news flash: society treats trans/enbie ppl waaaay worse than white women.

I think women are smarter. While human were developing muscles over millennia, women were developing brains.

you might be right but that too is cultural. you dont even believe the stuff you are saying.

you dont think that men or women make better or worse:

-lawyers
-doctors
-professors
-scientists

now finish that train of thought: there's no genetic brain difference in regards to intelligence or "intellectual" activity. there is a human brain. it learns what you teach it. this obvious, you are being intentionally dense at worst and facile-as-fuck at best.

i guess we achieved gender equality b/c everyone in robotics club was nice

I love how there are videos of women explaining exactly what people want explaining, yet we can't be bothered to watch a video, listen to a woman, and actually learn something about this issue.

"EXCUSE ME, is there a MAN that can explain this argument about women in chess? Because I THINK that if they were really equal they'd be proving it!"

like, are u fucking kidding me.

anyway, reading more about the descision today:

Trans Men will also have their (previous, Womens) titles stripped... but this is inconsistent with FIDE's other reasoning. If there is a cognitive difference, then FTM should be allowed in the women's division.

FIDE has an explicit statement that if someone FTM detransitions to a woman they can have their titles back.

Note that there was a case of a guy pretending to be a woman, in full hijab, at a tournament recently. But this fails, on the surface, to acknowledge the obvious truth: the women he was competing against were purposely kept uneducated and hype-controlled by that society. It's not like those women ever had a chess coach in their lives, much less allowed to leave the house to go to the chess club, use a computer, or w/e else.

But FIDE shows that it just literally thinks women are cognitively weaker than men. There is no reason trans women would even be banned from women's divisions.

Note also, no one would object to having to get the stamp of approval by a psychologist to make sure you were trolling. Plenty of sports have governing bodies, etc. It's the old boogeyman of the angry white guy throwing on a blonde wig, claiming he's "trans" and just being an asshole to everyone and everything. IDK what it would look like, but it's fucking obvious if someone is serious or trolling about being trans. Literally one of the most obvious things in the world, so we don't have to overthink it. You need a doctor's note, ok fine, no one even cares.

Also, I said earlier there was a guy who tried to compete in the women's division, but, IMPORTANTLY, he wasn't claiming to be trans or anything. He was just disguised as a woman, in a full hijab, and he refused to speak to anyone, which, apparently, is culturally acceptable jesus fucking christ anyway moving on so they thought he was a "meek & traditional" woman...

when they Scooby-Doo'd him (yes they did, that's what happened) he apologized and admitted he was doing it for the money. and he was.

Nevertheless, that's where I see this FIDE resolution coming from, coupled with the general transpanic of the last few years, which is a global, not just american, phenomenon.

Go compete in the Swedish womens chess league and get eviscerated. Even an American women's chess league is going to be so far beyond anyone on this board's skill level. Any country that educates both genders will produce better professional women players.

Let's put a few things in perspective also:

....the amount of work it takes to become an "FM" or "IM" is equivalent to earning a PhD by the time you are....14 at the oldest...

superGMs led insane lives that most peoples parents would not be able to handle or even approve of. inhuman even.

it's only people who have be trained their entire lives that can compete at that level. they have something like 50,000 hours of practice by the time they are 12. Where the fuck are you going to find 50,000 hours? You wont, you are an adult and have to make money.

kids have enormous free time, and it's that early training that makes the potential for a champion.

because also, you cant force someone to like, play, or be good at chess. you can't make your kid into a chess champion 100% of the time; they have to also love the game. And it takes a kind of obsessively single-minded determination coupled with a strong desire for competition that will make a strong chess master. they are lions and sharks. they are sheer forces of will and determination that go beyond would most people do. and they play more games in a day than most people play in a lifetime.

most of the time we train girls to be "nicer" than that, but we reward it, sometimes, in boys.

Q: what does every chess master have in common?
A: chess parent (or chess uncle)

Q: is the child of a chess player biologically predisposed to chess?
A: not at all

Q: Okay why then?
A: Only a chess-playing parent will be willing to deal with all the tournament travel bullshit, fees, coaches, formal training, books, hotel rooms, etc. They understand that you can't do this in moderation: you really need to attack it if that's your plan. Most "normal" parents have about as much patience as driving to 1 chess tournament 1 time. O, you didn't win? Oh well we're done with chess. Who cares, it's just a game. What about cheerleading?

Not every child of a chess player is good or likes chess. With rare exceptions, only a parent who is also a chess player will be able to provide the support needed to train a modern chess grandmaster.

Magnus will tell you: he's not a genius. The reason he's so good at chess is because he practiced way more than anyone else. Like a kid obsessed with Minecraft or Terraria, he got obsessed with chess from age 6-12 and did chess 18 hours a day for 6 years, basically. That's like 40,000 hours.

A desk job in America works 2000 hours a year, for comparison.

He fit the experiences of 20 years into 6 and did it as a kid, when he had the free time and parents that let him be a weirdo.

And he's playing 100s of games a day now. You can't catch up to that by studying 1 hour of chess in your free time.

Everyone that plays chess is getting better all the time. A 700-elo player these days is a strong player. They've studied the game. 20 years ago a 700 barely new the rules and a 1300 was a "strong" player.

The stakes are always rising, everyone sprinting ahead, attempting to leave their competition in the dust.

a burro is a donkey

A "burro" is a neighborhood in a big city, was that what Woody was asking about?

It was to be a "hard to see" move, not just a reaction to the previous move. Like, a queen attacks your King. You have 1 move, but it's the only move. It wont be Brilliant.

premise:
-you are 18 years old and it is 1980
-it's a dating sim but you also unlock arcade games

-balance work, life, and jobs to make enough money to become a world champion arcade player and also romance the gender of your choosing
-tons of queer options
-really awesome, new, arcade games in the style of 1981-1982
-titties, ass, and feet

-the local arcade is a metaphor for how well you are doing in your sex life. High scores at the arcade unlock sex options. Sexy time unlocks more arcade games.
-can be either gender and can be gay/straight/bi
-can also be asexual, super-devoted to the games and fast-track that
-can also be hypersexual, don't play the arcades, just do the social stuff

-use LLM (ChatGPT-level) AI for the NPC/dating partners; they really interact and get super-horny if you are. if you are vanilla thats what they are too.

-high score leaderboards

-a "virtual arcade" where you would walk around, meet ppl, meet other players, see all the games you unlocked, etc. it would function as the main menu.

-ok im getting really drunk no more

i have the feet pics from that photoshoot they are NSFW tho sorry

And slightly off topic but just look at the embarrasing hissy bitchfit Magnus Carlsen threw when 19 year old Hans Niemann kicked his ass.

A temper tantrum that Niemann cheated because "He couldn't lose to a 19 year old" followed by forefiting the rematch in protest (Likely because he knew full well he'd lose again)

If a guy with that fragile of an ego flips out because he lost to a young man, imagine what he and his peers act like towards young women.

Now remember 99.9% of these encounters are not filmed, have little or no audience and the people involved are not famous.

why imagine? just listen to what the professional women chess players have to say. it's one of the videos i linked.

Not smarter persay but men are able to reach the logical part of the brain easier while women are better at reaching creativity

100% bullshit

[LFAQs-redacted-quote]


i think there is a typo here?

as bad as guys are toward women, they are ultra-fucking-worse to trans women.

maybe this is coming from TERF nonsense within the chess-playing world. it's international and a lot of the tournaments are in the middle east.

i don't think there is, pay attention, literally ONE "out" queer professional chess player in all of history. that's insane.

It's gotta be the highbrow version of an COD lobby on Xbox live

He threw a fit, but... you are ignoring the important part here. Hans is literally a total fucking cheater. He cheated like a motherfucker, online, a lot. Maybe Magnus was wrong about that one instance, but put yourself in his position. You play against a guy who cheats and you know it... it's a lesson to learn about accusing people without hard proof in a public setting.

Chess makes people go insane though. Hans is a kid, I look forward to his career and hope he can come back, come clean about how much he cheated, and start over.

idk I lost interest in the case because they'll probably settle after the lawyers pay themselves, i dont even care.

Magnus knows that younger players are strong too, it's not like he thinks a 19yo couldnt beat him. He was getting beaten by Pragg, a 17 year old, at the time, Indian player who is fucking amazing. he doesnt accuse Pragg of cheating.

in reality i think a few things happened:

1. hans "sharked" magnus by playing like shit in casual "hang-out" session
2. hans also cheated a bunch online, and Magnus knew this
3. hans did NOT know that Magnus knew, Magnus only knew b/c of a business deal with chess.com, and chess.com 70-page document is about as convincing as the recent dt indictments, which is to say: clearly written, easy to understand, and utterly, utterly damning. i mean they released Hans' emails with them, so... it's bad.
4. anyway, maybe hans even knew that magnus knew; doesn't matter. hans played well, magnus psyched himself out and played like shit.
5. magnus called hans out, but hans wasn't cheating...not that day.

it's a crazy drama anyway you look at it.

she releases bonus tracks and extended editions of songs too.

"All Too Well" was basically the best song on Red and it was like 4:00, her extended edition is 10:00 and I can't imagine listening to the short version.

unreleased tracks have been fire, from the same time as the album. one of the bonus tracks that was just released is one of her best songs even...

so... really looking forward to this album!

Dai suke desu!~~

literally the two best chess players who have ever lived, plus all the women of chess agree with what im saying, but you are right it's probably some huge conspiracy where everyone who plays chess is actually wrong and your gut instinct is right

Tig? sick burn? real cogent shit your refutation.

even your "insult" sounds like something an incel chud would say; you can't attack the content so "sit down and shut up" just like what women should do, right? big bad tig is talking.

..are you really this ignorant that you don't even know men and womens gymnastics are completely different?

are you gonna pretend to be so oblivious to the obvious fact that society says it is much more acceptable for a woman to be a gymnast than a man.

everyone know Simone Biles.

literally no one knows a single male gymnast.

also, obviously trans women should be able to play in the women's events.

also there aren't divisions, people misunderstand:

almost everyone plays in the "open" categories

women, additionally, can play in women's-only events.

it's important to note, there are fucking shittons of chess events all the time, all over the world

the women's league is more of a side-thing because the international governing body (FIDE) wants to actively encourage women to play chess.

WHEN we have achieved gender equality THEN the WOMEN of chess can decide to get rid of their women's league.

everyone else: literally stop acting like you suddenly give a shit about women's chess.

DKBananaSlamma posted...

Why is there male and female categories of Chess ?

tl;dr to encourage women to play

why? society treats women chess players like absolute shit, and encourages competition in children in a highly gendered way. why are the best gymnasts women? we reward that in a girl and punish a boy, even through microaggressions, for the same thing.

chess was historically HIGHLY GENDERED, women were assaulted, excluded, mocked and harassed in chess clubs for 100+ years

so, yes, NOW,

that's why we have the women's league.
