Unless I'm unaware of something else that is not there.

How do you explain the HUGE difference in chess? A game, that woman were NOT shunned from playing but were encouraged to play since the at least the 12th century. Many High School chess clubs have more girls than boys. They are out there competing and playing every day for centuries.
I don't know the reason, but obviously there is something. Chess requires NO physical advantage. Heck, someone else can move the pieces for you.
One Grand Master plays 3 games at a time, with his eyes closed, and folks only announce where they are moving their piece, and he responds in kind, and his opponent moves the piece for him. Does NOT ever see the board or the pieces, and still shreds folks at will. Pretty amazing stuff tracking 3 games simultaneously, and to know exactly where all your pieces are on the board, but to remember all 3 of your opponents. Crazy.
Why are woman better human beings then men? I dunno know, but I'll take better human being the better pool player any day
With that being said, I'll still root for Karen when she plays in the men's events, I like watching them play as much as the men.
