WGM Shahade's smile might distract some of you at the board.
Don't let her get you involved in one of her chess-poker hybrid games. It won't go well. 
When I play with female players

sorry but... that shade of red is garish, and the satin lilac dress is an eyesore... i quite like fashion but... she ain't anything special, a few highland lassies view better...
Perhaps you would prefer to play Batgirl in a game of chess instead, fairytalebeast? Batgirl still will not play me, but maybe she will play you in daily chess!
I don't make any difference playing either male or female players, I just do it bad in both cases

Well half of the "girls" here are men so I think you should play the same way regardless

Looking at pryder’s new avatar picture, I’m beginning to wonder, just what her real gender is 🙀
Easily answered. There are NO women on the Internet.
You should always be careful when "playing" with females. You may end up paying child support. For more info, please google "how is babby formed? How girl get pragnent?"

I love how threads like this always seem to discuss women as otherworldly entities rather than 51% of the population of the planet on which you live.

thats why they look and act lost most of the time
honestly i have grown up around women and find the womans intuition to be almost always correct. at chess they play with a passion that men often lack, i admire theyre style of play.

I always offer men a draw when they are losing cos after all they are the weaker sex. They don't live as long, poor sweet bunnies.
Sweet bunny? 
I never was called 'sweet bunny' 
Life is unfair
hmm... i ain't Sexist, but... if female players want equality with guys... why is there even such a title as WGM? why shouldn't they just be GM? guessing here, i don't know for sure but... what rating to qualify as WGM? about 2300? well, that's Sexist against guys... why should we have to work an extra 200 points to make GM? in fact why don't females play same tournaments anyway, apart from judit Polgar of course, only reason i can think is... they ain't good enough...
Hou Yifan plays against men all the time, although she's busy at school right now. There are a lot of top female players who are involved with organizations trying to get more young girls into the game so there will be eventually more women working their way through the titled levels. Jen Shahade and all of the Polgar sisters work toward that goal, as do a lot of Russian and Chinese players. Natalia Pogonina just helped sponsor a youth tournament in NYC, and Alexandra Kosteniuk does a lot.
Until there are as many girls playing at youth levels, there's no way you'll have as many at 2000, much less 2500 and above.
