Women and chess usually do not mix, I think that they prefer a marguarita.

There are exceptions and if you are lucky, she might like it.

Men are the same, we do not like shopping for cosmetics, but if the demo application is outstanding, we love the outcome.


 I dont know any men who like shopping unless they are shopping for guns or fishin tackle or a new car..... I have never been able to tolerate shopping with a female because the way they shop and men shop is so completely different ! I know the gals feel much the same about shopping with males..... Wink

I like shopping alone.  No women or men.  I wonder what that says.

Love conquers all... except a really high rating (and the Blackmar-Diemer Gambit).

i always find that its best to keep the lady away from the chess board as she doesnt play the game and attempts to distract by pinching the king or kang as she calls it. personally i think it should be classed as abuse. lol

Hmmm, I really think there are a lot of us women chess players who don't chat a lot with you fellows. We love chess! My sister-in- law and I play every time the family gets together for a holiday dinner--we are totally cut throat and the husbands & kids go off somewhere bored!

But just for the record--my husband was much better than me at first--he learned to play while he was in the "joint." Now I can beat him!

I also have experienced many many boys who have no interest in chess.

In my experience boyfriends do not mix with chess, either cannot play, or barely know how to, and certainly showed no interest or talent in that direction...despite my efforts with teaching them. Tongue out

i wasnt saying that women shouldnt play chess, just that my woman doesnt, and that shes a theif. lol

If you can get them started they may well get hooked.

My wife doesn't play chess. She even doesn't intend to play chess. And she is a complete analphabeth in chess... + she don't like to play the game. But she is a wonderful pianist and organist, which I am not. Therefor I have chess.com, my chessclub and chessmates and she has the piano, the orgue and fans. Cool

Once I saw a guy that often went to the chess club with girlfriend.

She did not play chess, he played and she waited. I thought: what

is a love ! How she has patience to wait him for hours !

Unfortunately, in my life I did not met such girls.
