Even in Wuxia which is genre contained in a settled continent, where there are strong female heroes is a paradox compared to how women were treated in many Asian countries.John Wayne playing the Khan is rather ironic. In much of Asia, the Mongols and the Gobi desert were seen in the same light as a rough frontier and "untamed savages."[Useless knowledge]Vetigable soup is a new menu item for the Mongols. It was introduced by the communist after they forced them to settle into farms.[/usless knowledge]</blockquote>
