That would be a big plus though.
And that is your opinion.
Again, you are missing the point. It’s that the point of a protected space for women is to promote women’s participation in chess, not to overly tout their position over others.
And no, this does not have to do with the intelligence curve. It’s entirely about careers and participation.
Come to think about it, maybe it’s probably similar to how weight classes work in martial arts, except that the point of this is to guarantee that women can progress somewhat within their careers.
Of course I do not agree that we need to elevate or celebrate them to the level of grandmasters.
In a specific case of transgenders, I understand that transgender women are excluded until an official statement of medical or psychological evaluation has been made, to prevent cases where men illicitly transition just to play in these, and pardon my sexism, weaker leagues.
You know what, I also hate these women’s only scholarships and accelerated education programs too, but I was just speaking the way of the world, not my opinions.
Based on my position in STEM education as a lecturer I am not allowed to have opinions. (Not until I receive full prof.)
That isn’t the problem. The problem is how it has been naturally male-dominant makes it naturally unfriendly to other groups in the first place.
Not everyone is comfortable with this. By a large margin. The dedication of an event for women only creates that comfort zone.
This situation, and I humbly state I mean no fallacy, is strikingly similar to STEM education. Nobody is preventing them from joining, nobody cares if anyone likes it or not, but the fact that it is dominated by a specific group in the “open” field makes it less appealing to the other groups.
We are not discussing the physical advantages. We are discussing about career advantages.
Traditionally chess has been a men’s game, and female adoption is limited. The creation of an exclusive women’s division is to generate a pathway to success for women, even if it’s known to have a lower ceiling compared to men. Basically, it is to foster the game in females.
It’s still criminal in my country, which means even if RWS does not complain, the ISP can still complain and the police will still arrest.
The law is incredibly stupid at times.
Five assholes, four idiots, and then there’s me.
Keep doing the same damn show over and over, the definition of insanity.
Might refer to more games than one, but just let it be.
Because anyway, you eventually lose your humanity.
I learned a lot, but one thing: use a coconut for its intended purpose only.
In Thailand, a university provides a four-year standard higher education. A college is either:
In our language, if you are going to take a four-year higher ed program, you always say university not college.
Contrary to popular belief among foreigners, we actually acquire our sustenance from Mama (instant noodles).
I’ll just second OP and say that my girlfriend keeps watching that real shit over and over to the point that we can almost act out the entire thing.
Unfortunately, in Thailand where I live, both “X” and “Ten” refer to something unspeakable.
Received an invite after a week.
It isn’t bad of a turnaround time, really.
As the rule is blanket, you can ride one maybe in your school uniform but on a Saturday (maybe after you’re done with cram school – some crams ask you to wear your uniform because it’s how they improve their reputation by recording live sessions with students from many good schools). If that happens and the disciplinary officer knows, you’re given a strike.
But then how do I assert my dominance at meetings? By having hentai on when plugging in the projector?
