Pretty incredible. Ukrainian women who define themselves as "men" are apparently changing their minds when it comes to being conscripted into the army. Instead, they're trying to flee the country, and are furious they're now being treated as men.

From the Guardian: "When Ukraine imposed martial law on 24 February, all men aged between 18 and 60 were banned from leaving the country. Since then, it is estimated that hundreds of Ukrainian trans people have attempted to cross the border. The Guardian has been told by activists and aid workers that, despite their legal status as women, dozens have been mistreated and pushed back at the borders, with many fearing for their lives in the event that Russia’s transphobic regime takes over."

Ok, wait, so, consider me a man but don't treat me like a man? How dies that even work??
Um....doesn't this mean Ukraine is transphobic like Russia?
