This is a thread to watch. Women who went through the women's channel and then switched to open, are there any and did any climb to the top? They wouldn't then claim to have all of their successes in the open category. But women who claim to be men want their wins in the women's lane to be renamed as if they'd been competed "as men" in the open category. Interesting that chess got on the "exploration/investigation" bandwagon. Perhaps the women's category makes it more comfortable for teen girls, letting them avoid sexual innuendoes and flirting distractions. I'm planning to watch this. I don't think a dude in a dress should be allowed into any women's category, anywhere.

indeed, Judit Polgár is the most successful female player, took games off Gary Kasparov - worlds greatest chess player ever with possible exception of Magus C, also beat Fischer and other world champions. She was in top 10 in the world at point point. A proper genius.
