Chess commentator sacked after "chess is maybe not for women" remark

This is not a people problem… it’s a problem with some of the men in the sport. Let’s be specific here and not just assume that it’s a bunch of nerdy weirdos that are the problem, but instead recognize it as a society-wide problem with misogyny. :woman_shrugging: There is not a single women (whether they admit it or not) who have not had to deal with systemic misogyny in their lives. Every single one of us, no matter what profession we end up in, or what we’re doing with our lives, have had to deal with this kind of thing at some point or another. It’s pervasive and systemic.
