Maybe the fact that there is a separate woman's chess league is contributing to that. Chess is intellectual. MEN ARE NOT SMARTER THAN WOMAN. A woman has to work ten times harder to get recognition than a guy.
There are two chess "leagues." One lets anyone play, the other only lets women play. In other words men aren't discriminating against women. Women can play in any tournament and earn any title. It's the men who are limited in what competition they can face and what titles they can earn.
