I don't believe any 17 year old guy is getting that much sex thrown at them that it's an effort not to give in. If you said jacking off, yeh that'd be self-control (and even more stupid).

The latter being based on nothing at all? How do they possibly have a right to?

As far as long term partners go, I think men are just as picky. I mean, notice on TV how it's always the 30 year old woman who has trouble finding love?

on the other side of the coin, you have "find the farmer a wife" and other such shows.

From that statement i'd think the opposite, i mean maybe the women are too picky themselves and can't find the 'perfect guy' - you know the one to sweep them of their feet, good looking, intelligent, easy to manipulate, and has heaps of money.... is that even possible? Just look at all those shit shows like sex and the city, finding "mr perfect". People watched that show religously for 6 seasons, yet the main character looked like a shaved scrotum and had no chance of picking up anyone with any decent qualities.

I actually think this is a complicated question, given it raises the main causes of attraction and correspondingly a good working definition of 'standards' is appropriate. If you think of standards within a 'attracted to' framework (not specifically sex or dating) then I actually think men hold higher standards, as their attraction circuitry is primarily visual based (i.e. the females "looks"). This is biological, however it can be viewed particularly from a liberal feminist standpoint as superficial and shallow. On attraction alone, if a woman is conventionally beautiful then she will have 'passed' the man's standard (this is not to say he would actually do anything beyond this, given that an interplay of personality etc would then come into play). For the woman though, her standard for attraction is much more fluid and distant from social rigidity. They are constantly judging, based on behavioural traits which align with her biological impressions of masculinity. This can be a variable and often confusing process, even for the female herself (given that the males 'attractiveness' can be lost very quickly at anytime in comparison to the male quickly making up his mind and the female from that point "having passed his test").

So to answer in short, if you are talking about standards in the purely physical realm, the answer is males. In a more complicated, prolonged judging sense, definitely females.
