      @@inmyopinion302 WFM is a title won by competing in women's only tournament. There is generic chess tournament (open for both men and women) and women only chess tournament. There is no men only tournament. It has nothing to do with misogeny. Since way more men are interested in chess it may be pretty tough mentally for women to get into sport with so many men. Women's chess community is tiny. It's nice to have chess tournaments just for women to promote chess among them.

Only works as promotion for women until they learn what these titles are really about, and if you wanna see the best players, male or female, you have to look at those that have the grown-up titles without the W on them. If anything, they may have the opposite effect and be somewhat discouraging

    When I was in H.S. & for a few years before I got there several guys would play chess in the library over lunch break or on free periods & the library wall that separated it from the hall was glass & loads of kids would stand in the hall & some in the library & watch it was pretty crazy seeing all these 15-18 year olds watching other kids play chess.
