Curious as to what the justification is for having gendered chess categories in the first place, because literally the only thing I can think of ultimately amounts to they believe women are innately stupid.
@stavvers There's arguably an affirmative action argument to have a women's competition to get more women involved in the game, but if outreach is the only reason why have such a fuss about trans participants?

@furby @stavvers having ever had balls makes you smarter somehow. It came to me in a dream.

(Need to emphasize that this is a joke because people are really fucking stupid online and there may be someone who genuinely has this viewpoint)
