Luckily I go with a Fellow Villager, so not a problem for me, but I feel your pain.
Actually it is opposite of discrimination. If two or more singles are residents they get the resident ID. Similarly, married residents cannot get a resident pass for a friend unless they are a registered guest. Why should there be different policies based on marital status? This whole argument makes no sense to me. Anyone who is not a resident is not entitled to a resident pass or privilege.
