Consider that men skew more right-wing than women, and this apartment is in a tech-bro heavy city, with the landlord likely being another tech bro.
It's not strictly discrimination against women, but the likelihood of a woman in that area fitting the landlord's requirement is low. If you're screening for right wing, you're already screening out a lot of women.

Yeah... So, what happens when one "party affiliation" becomes overwhelmingly racist and sexist..? The Supreme Court even ruled that gerrymandering across party lines is totally legal, even if a disadvantaged minority group is known to vote among party lines in an area... Such a weird "loophole." Something's gotta give at some point.
Dude's a nut. May he find his dream MAGA tenant, I guess. I'm sure they'll fit in well in San Francisco.
