sorry to be OT, but there is no federal law prohibiting discrimination based 
on sexual orientation, be it on the job or in housing. While some states and 
cities have passed laws prohibiting this kind of discrimination, it is not a 
federal law. Conservatives tend to whine about "gays wanting special rights," 
when this topic comes up, as if the ability to live and work where you want 
is special.
