With these new rules, FIDE has managed to

  1. Imply the mental inferiority of women
  2. Validate the existence of transgender men
  3. Destroy the integrity of awards record-keeping
  4. Call transgender women men

Very nice, FIDE, incredible mental gymnastics performance! 👏 Add them to the ever lengthening sports federation shitlist.

    That is their reason.

    They have a separate women’s league because almost no women would place in the open.

    It’s the same justification that’s being made in other sports, only this time it’s not muscle, it’s brains.
