"Can think for herself".
Dude really wants to do the "Where do you want to go eat?" "I dunno, where do you want to go eat?" vicious cycle?

He forgot to include "- Can recognize satire"
I'm seriously on the fence with this one. A couple of points make it really difficult for it to not to be satire, but I've met guys who would unironically think of "can think for herself" as a malus - but they wouldn't admit it out loud. Now, can there be some kind of cave creature so pulled apart from civilized life that they would think this and post it?
I'm pretty sure this guy does want a woman who can think for herself. Otherwise he's gonna have to tell her how and when to clean the house, plan and cook meals, take care of their kids, and manage the household...etc. He's gunning for the Monkey's Paw version of a tradwife.
“Can think for herself” makes me thing they’re just trolling
Has all teeth ✔️
Yeah thats just too over the top
Thinking for herself is a requirement in the industrialized world, since adulting is a subset. Maybe there's a farm that raises gentle ladies-in-waiting with only domestic skills the way we train service dogs to help disabled people, but such women are not found in general society.
Also, not thinking for herself makes her unemployable in a society where all adults are required to earn a living (which often takes more than one full-time job). So this requirement implies the guy is rich enough to afford a family on one income.
In short, like the 1950s man, he's not looking for a date or a wife. He's looking for a household appliance. Kenmore will sort him out.
As for ~~the rest of us losers~~ working class guys, real women who think for them selves and can adult are an asset and a keeper. Heck, if they can think for us too, sometimes, that's a bonus.
You are underestimating christo-fascists and their desire for ultra traditional gender roles.
Having a penis conspicuously absent from this list.
Even this guy knows trans women are women. That battle has been lost and won.
Trans Inclusive Radical Misogyny, where trans women are inferior because they're women, not because they're trans.
