There is no drawback, only good

idk, it sort of enforces the idea that men are better than women at chess, and women can't compete equally with men, which is untrue.

The women's league exists for those that find the general league too intimidating or difficult to get into right off the bat and to encourage young girls and women that are interested.

the "leagues" should be divided based on skill or experience, things relevant to the performance of the game. not arbitrary things like gender.

I hope something good happens to you today
