However, there are some interesting points of discussion with chess specifically in terms of gender. The video I've linked covers a few of them. It's worth noting that general discrepencies in the raw #s of chess players is probably the result of of culture and social structure. Aka, how many girls have older players teaching them chess while they're growing up as opposed to boys? For example, for a lot of people, the first person they played chess with was a father or grandfather. I haven't done any sort of research on this but I suspect it affects the raw # of players as well as the skill distribution among players. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZHFZOXiM9SM --- Hi ...
