Men vs Women---should they play together in call competitions

Avatar of chessbooge

I believe that it sexist to separate women from men in competitions and title norms. The current system says women are inferior to men,

Perhaps the current system implies that women are superior to men? Why should they have to play chess with every goombah who knows how to shave? What sort of intellectual qualification is that?

The current system is encouraging women to participate because historically they have been discouraged from participating.

I am pre-emptively locking this thread because it is already displaying the typical sexist nonsense that gets posted every time in this exact same discussion every time it appears in the forums. Search the forums and read some of those other threads, summarise the points of view and include links and maybe it'll actually contribute something to the topic: otherwise, I am locking it.

Thanks,
