Sure, for women. But to tell a man to be selective when searching for a female partner, and to give him criteria and heuristics to help him select are labeled as sexist. After all, every woman has worth, a woman can never be told that she has to do any self reflection to find a quality man, we can't be allowed to admit that some women are undesirable just like some men are.

Yikes, it sounds like you have something you need to work on.

Like what?

Not creating weird misogynistic strawmen would be a cool start

Oh I see, you don't have a point. Got it.

No I said it. Not really my problem if you can’t read that, since it was honestly pretty obvious. And the other reply to your comment laid out basically the same criticism.

I'm not seeing a criticism here, not even a "you're wrong", just snide allusions that I should know something you know but I don't and so there's something wrong with me.

And there very well may be, which is why I'm giving you an opportunity to help me correct my misunderstanding and asking for exactly what I said that you think is incorrect.
