- Sgt. Daria Filipieva, a medic in the Ukrainian army, couldn’t make it back to her unit when the war broke out, so she joined the volunteer forces defending the capital. Read more: wapo.st/3ucPh9N. Subscribe to The Washington Post on UA-cam: wapo.st/2QOdcqK

Government: 'women and children can leave; men aged 18-60 must stay and fight.
Woman: 'women are stronger than men'
🤦
wapo propaganda lol, interesting that theyre not demanding 50/50 representation in combat troops tho - variable speed feminism
@космический кадет Your point is different to the one that I made... I'm pointing out the contradictions of feminism.
I'm not saying that women and children should stay and fight; I'm saying that you can't have it all ways... it's the men who are staying and fighting and dying...
By the way, everyone suffers in war - you can't say women suffer more, because everyone suffers... men are human beings as well and war is evil, full stop.
Feminism is cancer.
Yeah, anyone who has actually served in the military knows that women make it miserable.
Please listen to what she says before you pass judgment. You really never been through war if you think people care about gender as much as they do protecting their own.
@@mydogsteppedona4431 Yeah, I think I listened to what she said, thanks for the reminder.
Then require women to stay and fight just like they require men. So much propaganda from feminist. Dislike.
This woman, “I’m not a woman.”
Same woman, “women are stronger than men “
Describes how men have felt in war since the beginning of war. SMH
Spends most of her time not fighting.
Female logic for you.
That's a way of saying she mean she is not only a women
You lack deep understanding
rest in peace, Dear Hero 💔💔💔
"Women are much stronger than men." I'll remember that statement when all the feminist decide to play house when the draft starts again.
Very good point especialky uk offering
Wasn't it like 90% of women couldn't pass the male PT exam that 90% of men could pass? I think it was US marines. 🤣
СЛАВА УКРАЇНІ!! 🇺🇦💪🇺🇦💪🇺🇦💪🇺🇦
women been getting out of deployments by getting pregnant since women could get deployed. And that's in the military they chose to join-let alone a draft
That sounds good and empowering but reality is totally different
What do you say now, 6 month later?
@@bodyabodya627 I’d say that women are definitely not stronger than men
Explain please.
not really. Women have shown to have more long term stamina. It also shows in ultra long sport competitions ( lasting 10+ days), which women regularly win. In general, women get less fatigued and have better stress management, which makes them better in long term combat, contrary to a short time raids.
@@minaolenella869 Still we dont see many women in the wars. Any particular reason?
Rest in peace, dear Блискавка! 🕊️
Nope men are much stronger than women not opposite. Its a fact. If you can't accept it then be alone.
A bullet of a woman is as deadly as a bullet of a man. Body strongness not needed for a fight with distance weapons. In middle ages the body strongness was important when you fought with the sword on close distance.
@@zetareticuli841 I won't repeat my comment again. Read it better if you don't understand.
@@diabolicamires A gym trained woman is stronger than an untrained man. So it depends on the person, not to the sex.
@@zetareticuli841 wrong. An averange man is already stronger than a trained woman. It depends on the sex not the person. Biology first class.
Testosterone: male hormone
Also Testosterone: makes muscles and builds strength.
Be quiet if you can't handle facts.
@@zetareticuli841 It never depends on person. Only gender matters. I can lift more than any girl in gym combined. I am not even working out. So your states are wrong. Gender says everything.
Over two million women have left the country - one stays and this is what we get smh! I’m so very tired of yalls agenda - gender based- race based - the narrative is very old u have created a terrible society
While I don't support Putin's invasion of Ukraine, his words about the west and how it's built upon lies, is correct. People are made stupid on purpose so that the elites can easily control them; depression is increasing; confusion ..you name it.
Luckily, it will all collapse soon and everything can go back to being normal.
"I do not know what the f..k are they doing here? Better go home". God bless her.
5-6 thousand Russian soldiers have killed in under two weeks of the war. Hundreds of Russian soldiers have surrendered because they didn't want to die for third world dictator, Vlad Putin's insanity. Russian soldiers experiencing shortages of food and fuel due to the sanctions. Russian soldiers are having a difficult time defeating armed Ukrainian civilians who aren’t trained for combat. Vlad's war has proven that the Russian military is inept, unprepared and low on morale.
In the very beginning when the convoy was stalled the rations were expired as well. Putin sent his soldiers to fight without enough food or gas and rotten food to boot. Almost like he knew or didn't care they would return. The pictures I see are such young men...barely out of high school.
My heart hurts for Ukrainians that have been captured.
How are women stronger than men? Tell me please.
So the women that fled should all come back and fight for their country’s independence, right? Or do we just like it because it sounds good & empowering?
Over 32,000 women serve in the Ukrainian military and the number keeps growing every day.
And none of them sees actual combat
@@jamesaryananderson8620 Want to bet ?
@@guidototh6091 Watching combat footage is more than enough to prove that
@@Tovalokodonc The women of Ukraine are brave.
Whatever helps you sleep at night
I would like to see a video of these strong Ukrainian woman in the front lines showing those weak man 'military man' how it's done.
In heart of the war!
Jeez the media is fucked nowdays
If thats the case, make all the women stay and the men flee to take care of the children.
That would be sexism, though. And no, it's not sexism to force the men to stay behind and fight while the women are allowed to flee; as is the case with the "alleged" racism against white people, sexism against men doesn't exist.
You're probably a privileged white man anyway; your opinion or rights are not valid nowadays, go f*ck yourself.
Idi*t.
You should be ashamed of yourself.
F*cking racist, idi*t.
yall believing this is an accurate depiction of soldiering in combat are hopeless. seemed as realistic as some fairy tale war propaganda
REST IN PEASE,HERO OF THE LIGHT.❤
She meant in a Mental way perspective. Men Deal with things alot more differently Mentally. Dont let this go over your Head.
You understand. It's why many women held positions of authority in ancient times.
When emotions are so so strong for you you learn and know exactly how to deal with each and every one, the good and bad.
Women are not mentally stronger than men in combat. Anyone who actually believes this, is so brainwashed by the current woke-agenda that they have no footing in reality whatsoever.
Society wants to turn you all into controllable sheep; don't let them.
Wrong
Men and stoicism are much much better
@@Leaffordes thanks be to god for your intelligence, I'm sick to death of this brainwashed, propaganda xxxx,, my relative as been in all the forces,and not only women have no strength endurance, willpower on manoeuvres, they physically and mentally crumble,,they have not the male physical body or mental attitude,, also this stupid idea of placing the (female) in the male to male environment of the forces,prisons,police etc etc is a real disaster,,
@@jamesaryananderson8620 No, that's right. You only say that because of the societal pressure for men to hold in their emotions. Men and women process emotions differently. Men are more likely to withdraw into themselves and distract themselves from negative feelings. But women take time to recognize what they're feeling, accept it, and sometimes express it. People see women as weaker for doing this, but it's helping them in the long run because they're working through it. Men appear to have it all together, but they'll eventually explode if they don't face what's bothering them. If you take time to understand and recognize your reaction to a negative situation instead of trying to ignore it, you will learn how to regulate your reaction and become more in-tune with your emotions. This is what can make women more emotionally resilient to hardship.
If we are talking strictly physical strength, men remain, on average, larger and stronger than women, possessing 26lbs (10kg) of skeletal muscle, 40% more upper-body strength and 33% more lower body strength. This is basic biology, not sexism ✌️
Let's try not to forget her.
RIP
R.I.P. our hero!
Rest in Peace, dear ❤
Rest in peace 💔
that's a very clean uniform. Spotless child's uniform.
A woman, on average, is emotionally 'smarter' than men; which basically suggests that they don't perform as well under fire, in straight contradiction to what she's implying.
The Marines even did a study and found that out
Yes, it was an inexact statement, but we understand it was said in a colloquial
conversation. Plus a woman like that, in her situation, is entitled to say such a thing as a motivational remark.
Came here to laugh at this statement.
The primary reason woman are inappropriate in combat units , that no one will discuss for fear of EO complaint, is that combat units require the highest level of cohesiveness attainable. However , when males and females are mixed , romantic relationships inevitably blossom, thus critically eroding this all - important unit cohesiveness.
COULD NOT AGREE MORE
Also, female soldiers can't even carry their equipment. It's all in physical strength
thank you, and rest in peace
Then why arent more women fighting if they're stronger? This is such a disrespect for the death of millions of soldiers
I wonder if a male said. ‘Men are so much stronger than females’ I wonder… How long would he survive?
Female privilege
Why do some men, like a very small minority, always get offended by the strength of women?
What are you afraid of? Losing your identity as "the stronger and more bold sex"?
Most men I met are so beyond this limitations and freely allow women to be without weak snakry comments such as these
@@SantaBarbaraSongbird No, I’m not scared of anything and nobodys saying anyone is stronger than anybody. Its just the case of the role reversal. If it were switched around there would be raining hell on earth for the man. Say what you like but its anything but equality.
Men have been saying that since the dawn of time. I believe her. 🙏 💛💙
@@SantaBarbaraSongbird I don't think it's a question of fear, rather a way to point out a one-way street relationship between genders as well as a deliberate denial of biology - women are, in pretty much most cases, _not_ stronger than men in a war context. Saying, repeating it doesn't make it true.
An admirable woman, like Ukraine itself. Slava Ukraina! 🇺🇦
Agreed! She should be *"Woman of the Year"* instead of Rachel Levine who's a biological male. I see why Putin invaded Ukraine under Biden presidency...
so why are so many women fleeing then, stay and fight
How many exactly since you know? Give me number or just remain silent on what u don't know
Look up the number of refugees
Millions
@@SantaBarbaraSongbird Please tell me you're using irony and you're not just blindly ignorant to reality.
Millions. Don't y*u have shame bi**h??@@SantaBarbaraSongbird
Is this a joke ?
great job 👍
R.I.P.
If women are so capable, they should extend the law preventing men from leaving to women as well.
The only thing they're stronger in is the delusion.
One Badass soldier…WooHoo 🙏❤️
Really? Then let her fight her own war. Consider men are mostly doing the fighting. You remind me of Kamala Harris
@@magiccarpet9172 easy now- I only comment on the one soldier….
Men have made Our Country as it is today. All the life’s loss to protect us Americans I remember every single day. Plz never compare me to this POS VP!!!!!!
rest in peace, my dearest friend
I will always remember you
Dearest Sgt. Daria Filipieva, you are not just a mentor and hero to the beautiful people of Ukraine, you are a mentor and hero to ALL WOMEN ACROSS THE GLOBE. Deepest respect, please stay safe, gentle hugs from Canada
Your comment is trash couldn’t be more empty void of meaning.
👏 🥲 We good women and men stand with Ukrainian people against evil and wicked monsters in Human form
@@FlyingJay117 Cynical people perform worse on cognitive tests and health well being but continue on with your works devoid of meaning for it helps us to no longer hear or see you
@@SantaBarbaraSongbird yes bigot Clap for yourself bigot!
@@FlyingJay117 I still love you after we're done on this planet but for now we must make believe in order to grow. I hope u understand
What an asinine thing to say.
I know so many American women in the US military who have such similar stories. She is doing what she was trained to do, but with such compassion and care. Women are strong, we are willing to face imposing enemies without allowing fear to paralyze us and still hold onto the hope of tomorrow under the worst of circumstances. When you are a medic, you're told that you will be on the battlefield without a weapon and a great big red cross on your arm, essentially a target. She's a brave woman, but she is also a soldier. What a powerful combination. God keep her safe.
Are they soldiers? If the American woman are soldiers then military speaking, that would be very unfortunate for your country.
Combat medics are still armed...
oh s hut up. yall females are so up yourselves. your not eveb fighting on the frontlines, look at all the bodies laid on the ground its all men. women just talk talk talk.
And you also must know that men are in majority even in armed medics in worldwide and US. More than 70%
God bless you and keep you safe 🙏 You're an amazing woman and medic ⭐

They can take more stress and pain but they are not physically stronger. That is if we are talking real world and not fairy woke land.
Are you saying women can endure more stress during combat? Do you have a source for that, my bro, or are you just being a sheep here, incapable of your own critical thinking?
Well even the stress and pain thing is a myth. There are many studies that show that it's just not true.
amazing
❤️❤️❤️
Respect for ya’ Madam .The orcs simply can’t win against your courage and dedication. My prayers for you all.❤️💪💪🇺🇦🇮🇹Slava Ukraine.

Speechless...
You are an amazing example to humans. 💛💙🙏
What?? To be a snaper? For money..??? Are u crazy🤯🤯
All you men in the comments sitting in the comfort of your own home in safety and security insulting her. How dare you? She stepped up when she could
Have run to defend her homeland, her people, and her children’s future. Shame on you for belittling her when she has more courage in one finger than most men have in their entire lives. Rest in peace, soldier. Glory to Ukraine
"Women are much stronger" What a joke
Is she strong enough to evacuating civilians, because that would preserve lives
Indomitable

It is all relative. Depends on your perspective. We all need to step up & not put others down. The title is misleading cuz anyone can say they’re better than somebody else but it’s all relative & Honestly not nice to say things like that. Are taller people smarter? Are blondes dumb? Thanks For the enlightenment! Peace Love in Harmony to all. Solve problems in a positive approach is the answer. Namaste 🙏
Oh shut up!! They were just showing a tough woman when some of the men ran away.
Context! Context! You missed the point 👉. You shot wide, MatAtMac. Yeah you did.
That’s an actually reasonable way to look at this. Stark contrast to most of the comments here even mine.
@@jamesplymire5342 is she a tough woman yeah, I’d say so. Men ran away?? Should I remind you that men were not allowed to leave the country when the conflict started. Women were encouraged to leave. Like Bro said it’s all relative.
@@jamesplymire5342 You can show someone's tough without putting others down.
kia kaha
Strong woman, much respect.🇺🇦🕊
women are not strong you naive little brainwashed circus clown. Standing somewhere making a disrespectful video is nothing strong. 😅
What’s happening on the other side Washington DC POST? We are not getting updates about the other side as well.please give us updated on both sides.it’s been more than 2 years now with so much trust.but please give us more updates on the Russian and Ukrainian side .More updates about Kyiv in particular
She was death in front.
Imagine femininity this fragile...jesus

That don't look like the front lines to me, all the people that are dying fighting are men except 1 woman pilot who was shot down and killed.

Stupid comment. Pure fantasy and unnecessary delusion.
Women are as equal as men. Without men, you are gone. Facts.
That's a lie if I ever heard one.
Delusion on a whole another level 🤣
Stronger than man hahahahaha
Remember their words if a war ever breaks out in your country. Someone who's 'stronger' than us should definitely be drafted the same as us. 50/50 representations, not 1% in an army of millions.

Maybe we should draft women into front line combat positions and give the men a break.
I can't find this place on the map,? Did your crack team of producers misspell it? Asking for a friend.
Wonderful lady
wow
Why are y’all so angry at this woman? She is clearly here to protect her country and care for her people. What else do you want from her? To leave them to die?
Wow

Brave woman, had to smile when you used the F word 😁
Huge respect for this woman, her beautiful nature and smile will be the guiding light a lot of soldiers will be very pleased to see in their desperate time on need. She is amazing. Bless her x War needs both men and woman in combat. We all can bring something into a battle. I’m a nurse and thought about becoming a medic before doing my training but being a medic in the military is limiting as a female. Nursing gave me more choices, why be a medic if you can not even be involved or help on yourself the front lines. This was early 90s. I think woman have a huge amount of courage, strength, stamina and intelligence that could be well used if only given a chance to prove themselves. :)
Women shouldn't be in combat, because the men would be protecting the female soldiers.
🇷🇺🇺🇦 It became known who posed in a mask under the guise of "simple Ukrainian girls" addressed the Belarusian military.
Inquisitive telegrammers identified in “a simple Ukrainian girl who fights with the volunteers of the Kalinouski battalion and calls on Belarusian servicemen to go over to the side of the Armed Forces of Ukraine” as a well-known actress from the Central Institute of Psychology and Culture, who has already been repeatedly caught on staged “tearful” videos. So, this is Molchanova Anna Sergeevna, an employee of the 72nd Center for Information and Psychological Operations of the SSO of Ukraine, a native of the city of Krivoy Rog, Dnepropetrovsk region.
Previously, this person has already been filmed in fake videos, where the Russians have already managed to "burn her mother", "bomb the school", etc.
Yes, all that Case writes is true, God will bless all Russian soldiers who are merely in Ukraine to liberate our brother Ukrainians from the Nazis.
When women take up arms to defend what's right you better watch out!!!...
