Right, so the transphobic fear the FIDE has is that men might try to exploit a loophole by "posing" as trans. So they have these severe restrictions on who might be considered transitioned, why they will "alert" tournaments that someone is trans, why they require legal proof of transitioning before giving in and why they're stripping trans men of their titles (so that if a cis man manages circumvent all these protection by successfully posing as a trans woman and having won all these titles transitions back, he no longer has them).
It's the same trans-panic as in so many other sport federations. Severe legislation hurting trans people trying to pre-empt a completely made up cheating scenario.
edit: (hopefully) clarified the wording
The gender division is because women on average are worse than men at chess and likely to be eliminated in a tournament early on if they manage to qualify at all.
This is because chess is a boys club where men and boys get better training and have an easier time advancing and practicing then women.
The best way to get better at chess however are tournaments, where you can play your equal under a stressful and emotional context. Since women can't advance as well as men because of discrimination, they wouldnt be able to play tournaments making it even more difficult to advance their game.
The women's league are created so that women can play in tournaments, get practice, get better and be able to play in the big boy tournaments as well as a creating an environment where sexual harrasment, which is also a problem at the main tournaments, is mitigated.
Edit TL;DR women's league are there because women chess players typically get sidelined. Its basically affirmative action.
They're meant to be compared to other felt tipped pens I think

Ukraine exchanges POW's
Former POW gets executed in a way even medieval Europe shunned by Russia
Why would Ukraine do this?
Big brain moment there bud. Imagine you're the Ukrainian POW that didn't get released in case Russia killed the POW Ukraine sent them back.
