The importance was the last characher 侠 which carries a special meaning in Chinese and there is no Ebglish equivalent. These people's 侠 behavior are examplified by western folk story hero such as "Robin Hood". Her husband was an official in the Ching government and she detested their behaviors. She seperated with him by splitting the money and went to Japan where eventually she met those Chinese people who were organizing the revolution against the Manchurian controlled Chinese country. Among these people were 孫中山, 馮自由(my grandfather) and 梁慕光 etc. Through 馮自由's introduction she joint the 三合会. That was the beginning of her revolution activities. Before she was caught in 绍兴, she had the oportunity to escape but chose to remain. My "opinion" of her choosing the route of martyr is of three folds: a) The obvious one, was that "革命要流血才会成功", b) the government would not involve others if she was caught, c) the real subconcious motivation behind it was that she was absolutely dispair of her life: the failure of her marriage, family and that all things she did were failure. She was 33 year old. I “sort” of agree with the comments expressed by the gentleman at the end of your video that gender or feminism was not an issue with the behavior of 秋瑾. 秋瑾 called herself 鉴湖女侠.
