He literally said it's less women to begin with, and then the women that are there don't find it worth it because of the negative social consequences balanced against the extremely low chance of monetary compensation. And the fact that there's less people in the first place actually decreases the proportion of the number of people that take that decision. So the two reasons compound on each other not just add together. Seems pretty explanatory ngl tbh.
Like men aren't concerned with monetary compensation at all, i would make a case that chess doesn't even attract the best cream of the crop of intelligence from men as men who actually are more intelligent and other attributes which a person requires at chess would certainly choose a different career path such as investment banking, business or programming. Chess doesn't have the best minds from men but will certainly represent the best minds from women
I recently played in the Vienna championship (im rated around 1200 fide) and played against higher rated players and FMs and ultimately was the only girl in Top50 . what matters is that i won a cup lmao
I'm very proud to say, that my country's - Lithuania's Parlament Speaker - Viktorija Čmilyte-Nielsen is a grandmaster. She even received a lot of encouragment to become FIDE president in 2018. But she denied the offers since she stopped playing competitively and turned to politics in 2015, which in my opinion makes a lot of sense, since that kind of rational and logical thinking you gain from chess is very useful in politics. She also wrote an autobiography "Between Black and White" in 2018, in which she talks about her experience. Chess community is harsh on women, and you constantly have to prove yourself to other's no matter how much you achieve. That's why there aren't a lot of women in the chess field. But I think times are changing, and I hope we see a lot more women chess players competing at the top.
i am girl i started learn chess before months i am good i always play with AI rate 3000 i don't win but also don't lose fast i don't play with humans because i get nervous When my game fully improves, I will show myself to the world But now I will only lose if I played with someone, so there is no need to lose.

I wonder about the extent to which "the obsession factor" of boys plays into it. How many hours per day do young male players practice? Some boys tend to isolate themselves and spend longer playing alone and doing solo activities (or at least almost alone). Young males could spend all day obsessing over a video game, playing alone with legos, or playing chess without connecting with another person. If that results in even 30 minutes more per day of practicing chess (vs. doing more social activities and building relationships), that would make a difference in their ELO scores over the long run. I can't back anything I'm saying up with statistics. I'm just going by what I've observed as a father among young males' "ability" to completely obsess for 6+ hours straight on a game. Either way, we should obviously not discourage female players. Heckling them in person or online is disgusting. If somebody wants to play chess, we should encourage them.
Have you ever thought that perhaps girls are given fewer chances to immerse in their obsessions, or perhaps their obsession are being overlooked because the girls or the subjects of their interest do not fall into the stereotypical categories of "talented" or "genius" child? (Or, nobody ever bought them Legos because they thought Legos are just for boys 😢)
As a girl who plays video games and is very introverted, I can tell you that this “obsession factor”is definitely present in girls as well. I can easily spend over 100 hours a week playing a video game that I'm obsessed with without interacting with other people.
As a girl I can paint for 10+hours a day even though my career isn't towards painting it's funny how you assume that there is no "obsession factor" in women
What you're saying reminds me alot of adhd, men are usually diagnosed earlier because they present more stereotypically (hyperactive) v women who present inattentive. This isn't biological. This is because being hyperactive, your hyperfixations are looked down upon, socially speaking women aren't *allowed* to have this "obsession factor" because it's considered masculine.
I loved playing chess as a child and was good for my age. I was tought how to play by my grandmother. But I stopped playing at 19 due to the increased sexisum I expected. also when I move away from my home town for university I did not feel like going through proveing my self as a chess player to mostly men that would take one look at me and assume that I bad a chess because I am women. I keep thinking about taking chess back up but never do because I am allways made to feel unwelcome and finding a women's only chess club is hard.
Jesus christ, literally nothing you said has anything to do with why you quit playing chess. If you like playing chess, you play chess. Sexism? HAHAHA give me a break, come up with a better excuse. I didn't realize some people being sexist, throwing insults, or being mean could somehow physically force you not to play. At the end of the day, the only person that stopped you from playing and getting better was yourself.

@ceseak1571 Sorry to hear about your experiences, but can I encourage you not to give up? My last competitive match was in 2005 and I got back into it almost by accident last year. I was teaching (Maths) during the Easter break, came here and noticed the World Championship match between Ding Liren and Ian Nepomniachtchi was taking place. I started watching it during my breaks in teaching, but it was the infectious and enthusiastic commentary of Tania Sachdev that sparked something. This year, after watching the Freestyle Chess G.O.A.T. Challenge, I decided to revamp all my openings and defences right from move 1. It's going to be a long process, but there's no rush. I haven't joined a club, but enjoy watching some tournament live where the commentators in the studio are explaining each move and analysing variations. I think that one of the advantages now, compared to when I last played is that there is the opportunity to play online. It may not match the social aspect of a club and over the board matches, but it may be a route you may wish to consider, if you're not already doing it. The many videos from the various streamers and professionals are extremely helpful and will sustain motivation and interest. Good luck!!
It's not. @@Ameliahorn6582 clearly just makes ignorant assumptions and knows nothing of chess. There are women's only tournaments and women's only titles. If a woman wants to compete in open tournaments they can and often do. If a woman wants to become a Grandmaster, they can. If a man wants to compete in a womens only tournament they cannot nor do they get to become a grandmaster with a lower rating (WGM). Unless Eli is saying that chess is sexists against men, Eli doesn't know what they are talking about. Most tournaments and games in chess make no distinction of sex: men and women play against each other all the time. Women's title / tournaments are like regional tournaments in a sense i.e. in the case of the US Regional Tournament: if you live in the US you can compete for the US title and be the US Chess champion. Same for women's world championship (if you're a woman). Just because you compete for the US or Woman's championship doesn't mean you're not allowed to compete for the World Championship. Everyone just wants everything to be sexist these days when the world is by far the least sexist it's ever been.
Create safe place for women they say. And it's not man and women category, it's all gender and women. Women can play against man in open game. Correct me if i'm wrong.
@@Nadia-yj5iy correct. Only limitation is men cannot play if women only. Also there are national, regional and age restricted tournaments (like most other competitive games / sports). There are no men only tournaments. There are under X age tournaments but nothing stops a 10 year old from completing in open tournaments they just might not be as competitive as an age restricted tournament
Obviously they don't literally mean that most children are 500-600 since these ratings can easily be overcome, just a metaphor of how weak or how strong they are in chess
I think this is meant to be the ELO right from the start. To beat a 600 when you play the very first time as, let's say a 5 year old is pretty impressive to me
Take the Indian GM sibling duo of Pragg and Vaishali. Both of them got the same exposure, in fact, Pragg learnt chess seeing his older sister play at home. Both of them went to the same coach, to the same set of tournaments and were given equal access to all amenities by their parents and coaches.. Yet Pragg managed to hit 2750 and is currently one of the top players of the world, and considered a potential future world champion, but Vaishali is still languishing at 2500 rating. Just cannot understand this mystery of women hitting the ceiling at 2500s whereas sizable number of men go on to cross 2700.
Chess, at its highest competitive level, is a mind game. If you believe you're better than your opponent and make all the right moves with no pressure, you win. Magnus Carlson always wins because nobody thinks they can beat him, so no one does.
@@2Complex2 +++ They can cope but there is a reason why men are better at any fking thing. Even the top 100 cooks are all men, how can they keep lying to themselves this much. How can someone be so stupid?
I do believe women can do better in chess. I a 21 year old teenager but i have seen many girls who has got more potential than many of the boys. If they tried more harder many of them can become grandmaster and compete with World's top 10 players.

@@Niganigaballsackboii I mean, even a woman is good enough to achieve more than 2882... or can start from 2700 It doesn't take many good female chess players to achieve that goal. And this is not my opinion I am just reacting to this video. That in this video he is saying that mangas are a product of high potential. My opinion is that... there is something genetically lacking in the female brain.
The quote at the end of your video applies to basically all artists. There are still plenty of artists, though. It comes down to whether you have a passion to play, because there are no guarantees hard work will translate to ELO gains anyway, especially at the master level.
I want to preface that this video's math is skewed and misleading. The probability of a child being a prodigy actually has a very low correlation coefficient with the sample size, albeit that is surprising. A logical consideration, and perhaps the most obvious one that people tend to ignore in fear of "sexism", is that chess, at the very high level, is iq driven as per the needed intuition. It is a well known fact that, whether it be biologically or socially evolutionary, men have a higher standard deviation on the iq bell curve, and as such are more likely to produce better players for a game like chess. It is also why, taking a median against girls and boys, girls will beat boys in chess.
A second thing to say that this is not necessarily the concrete answer to why women are performing worse than men, mainly because that question implies that men, on average, are better than women. This is false. It is equivalent to why men will dominate the elite rich and scientific profiles in the world, simply because there is a higher probability that our current capitalist system favours higher iq individuals, whether you deem that right or wrong.
@@Princess_Blue380An average male players are stronger than average female players in Chess. Similarly, average male GMs outperform their female counterparts.
Let me get this clear, There are no men only chess tournaments but there are many women only tornaments. Men have the only one option which is to join in open tornament( men and women). Still men dominated the open tornament . So that goes to show that men are just better at chess. It's the reality
Perhaps one way to address this question is to look at areas where it isn’t a problem and see if anything can be learnt? For example, does anyone ask if female pianists can be as good as male pianists? Why not? One can come on here and search for Maratha Argerich or Yuja Wang and watch them taking down the big piano concertos as well as any of their male counterparts. So, is there something happening in the world of classical music that is not happening in the world of chess, and if so, what? One observation I note is that there is no difference in the way that musicians are taught, or the expectations at each level. Chess is not a physical endeavour, so perhaps right from the start, more could be done to present the game as a gender-neutral activity and all the way through, ensure equal opportunity for either gender. It would be also interesting to hear from the top modern players on this question too. In India, there has been an explosion in chess for both genders, but there is still a gap in rankings between the top male players and the top female ones. Why?
My theory is that cuz they are sexist, the culture teaches them to be sexist and they let that hold them back, I wud classify myself as being somewhat misogynistic, yet one of my idols is Marie Curie, I watch GM Irina's content religiously We should gather knowledge from whatever source we can get it
Do you know what it's like to be the only one of something in a field? If you're the only girl at your chess school, the only girl at chess tournaments, and have endured a lifetime of people making belittling or dismissive comments, sexual harassment, and more, it is natural to wonder if other girls have made it far and what their experience is like. She can't be inspired by Hikaru or Magnus because people will not treat her like Hikaru or Magnus simply because of her gender

I am trying to create content just like you, but something that I find very difficoult is finding the right but also free music and the stock footage. How do you find that?
If you are just starting a new channel and really don't have much experience I really advise you to not purchase anything for stock footage or music. Use RUclips videos for stock footage and make sure to use non copyrighted music or just music from the RUclips library. It will definitely be a bit riskier on copyright claims but you won't waste 300$+. After your channel gets monetization, I suggest you research well what works for your videos regarding stock footage websites. And for the music just look into epidemic sound. Hope that helps, and best of luck!
This was a reply to someone else but it applies to many more. Especially in this comment section for instance. Ok thanks Mr. Scientist. I bet you actually looked at some quantitative rigorous evidence for "compititiveness", analysed by appropriate people for manipulation and checked the methodology. Suuure. Or is it just that it "sounds" intuitiuve and like "common sense", but also logical and scientific sounding right.

Interesting arguments. So what is the proportion of women among top chess players? I would guess 1 in 160, or less. So all the arguments you made would result in a 1 to 10 attrition in the woman chess player population, as they move up the ladder. I find it too high, not completely explained by this video. I think the main reason for many more male top chess players is the tendency for higher risk taking (to be positive), or the tendency for single-mindedness (to be negative), among men than among women.
Did you not finish the video? He then goes on to attribute the significantly lower proportion to the fact that there is negative pressure against women competing in chess at a young age all the way through to adulthood.
@@tomasmcilroy7032 There's also the fact that, Psychologically Males are more competitive. So it'd make sense the top X% in an industry/game is dominated by competitive personalities. No negative pressures of x-society needed. Also, there are plenty of industries/games that pay more than chess. Literally better off in there than to waste time in chess. I play chess cuz of "preserving the mind" and calorie reasons (heard a chess match can burn calories passively. Although it's probably concentrated on high-level chess which I'm not) If people actually took more factors into account, blaming society for the lack of females in X area goes down to near zero (usually)

What are you talking about with the "you need 60 million for a guaranteed success"? That's like saying the chance of flipping a coin on heads is 1 in 2, so you're guaranteed to get heads if you flip twice. Also going from 605 million to 37 million you're arguing there's only half the chance to get a prodigy? Half the chance of what? At 37 million, there's about a 57% chance to have at least 1 prodigy female player, but that doesn't mean anything other than the expected number of women prodigy compared to prodigies in general is about 1/20. You're also comparing everyone to just women. Of those 10 prodigies, the likelihood based on statistics is pretty good that one is a woman. Therein lies the problem with statistics though. The expectation is about 1/16 top players are women. Reality is more like 1/100. I don't think there's data to suggest this difference is driven by mistreatment of women in chess, that's merely an assertion. As for the women seeing the low expected pay, is the assertion there that women are smarter than men when it comes to making career decisions? Otherwise, men face that same reality of only the top few making anything and would surely come to the same conclusion. There's a lot of plausible explanations for why women aren't matching statistical expectations, but I think it's a disservice to just throw our hands up and say: well I guess society is sexist. For example, it could be that men experience greater variance as a group than women, meaning that at both the top and bottom they'd appear disproportionately relative to women. That's not to say sexism isn't real, but I don't think we have any reason to believe sexism is the only, or even the biggest, factor.
Some man want to look superior in chess by turning people off from chess, end up people not giving them any value because people not considered chess is a thing (cause they turn off).
The Problem with Women's chess is that in classical championships is that women play a best of 3, whilst men play a best of 7. The chess rating system is +200elo/ number of games. This means when a man plays 3 championship games, they played 21 games, meanwhile women play 9 games, thats why women are ranked lower in classical chess.
@@samsaxena6659 ....... Wait wtf , dude its more complcating than that. Believe me I've tried to calculate elo like that. But it doesn't work The only way you could come to that assumption. Is if you calculate every single opponent and their rating all the way they are now. Also women player can be more active than men sometimes. Like there's not like a limit of 30. BTW they don't play bo7 in the WC. Get your facts right.
Women can play in the open category, together with men in the same tournaments as them. Women's tournaments have lower points and therefore it is easier to win women's categories and titles, but women can still earn points and men's titles by playing joint tournaments with them.
There shouldn't be any gender separation in chess. I am trying to think of another purely intellectual competitive pursuit that is separated like this. It sends the wrong message. An absolutely horrendous message, actually. And this video makes zero sense. If there are 605 million chess players or whatever number, a woman still has the same odds as a man of making money. In fact, because of the existence of female-only competitions, her odds are much better. Its kind of extraordinary that this video uses blatantly false logic to reach a conclusion. Your audience is chess players, who will see the error easily.

Like so often, this video assumes the results before diving deeply into the analysis. And the real question isn't even asked: Is it perhaps that statistically men are better in chess because of biological reasons? Men are better in solving spatial tasks. And you don't even mention this? Because you know beforehand that it must be the evil society/education.

1. Learn english. 2. Where do you live? Because often depending on the country, girls and boys are introduced to academic intelligence and differently, leading to higher success rates in schools for boys, but not at all because they're "smarter" in any way. 3.

this video has so many factors not considered and is relating to such irrelevant things... all you did was basically claim that the starting point of a child in chess determines their talent level, which is frankly comical, and proceeded to say that 1 in 60000 chess players is a magnus carlsen, garry kasparov or bobby fischer, and that there are 10 of these, which is nonsense, if you are putting bobby sixcher kasparov and carlsen in the same pool, you cant take 605 million or whatever number it is of chess players CURRENTLY, but you need to take ALL CHESS PLAYERS EVER, because these players arent from the same era. And if you do all that, all you basically are saying is why there isnt a female magnus carlsen, which has nothing to do with the fact that basically everywhere you look the general rating gap between male chess players and female ones is enormous, and if what you said was relevant, and women should have half the chance, then it should mean that for every 32 males in a certain rating category, there should be 1 female as well (according to your data of 1 - 16 ratio and 1/2 the chance with the number of players) - THAT would prove your point.

I wonder about the extent to which "the obsession factor" of boys plays into it. How many hours per day do young male players practice? Some boys tend to isolate themselves and spend longer playing alone and doing solo activities (or at least almost alone). Young males could spend all day obsessing over a video game, playing alone with legos, or playing chess without connecting with another person. If that results in even 30 minutes more per day of practicing chess (vs. doing more social activities and building relationships), that would make a difference in their ELO scores over the long run. I can't back anything I'm saying up with statistics. I'm just going by what I've observed as a father among young males' "ability" to completely obsess for 6+ hours straight on a game.
Either way, we should obviously not discourage female players. Heckling them in person or online is disgusting. If somebody wants to play chess, we should encourage them.
Have you ever thought that perhaps girls are given fewer chances to immerse in their obsessions, or perhaps their obsession are being overlooked because the girls or the subjects of their interest do not fall into the stereotypical categories of "talented" or "genius" child? (Or, nobody ever bought them Legos because they thought Legos are just for boys 😢)
@@lidu6363I know right my mom says that chess is for boys.People should just let other people chose their own path.
As a girl who plays video games and is very introverted, I can tell you that this “obsession factor”is definitely present in girls as well. I can easily spend over 100 hours a week playing a video game that I'm obsessed with without interacting with other people.
As a girl I can paint for 10+hours a day even though my career isn't towards painting it's funny how you assume that there is no "obsession factor" in women
What you're saying reminds me alot of adhd, men are usually diagnosed earlier because they present more stereotypically (hyperactive) v women who present inattentive. This isn't biological. This is because being hyperactive, your hyperfixations are looked down upon, socially speaking women aren't *allowed* to have this "obsession factor" because it's considered masculine.
Lesson: men don't need money. Hence, they excel in chess. Good deduction.

I loved playing chess as a child and was good for my age. I was tought how to play by my grandmother. But I stopped playing at 19 due to the increased sexisum I expected. also when I move away from my home town for university I did not feel like going through proveing my self as a chess player to mostly men that would take one look at me and assume that I bad a chess because I am women.
I keep thinking about taking chess back up but never do because I am allways made to feel unwelcome and finding a women's only chess club is hard.
Jesus christ, literally nothing you said has anything to do with why you quit playing chess. If you like playing chess, you play chess. Sexism? HAHAHA give me a break, come up with a better excuse.

@ceseak1571 Sorry to hear about your experiences, but can I encourage you not to give up? My last competitive match was in 2005 and I got back into it almost by accident last year. I was teaching (Maths) during the Easter break, came here and noticed the World Championship match between Ding Liren and Ian Nepomniachtchi was taking place. I started watching it during my breaks in teaching, but it was the infectious and enthusiastic commentary of Tania Sachdev that sparked something.
This year, after watching the Freestyle Chess G.O.A.T. Challenge, I decided to revamp all my openings and defences right from move 1. It's going to be a long process, but there's no rush. I haven't joined a club, but enjoy watching some tournament live where the commentators in the studio are explaining each move and analysing variations.
I think that one of the advantages now, compared to when I last played is that there is the opportunity to play online. It may not match the social aspect of a club and over the board matches, but it may be a route you may wish to consider, if you're not already doing it. The many videos from the various streamers and professionals are extremely helpful and will sustain motivation and interest.
Good luck!!
Why is chess even divided into men and women catagory
Sexism
It's not. @@Ameliahorn6582 clearly just makes ignorant assumptions and knows nothing of chess.
There are women's only tournaments and women's only titles. If a woman wants to compete in open tournaments they can and often do. If a woman wants to become a Grandmaster, they can. If a man wants to compete in a womens only tournament they cannot nor do they get to become a grandmaster with a lower rating (WGM).
Unless Eli is saying that chess is sexists against men, Eli doesn't know what they are talking about.
Most tournaments and games in chess make no distinction of sex: men and women play against each other all the time. Women's title / tournaments are like regional tournaments in a sense i.e. in the case of the US Regional Tournament: if you live in the US you can compete for the US title and be the US Chess champion. Same for women's world championship (if you're a woman). Just because you compete for the US or Woman's championship doesn't mean you're not allowed to compete for the World Championship.

The quote at the end of your video applies to basically all artists. There are still plenty of artists, though. It comes down to whether you have a passion to play, because there are no guarantees hard work will translate to ELO gains anyway, especially at the master level.
Applies to all "breadless arts". Obviously.
I want to preface that this video's math is skewed and misleading. The probability of a child being a prodigy actually has a very low correlation coefficient with the sample size, albeit that is surprising. A logical consideration, and perhaps the most obvious one that people tend to ignore in fear of "sexism", is that chess, at the very high level, is iq driven as per the needed intuition. It is a well known fact that, whether it be biologically or socially evolutionary, men have a higher standard deviation on the iq bell curve, and as such are more likely to produce better players for a game like chess. It is also why, taking a median against girls and boys, girls will beat boys in chess.
A second thing to say that this is not necessarily the concrete answer to why women are performing worse than men, mainly because that question implies that men, on average, are better than women. This is false. It is equivalent to why men will dominate the elite rich and scientific profiles in the world, simply because there is a higher probability that our current capitalist system favours higher iq individuals, whether you deem that right or wrong.
Men have a higher standard deviation and a higher average. Many, many more male geniuses than female.

@@Hayden_Catmaybe you wrong, many old man still do this hating stuff 😂
Let me get this clear,
There are no men only chess tournaments but there are many women only tornaments. Men have the only one option which is to join in open tornament( men and women).
Still men dominated the open tornament . So that goes to show that men are just better at chess. It's the reality
Perhaps one way to address this question is to look at areas where it isn’t a problem and see if anything can be learnt?
For example, does anyone ask if female pianists can be as good as male pianists? Why not? One can come on here and search for Maratha Argerich or Yuja Wang and watch them taking down the big piano concertos as well as any of their male counterparts. So, is there something happening in the world of classical music that is not happening in the world of chess, and if so, what?
One observation I note is that there is no difference in the way that musicians are taught, or the expectations at each level. Chess is not a physical endeavour, so perhaps right from the start, more could be done to present the game as a gender-neutral activity and all the way through, ensure equal opportunity for either gender.
It would be also interesting to hear from the top modern players on this question too. In India, there has been an explosion in chess for both genders, but there is still a gap in rankings between the top male players and the top female ones. Why?
@5:03 why do girls only search female GM instead of GM in general?

My theory is that cuz they are sexist, the culture teaches them to be sexist and they let that hold them back,

But just considering the ratio this must be 16 in top 100
There is a hell lot of difference between 0 and 16
Yes on average men and women play chess equally as in other fields of study but when it comes to elite chess(or any other similar option ) men drastically dominate females and this has to do with genes too rather than just interests
Overall there should be no discrimination in chess but I see no point of preferential treatment of women in terms of funding
Positive discrimination (whatever that means) is still discrimination
I think most funds should be directed at best players in open chess(men or women) and especially chess prodigies like nodirbek gukesh and definitely alireza

Interesting arguments. So what is the proportion of women among top chess players? I would guess 1 in 160, or less. So all the arguments you made would result in a 1 to 10 attrition in the woman chess player population, as they move up the ladder. I find it too high, not completely explained by this video. I think the main reason for many more male top chess players is the tendency for higher risk taking (to be positive), or the tendency for single-mindedness (to be negative), among men than among women.
Did you not finish the video? He then goes on to attribute the significantly lower proportion to the fact that there is negative pressure against women competing in chess at a young age all the way through to adulthood.

What are you talking about with the "you need 60 million for a guaranteed success"? That's like saying the chance of flipping a coin on heads is 1 in 2, so you're guaranteed to get heads if you flip twice. Also going from 605 million to 37 million you're arguing there's only half the chance to get a prodigy? Half the chance of what? At 37 million, there's about a 57% chance to have at least 1 prodigy female player, but that doesn't mean anything other than the expected number of women prodigy compared to prodigies in general is about 1/20. You're also comparing everyone to just women. Of those 10 prodigies, the likelihood based on statistics is pretty good that one is a woman. Therein lies the problem with statistics though. The expectation is about 1/16 top players are women. Reality is more like 1/100. I don't think there's data to suggest this difference is driven by mistreatment of women in chess, that's merely an assertion. As for the women seeing the low expected pay, is the assertion there that women are smarter than men when it comes to making career decisions? Otherwise, men face that same reality of only the top few making anything and would surely come to the same conclusion. There's a lot of plausible explanations for why women aren't matching statistical expectations, but I think it's a disservice to just throw our hands up and say: well I guess society is sexist. For example, it could be that men experience greater variance as a group than women, meaning that at both the top and bottom they'd appear disproportionately relative to women. That's not to say sexism isn't real, but I don't think we have any reason to believe sexism is the only, or even the biggest, factor.
Some man want to look superior in chess by turning people off from chess, end up people not giving them any value because people not considered chess is a thing (cause they turn off).
The Problem with Women's chess is that in classical championships is that women play a best of 3, whilst men play a best of 7. The chess rating system is +200elo/ number of games.

@@jacobwilson8275 It does????
Complaining about it wont make you a better chess player
This video feels kind of silly because men are literally better at any game or competition mental or physical. Chess is no different.
Give one example of a mental game where a woman is the best. Chess, Jeporady, Poker you name it the best players are men. @@Princess_Blue380
@@Princess_Blue380 lmfao completely vague answer with no way of proving who is better, means nothing, but men are better at that too. Fact is you can't give on example because deep down you know the truth.
@@Princess_Blue380 They have this search engine called google, you should use it. If you look up the best players in Chess, Jeporady, poker (Magnus Carlsen, James Holzhauer, Phil Ivey etc.) you will see all the best players are men. That being said I challenge you to find any game where the best players are women in ANYTHING.
@@Princess_Blue380 So now you're backtracking and conceding the initial point to me lmfao. Of course there is some woman who is better at some man at something, but the fact remains that all the top mental giants are men. Men are smarter than women, sorry bud.
@@Princess_Blue380 lol you argue like a woman, can't address a point so get emotional and go for personal attacks lmfao
Skill issue
who cares lol
you didn't say why women suck at chess
Hahaha based
they just skill issue
they dont on average...more men play its talent pool thats it.
@@Jason-om2cg so you're saying that they can be better or as good as men in chess?
@@Jason-om2cg if so then prove it because they never were never will be
Can anyone even think of one field where women can compete with men? Music is the only one I can think of. But even there there's never been a female composer who comes close to Beethoven, Liszt, etc.
Totally agree. The video creator needs to see the comments, especially this one and stop whining.
Acting.
@@a.k.7840 NO 😂
Their are many feilds women can compete with but why should we care about whos stronger men or women.If you look at them as both humans then you'll see it doesn't matter.
@@Princess_Blue380 It doesn’t really matter until society tries to say they are equal and all the nonsense that comes with that
