Men can have issues with women too and It cause us to lose respect for them. If they don't hurt us, we'll respect them because they're worthy of that.
I'm going to assume he's a 'nice guy' and they get their share of heart for a number of reasons. Maybe he lost that respect and wants to get it back.
Best of luck.

"A woman I (he) can respect....." is guy-talk for: .. a girl who isn't a slut....
Hope this helps.....

Sounds like he has a list of attributes he expects in a mate. Why not simply ask him. "I appreciate you feeling so strongly about whom you date. Would you please explain what attributes you consider to be respect-worthy and which attributes you find to be a problem?"
Maybe he means he wants a woman who earns her own money, or maybe he means he wants someone who has never so much as held another man's hand, maybe he wants a woman who is impeccably dressed at all times, who knows? You aren't a mind-reader, and it's a perfectly reasonable question to ask, just ask it with calm curiosity.
