[quote=Anonymous]What this comes down to is whether the female category is created to address issues of discrimination or differences in ability due to gender. If it's discrimination, I totally understand. Create a women's series so that girls have someone to look up to. This increases their participation rates, which eventually makes chess a gender balanced competition. Some of the grandmaster comments suggest it, like Fischer who called women "weak and stupid", or Kasparov who said "Women, by their nature, are not exceptional chess players; they are not great fighters."
