I find it bizarre that it's 2023 and not only is chess still gender-segregated but they're doubling down on it. It makes sense for physical sports, but chess? Really?
Y'all just scared the girls are gonna wipe the board with you.
Men cannot participate in Women competitions but Women can go to Mens. No one is scared of women, and this is done to promote the game to women.
This is the same as with other sports, like Rallying.
