Probably an unpopular opinion, but why is this a problem? When you're living in such close quarters with people, you should have some freedom in choosing who you're living with.

There are also cultures/religions where cohabitation with those of the opposite sex is taboo.
The race angle is more thorny, but I'd rather lean in the direction of allowing people to choose who they co-habitate with.
