A two-panel meme contrasting historical crossdressing instances in China. The left panel features a traditional Chinese painting of a robed figure with a floral headpiece, accompanied by red text: 'China then' and 'Woman disguised herself as a man to fight in the army' (likely referencing the Hua Mulan legend). The right panel shows a black-and-white photograph of a person in elaborate imperial-style clothing with dragon embroidery and a hat, paired with yellow text: 'Also China then' and 'Man disguised himself as a woman to be a spy for some frenchman'.
