International Chess Federation (FIDE) to ban and punish transgender players
International Chess Federation, FIDE, has released new guidelines targeting transgender players. The guidelines would strip trans men's titles, and potentially bar trans women from playing.
With these new rules, FIDE has managed to
- Imply the mental inferiority of women
- Validate the existence of transgender men
- Destroy the integrity of awards record-keeping
- Call transgender women men
Very nice, FIDE, incredible mental gymnastics performance! 👏 Add them to the ever lengthening sports federation shitlist.

It's fucking chess, a game of the mind. What possible relevance could being transgender have to a game of chess?
CHESS?!
When did sexuality mattered in a game of chess? Like do trans people get a buff at thinking or something?
The men can only move 1 square in any direction, while women can move anywhere on their row/column/diagonal. Clearly this biological difference is why they have separate men's and women's chess tournaments. Also, I hear trans people can double jump.
Damm double-jumping trannies coming to take my fish.
women can move anywhere on their row/column/diagonal
Not all of them. Pawns are women, too, because they can be promoted to queens but not to kings. They can also be promoted to bishops, which means that women are accepted into clergy by chess' church.
The king also is a queen so that's not fair
Men automatically get a +10 masculity buff. It's widely considered an overpowred stat in chess.
Stroking your beard also gives a +2 intelligence boost

Chess has long had different leagues for men and women
Yeah, but that doesn't make it right.
Never said it did. I'm answering your question. When did sexuality matter in game like chess? A very long time, because misogyny.
I agree you never said it did. You just stated what has been happening.
