It's the same everywhere. 90% men at least... why? because women aren't naturally predisposed to think about abstract, intangible things. some people try to blame in on nurture, say that girls don't become chessplayers, politicians, scientist etc. because of the way they are brought up but it's naive to think that. That division doesn't come from nurture, but from nature. Women are much more skilled socially then men (they say almost twice as many words per day as men), they're good at taking care of all rudimentary needs like food and cleanness (which are extremely important for health!). I'm not trying to endorse patriarchy here, but this is simply the way the evolution shaped us even if we don't want to accept it. There's one more layer to this problem: in the modern society we are taught that all human beings are equal. this isn't true, sadly. for example there are studies that show that Asian people have higher IQ on average than black people, even if they're raised in similar conditions. But given all these horrible things the humanity went through in the past like slavery and racial segregation, we simply can't afford to acknowledge such differences. we can't risk bringing these horrible ideas back to life. same with women. they fought for their right to vote and for access to education and jobs and now (gladly!) they're treated as equals with men. but that doesn't change the fact that they're still handicapped in some areas like aforementioned ability to take interest in abstract, scientific problems with no direct impact on their lives.Macieknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13118012.post-1152217717215703112013-12-17T03:46:18.122-06:002013-12-17T03:46:18.122-06:00First place looks better than second place.First place looks better than second place.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13118012.post-35034351236467838192013-12-17T02:02:22.733-06:002013-12-17T02:02:22.733-06:00These discussions will go on for ever.

But let me also say that the girls are not intimidated ( perhaps the boys feel more pressure playing a girl/woman ). Basically the players play in accordance to their ratings,try to do their best and are happy if on occasion, they draw /defeat a higher rated player. It's just that fewer women have the patience to spend all their time, focused on a game like chess. This was especially true during the pre computer era.Judith,like Anand may be a bit past their prime,but I certainly look forward to seeing the ever improving Hou Yifan for instance,post some good victories against the top 50.

Or when they play with other women in women's tournaments and produce exciting games, which they do with higher frequency than the men.Lucymariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01624951630359734276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13118012.post-36713045144698468232013-12-16T15:32:30.937-06:002013-12-16T15:32:30.937-06:00Women's job is to look good at tournaments.Women's job is to look good at tournaments.
