The fair housing act excludes owners who lease four or fewer single family units. In other words, if you own fewer than four single family units you can discriminate to your heart's content. If you are renting out rooms in your home you can deny anyone for any reason.
As to your fears about the single female with three other males. She knows that there are three male roommates living with her. I'd say it's a bad idea for her but ultimately everyone's actions are their own. You are not responsible for the actions of another.
They are all of legal age. And, after reading more information I may let her have the room after all as long as the guys don't have a problem with.
Who are you, her father?
Maybe she's a nymphomanic, and needs three guys on the premises so that she can cycle through them without causing any unwanted chafing of body parts.

I am one guy, who rooms with two chicks, one of whom is my ex.
Can you imagine the level of patience i have?
Sue you for what? You're being paranoid, like most other small business owners and entrepreneurs.
I think you would create more of a problem by not letting her rent. She's over 18, she's a big girl, and if she thinks she can handle 3 guys, then so be it, let her.
In my mind you could get sued for discrimination as what was said before, if you don't let her rent.
That's just my take.

Forgive my improper citation but readily welcome CorporateThug, DonVito, Flavius, or aphex to correct me:
The OP has violated the Fair Housing Act, 42 U.S.C. 3604 Sec. 408(b) (1968):

You are could what?
GOOD with numbers. Your typos are in an entirely different league compared to Goosemaster's.
Man what a stupid state americas got to.
Rent to a girl, get sued
Refuse, get sued
Don't return her call, get sued
If someone can honestly be taken to court for renting property to a mixed gender bunch of people that is the most rediculous thing I've ever heard in my life, seriously
why don't you ask if those guys want a girl to be their housemates? if they don't want her, then you just tell her those guys don't want a girl.
It's not that they can be taken to court for renting co-ed housing but rather the reprocussions that may or may not result from it.
Again, the OP isn't necessarily responsible for her safety outright but if something came up, shadows of doubt might be cast in his general direction. This is why I, as well as other people, have suggested that the OP have her sign a form saying that she knows what she is getting herself into and he is in no way responsible for anything that may result from an interaction between the mixed sexes.
I do plan to ask the guys. I think they will say yes, that is why I posted here first. I also plan to add a line to her contract saying that she knows there are guys living there and that I am not responsible for interaction between roommates.
