there are exceptions, but most of what I'm reading in this thread isn't that she's not allowed to have standards. It's that maybe guys have standards as well and she's going to get filtered out for quite a few people, based on some reasons noted. And they find that a bit ironic.
It doesn't have to be a big massive 'inherent value of women' discussion. Just that she isn't going to be an attractive partner to some/many.
I could be wrong but I sense a double standard where, dammit she's allowed to have standards and doesn't deserve some toothless bum, but the minute people see her in a similar, non attractive light that's somehow awful and an affront to the inherent value of women.
Don't get me wrong, there is some language here like those who have and have not pushed out rug rats that isn't appropriate, my point I guess is that it seems to me from your post guys can't have the very standards she's entitled to.
