In case somebody doesn't know, she is Judith Polgár, the best female chess player ever (highest ranked 8th, and she only played vs men professionally).
@parasurv I cant fathom why the sex/gender of anyone involved or aho they played against matters. Its not like physical sports where sex infers an advantage.
@freemo@qoto.org Yeah, this is a little bit stupidity from FIDE. They also have different ranking system (women has lower level requirements for GM, IM, etc), which is just mindblowing. I am far from a social justice type of person, but this really needs to change. Especially since nobody forces women playing with men, earn ranking points, etc.
