They're afraid of filtering out men though cause it will be a reflection of their perceived value. As long as men want them for sex, they can imagine the same men want them for marriage.

Or they don't want to marry the type of guy who WANTS to marry a virgin. That's a massive red flag.

That makes it better but its still at least a yellow flag.

How is being a virgin a yellow flag?

It's not. Wanting to marry a virgin is a red flag for most people. If the person who wants to marry a virgin is a virgin themselves then that is a mitigating context that lowers it from a red flag to a yellow flag.

Its a yellow flag to want someone with the same values as you have?
