You seem to have not gotten her drift. Her point was that you can't condemn

women for not being Vedic if the sannyasis aren't held to the same benchmark.

This was not a condemnation of sannyasis, it was a defense of the position of

modern women. Just as we don't expect sannyasis to act traditionally, it is

also unrealistic to expect it from modern Western women.

 

The only way it becomes a condemnation is if you say to not be "Vedic" is bad,

but that is the position of the GHQ, not hers.
