Iranian women were banned from soccer stadiums for 40 years, Iran lifted the ban in 2019. this was a sexist law, during that time some women faked beards to enter and the reuters reported about that saying "'Fearless' Iranian women defy stadium ban with fake beards and wigs" .. You can find similar articles from both right and left media praising them and calling them hero and freedom fighters.

The same thing with women in Saudi Arabia who defied the driving ban. all of them were praised by the media. left and right.

The US have a male only draft, which is even more sexist. if you can't attend the soccer stadium you can watch it at home. if you die in war there is nothing you can do ! but men who "dodge" the draft are not praised as heros ! they are mocked and ridiculed ! it's even considered an accusation ! an article in the Times titled "Cheney accused by rivals of draft dodging" another say "Donald Trump is a draft-dodging coward"

There are currently 45 countries with male only conscription.
