Right-- I read that. I'm just not sure how this violates any of the policies. I may be a simpleton, but "Going above and beyond" for me, is interpreted loosely as "hey, you can't discriminate for any of these reasons-- and we also expect you to be respectful and welcoming."
I have, as far as I know, the autonomy to price however I judge, provided those prices are listed publically. I can choose to send a special offer if I so chose, as well. There wouldnt be a button for that if not.
Is it discrimination if I choose to send you a discounted special offer and not your neighbor?
Interestingly enough, I have already (within a few hours) received an inquiry for one of my spaces, and she mentioned her husband was a Police officer-- she didnt ask for a discount but I assume it was implied.
As an aside, as the proud mom to a gay, woman of color, I am particullary tuned to the discrimination issues. I think the verbage of my listing is pretty clear we welcome everyone, with a grateful and open heart. 😉
I appreciate the points of view from fellow hosts, like yourself, and always welcome a hearty and mutually friendly debate.
