Have you ever been personally challenged or witnessed another man being challenged on grounds of ethics, morality, fairness or similar for having any preferences for potential dating partners; where you have also heard similarly equitable equivalent preferences from a woman or women, that were openly shared with confidence, listened to respectfully, received warmly without being questioned and accepted as fair, reasonable and proportionate..?

I’ve listed four examples with equitable equivalents; including for each of the stated preferences, a paraphrased response; each formed in bit-part from several separate statements thus non verbatim being from different individuals as their reasons for justification or to challenge.
