I searched FIDE and they have 442 842 rated males and 62 165 rated females. With that ratio there should be 6 women rated 2700+, since there are 43 such men. However, there are none.
There are more than 109 male players rated 2650+. Statistically, there should be 15 women with that rating. There are only 2.
I once got beaten up by a woman, therefore I entirely disagree with the notion that men are stronger than women, or superior physically. I used to think men were inherently better at chess, but then I lost to a woman and now realise we are equal.
Yogur, what do you understand as "evolution theory"?
If you take Judit as an example ?....well, let's just what one woman can do another can do. So, give it some time.
I don't understand you there? I'm saying that females can play chess so well that they can win the world championship. That there is nothing about our brains inherently female which make us unequipped to compete with men at the very highest levels. Therefore, in my view, I believe that only social issues, not biological issues, account for the smaller percentages of women competing for the championship presently:)
So you think the brain is a special part of the body which is unaffected by DNA and sort of designs itself or what? Like the proteins in the brain arent made by DNA and are special magical proteins that arent affected by hormones and such?
Many leading chess players have displayed brilliance outside of chess, showing that chess talent is strongly correlated to other kinds of intelligence.
Agreed.
@SmyslovFan I like your balanced approach to sex differences.
Just one thing to say GRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
Yogur, are you the halpless fool? Your style of trolling is very similar.
Some very interesting contributions. I'm glad we've got someone like trysts to put forward a woman's point of view. I would tend to agree that the issue is not so much biological (neurological differences) as societal. It would be interesting to know how often young girls are taught chess by fathers/uncles on a rainy afternoon compared to boys. I suspect girls tend to get taught the game less often because the adult wrongly assumes a girl won't be interested. And so the cycle is perpertuated.

Errrrrr... This is simply a very bad use of logic. 
There are plenty of women on this world who could beat you (and me). This doesn't mean, however, men and women are on average equally strong.
If you take Judit as an example ?....well, let's just what one woman can do another can do. So, give it some time.
Judit's time has passed. Hou Yifan is the one to watch - I'm sure she'll get over 2700 one day.

They keep reinventing themselves...I think I just found pawnhacker...

or it was sarcasm... 
The reasons why there are really noticeable differences in fields such as piloting and chess is not about neurological differences in the sexes. It is a nurture, not a nature problem. It's the exceptions which inform us of this. It's that 5% or Judit which tells us that this is a social problem.
It may be *partly* social, but ignoring neurological differences is just silly. The the proportion isn't wouldn't change from 95%-5% to 50%-50% even if society went out of its way to encourage females to become pilots.
