male partners, family etc. to stay?

Brilliant. Now lets do black men-only housing blocks. In fact, why don’t we segregate every racial and/or sexuality group? Why not just mandate in law actually? It sounds brilliant!

Apart from likely being illegal, how would this even work?
Are male delivery agents and tradesman allowed?
Are women not allowed to have male visitors? What about their brothers, fathers, bf, husbands and sons? Do 18+ year old sons have to move out?

Public resources should address poverty, abuse, and homelessness based on evidence of need, not identity politics. Anything else isn’t equality- it’s favoritism dressed up as progress. If we want real equality, scrap the sex test and allocate based on who needs it most, full stop.

>Many of them struggle to find a home due to the gender pay gap
Imagine claiming to be for gender equality, then engaging in gender discrimination on the back of a long debunked myth.

“The scheme will also house essential workers in the community, including teachers, NHS workers and transport staff.”
There’s no gender gap in these industries really.
My wife’s a teacher and I work in the railway, these roles are standard contracts offered to all.

TL;DR: Apparently yes, it is intended for victims of domestic violence. The link excludes this for some reason.
So I actually read the link to Ealing Time OP posted and it mentioned nothing about this being for victims of domestic violence.
I googled it and it was actually surprisingly hard to find further info: almost every site had the exact same word-for-word commentary. Written by an AI perhaps?
Finally on Landlordzone and The Guardian they mentioned yes, it is intended for women who have been victims of domestic violence and abuse from landlords.
