Do women apply more scrutiny when it comes to marriage?
For example a man has no problems marrying a Filipino or a girl from Thailand or Brazil or any other country that is considered to be lesser (no bashing on that 1s second and third world are valid therms) and if she has no income potential and not even owns a bank account thats no biggy either. Do you think modern working women have as many choices or are they far more likely to restrict marriage candidates to those who come from a first world country and make their own money ?

Of course. Women don't think with their private parts.

Modern working women have as many choices as the next person. Whether they bother using them is a personal matter.

Men tend to choose beauty over the ability to make a living. Women tend to choose the ability to make a living. The reason for that is evolution - people want to mate with people who can have healthy children and will help care for them. Of course, it takes a lot to determine if a guy will be faithful, be able to provide for the baby, be non-abusive, or whatever. So I suppose that's a bit different from "she looks healthy to me". I do think that most men getting married probably put a little more thought into it than that, and want a spouse with good qualities, too, but you get the idea.

Of course they do. If handled correctly, marriage for women is a temporary position that has excellent benefits and a more than ample severance package. Men don't focus on material gains from marriage whereas women often do.
