Whaw, she looks very good and has she made any progress and what are her biggest achievements/successes? Is she nervous about playing against boys for example?

Chess_Polimac

Hello! She is making great progress, and no, she is not nervous about playing with boys at all. When you play a game, you are competing against the pieces and your opponent's king, not the player. If you were my student, I would help you with that.

MrJean1

If possible what's her full name and from what country does she come?

Are there more beautiful pictures of her?

You're right about you're saying here but you know that there are always boys who think they can easy win against girls. Or maybe it's the other way around that a boys are distracted by her beauty? Then she has an advantage by playing against them.

The girl in the photo with me was the best for all the boys, including Kasparov.

MrJean1

Yes, Judit Polgar is considered as the best female chess player ever.

Isn't it possible to play against Dayah here so I can experience how strong she is?!

Isn't she on Chess.com?

Chess_Polimac

She is at chess com butt I have to ask her before I connect you two

MrJean1

Maybe I'm impatient but did you already had contact with her?

I personally dislike addressing any male or female terms in chess because it only announces the fact that there is any. If everybody stopped referring to female players as “female players” sexism would decrease significantly

This is such an inappropriate response. Let her be, why would anyone give out her full name to you? And asking for more pictures?? just stop

andreakarolina

This is a normal question and not inappropriate. It would be so if the question had been sex-related.

I think it's inappropriate because you want someone to give you pictures of a girl you don't know in a way that I find objectifying - as if the girl (whoever it was, I can't see the original post) was just a beautiful thing for you to look at. She is a person, with integrity. You guys have no right to just send pictures of her to one another, which is why I was put off by your comment.

SixInchSamurai

The whole thread is not about chess actually, the moderator did even remove the first comment completely due to inappropriate content there

MrJean1

The man I asked didn't give a reaction and he'll ask her if we maybe could play against each other.

Chess_Polimac

Mr Jean please be kind and remove the comments thank you in advance

MrJean1

I removed a comment and I'm looking forward if she maybe wants to play against me.
