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.

The last person I want to hear from about fairness in sports is Lance Armstrong. Bloody hell, lol

No shit. Especially on a silly celeb survival show hosted by Will Shatner.
