With these new rules, FIDE has managed to

  1. Imply the mental inferiority of women
  2. Validate the existence of transgender men
  3. Destroy the integrity of awards record-keeping
  4. Call transgender women men

Very nice, FIDE, incredible mental gymnastics performance! 👏 Add them to the ever lengthening sports federation shitlist.

    But you don’t understand! Clearly trans women having a different bone density gives them an unfair advantage because of, uh, something something integrity of sports.

      You see, she hasn’t been on estrogen long enough to be as emotional and illogical as cis women, giving her an advantage in such strategic and intellectual pursuits as Chess. This isn’t one of the few board games that women can compete on a level playing field with men, like Shoots and Ladders or Candyland.
