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.
And the other one, Lin Yu-Ting, is in the finals in "her" weight class too.
We'll see on the morrow, if both "totally not men, but real women" just happened to gold-medal their events.
Yep, that's the one I meant.
