To get rather dark about that one specifically, I bet that if (when?) China assaults Taiwan, this individual will be more than happy to use "her" special status as a woman to avoid the draft, lol...
I heard of at least a couple of instances of Ukrainian men dressing up as women to do exactly that, while fleeing across the border...
Easy way to out a coward. Especially one with apparent "fighting" skills, lol...
Yes, and also no. If I were Ukrainian, I wouldn't want to fight and die for Ukraine. Heck, I wouldn't fight and die for my own government. I love my nation, but "my" government is a joke. I'm not going to hate on people for fleeing from their own tyrants. I'd rather they stood up and fought them, but fleeing is still a better option than fighting for them.
In Ukraine's case, I'd agree. Refusing to fight for the revolutionary government that overthrew a president you may very well have voted for in 2010 is not cowardice, it's refusal to commit treason against yourself.
Yep, that's the one I meant.

Yeah, you fight for your family. Not for your government.
If you and your family can flee - then flee.
The government doesn't care if you die - cause they & all their families are never found at the front.

Yeah those people you don't know in your hypothetical fantasy scenario sound like real pieces of shit.
