Chess Bitch, is written by Jennifer Shahade. She is the 2004 U.S.
Woman's Chess Champion. Her book is her complaining about the bias
against women in the world of Chess. Why is there a women's division in
Chess. Why cant they compete successfully against men in head to head
competition.


It's quite simple. Men are much stronger at chess than women EXCEPT
Judith Polgar who can more than hold her own with the best of them.
Why did Judith stop competing in women's events long ago. The women's
events for her was no challenge.



Well said!
