With these new rules, FIDE has managed to

  1. Imply the mental inferiority of women
  2. Validate the existence of transgender men
  3. Destroy the integrity of awards record-keeping
  4. Call transgender women men

Very nice, FIDE, incredible mental gymnastics performance! ๐Ÿ‘ Add them to the ever lengthening sports federation shitlist.

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.
