With the growing awareness of gender equality and the transformation of the Taiwanese military to a volunteer system, the increasing presence of female personnel and the rise in their ranks is considered a normal trend due to the ongoing manpower shortage. However, there has been a decrease in female soldiers recently, leading to a reassessment of the recruitment policies. This shift has resulted in unexpected challenges, such as the need for separate living quarters and related facilities for female soldiers, particularly in remote or specialized units. Changes in the recruitment strategy, influenced by different military leadership attitudes, have caused a shift from an initial excess of female recruits to a more balanced approach in recent years.
