Pavlichenko described herself as a tomboy who was “unruly in the class room” but athletically competitive, and who would not allow herself to be outdone by boys “in anything.”

Did she ever marry? Did she ever have any children? She sounds a lot like a Rosie O'Donnell-type.

Women with that personality type are not necessarily gay. Some women are athletic, competitive, aggressive, etc. Labeling that behavior in a woman as “gay” does them a great disservice, as does labeling effeminate men as “gay”.
