      so brave of the Post to publish the courageous "girls be dumb" take, wherein Babs concludes that societal factors can't explain the lack of women grandmasters because The Queen's Gambit "shows, authentically, that any kid is welcome at any chess club."https://nationalpost.com/opinion/barbara-kay-the-glaring-flaw-of-the-queens-gambit-that-no-one-wants-to-mention …

      Saying that sexism doesn't exist in chess because sexism doesn't exist in the fictious chess show is... breathtakingly asinine.

      Judit Polgar said that the two most unrealistic things about the show were 1) Beth's substance abuse problems would've made it absolutely impossible to compete at that level no matter what her natural talent, and 2) the sexism was WAY more common and blatant in real life

          When Polgar was coming up irl the sexist men did not self-censor, at all -- the show is actually back-dating a 21st century idea of "political correctness" into the 20th The gatekeeping wasn't implicit or covert, it was overt and it was meanhttps://www.ibtimes.com/queens-gambit-deja-vu-hungary-chess-champ-polgar-3099903 …

          There are some quotes of people *literally saying* (paraphrased here because I can't be added to Google it) "women are naturally more emotional and therefore lack the capacity for logic required to be a grandmaster". Not randos online -- other grandmasters!

          Yeah I mean what the author of the OP article said is literally false There were a lot of big name players back in the day who outright refused to play against women, they said it was beneath their dignity
