I wish these kinds of services could target specific at risk groups, not a gender.

I would be happy if it was focused on homeless parents with young children, or homeless victims of family violence. With those things they might still end up getting only women, but at least they'd be selected based on their situation instead of bigotry.

I really wish that these services were for people to build huge houses instead of tiny houses, and that the houses had big chicken legs and could run around like baba yaga
