Coming more from a MO hashkafah, I obviously do not believe it makes sense for young women considering marriage to dismiss bochurim out of hand because they grew in a MO household. However what I do find obnoxious is the attitude that young women should not be allowed to make those types of decisions, if that is there preference just as I would respect the decision of a young woman who refused to date any bochurim who were “full time learners” and had no college degree or interest in pursuing a good paying job. Some of the readers here are having a very difficult time accepting the fact that frum young women increasingly are making their OWN decisions about their lives, marriage and family and are no longer willing to obediently accept “directions” from family/friends/teachers etc. Get over it…..those days are fortunately gone (unless, of course, you are the daughter of one of our resident mycogonistic trolls).
