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.

Haha what a joke, do they think anyone will take them seriously after this? Who's running FIDE, Putin?!

Alas I have no interest in chess myself, but if I did, I'd stay far, far away from bigots and fascists like this lot have revealed themselves to be.
