I've had more than one game of chess against formidable female opponents on this site.
Are there any girls who play chess?..

I like the alliteration. Maybe formidable female foes would have even been better?
I once played a young teenage girl at a chess tournament. I thought it would be easy because she was wearing some makeup and figured she can't possibly spend much time studying chess. So I decided to toy with her a bit and make her sit at the board and think hard about her moves. However after about one hour of play she got the upper hand on me because I was throwing her tactical tricks and hoping she would fall for one of them, but she cleverly avoided my traps and then counter attacked me while slowly gaining an advantage. It was embarrassing. I finally gave up with a gracious handshake knowing that I could beat her easily under normal conditions, but that she had used female mind games to deceive me.

Well the question wasn't about who is better men or women ,I just wondered if there are few or many women who play chess here.

Does the OP understand that having more than one account is against the rules?
No, It's actually a defining property of females. All females don't play chess. So if a "female" is playing chess assume that they are an uberfemale. Also, it's important to note females don't poo as well.

@krudsparov, when I said "majority" it means not all. I highly doubt that 10% of all chess players either worldwide or here at chess.com are female.
@isabela14 You stated, "While the majority of commenters are male, obviously, they state their brains are far superior than their counterparts" I merely pointed out that most of the male majority don't think that way, ( or at least I would hope not ) as for the 10%, that was an estimate on a chess website.

Oi mate shut up will ya
I notice the OP never made a second posting. That leads me to consider him an annoying troll (as opposed to an entertaining troll, I suppose), looking simply to incite incendiary responses to his otherwise blandly insipid thread.
