set;
}

PropertyInfo [] properties = MyType.GetProperties(
    BindingFlags.Instance | BindingFlags.Public);

IList<PropertyInfo> crawlableProperties = properties.Where(
    p => p.GetCustomAttributes(
        typeof(AvoidThisProperty), true)
        .Count() == 0);

You'd also have to create the AvoidThisProperty

[AttributeUsage(AttributeTargets.Property)]
public class AvoidThisPropertyAttribute : Attribute
{
   // Doesn't need a body
}

You still have access to all the properties, but the LINQ statement would generate a list of the desired properties.

If you could avoid full accessibility, reflection would have no sense
