Gay couple accomodation

Why the emphasis on that you are a gay couple ? Would it not just be the same for any couple no matter of sexual orientation, I might be being a bit of a prick but constantly you have people complaining about how gays are singled out for bad treatment when sometimes they might just enforce it on themselves ( obviously its still wrong of course though)

Some places are unfortunately rather uncomfortable with gay people. Some places prefer to advertise themselves as 'gay-friendly' so they could include homosexuals/bisexuals etc in their audience.

If being gay wasn't an issue, it would not mind wheter I mentioned it or not, don't you think? However, when I was enquiring for accommodation at Greenstead House and I asked explicit if they have any policy about gay couples (for example, a no discrimination one), the owner immediately told me that all accomodation at Greenstead, Forest and Candan Houses were booked, and maybe I would prefer to rent an independent flat were I "will have [my] own front door key to the flat [and I am] free to choose whom wish to live with". It sounds really respectful, but sounds like "we don't want problems with you, people, please stay away". Maybe I'm exaggerating and they really already have every double rooms booked for 2012-2013... But, just in case, I rather to be frank from the begginig to suffer with an "uncomfortable" landlord for 11 months...
