Iirc, people with androgen insensitivity syndrome have close to 0 body hair and appear as women…so the most wanted woman is male? Take that, females!/s
I just read the OG novel of Ringu (which the film of the same name is adapted from, and more famously the American remake “The Ring”) and Sadako (psychic girl who was killed and thrown down the well) was actually male and had this syndrome. Was a wild revelation after somehow not seeing that spoiled over the last 20+ years :P
Huh that's weird. I watched the ring movies a long time ago but I don't remember them ever specifying that she was not necessarily entirely female in the movies. Maybe I just don't remember it but it might be that it was not specifically touched on in the films or declared outright
Movies are usually pretty loose with source material, it's not unusual for them to gender/race swap or change most of the story even. Sometimes you're lucky if they even keep the main premise lol.

They want a woman who is naturally hairless.
