    FIDE probably thinks women are dumber than men. I don’t see any other reason

      That’s basically what they said. They also claimed that women have less stamina than men, so aren’t up to the long games of chess that men play.

      Bingo, people are going to make some argument about how it’s because they do it to offer women fair opportunities but the real answer is that they think women are stupid or at the very least that men are smarter, realistically they think both.
