I find it bizarre that it's 2023 and not only is chess still gender-segregated but they're doubling down on it. It makes sense for physical sports, but chess? Really?
Y'all just scared the girls are gonna wipe the board with you.
Women can earn any of the "male" titles (FM, IM, GM)
Men cannot earn the female titles (all above titles but with a "W" in front)
It's not a fear that women will win. It's actually the opposite.
There are some women who only go for the general titles, typically citing that they find the women's titles as insulting to their skill level.
FIDE rating reqs for women master titles are also lower than their male counterparts
