Does anyone know the bs reasons they gave to ban trans women? I don't understand how one of the least by gender divisible games pulled that off.

FIDE probably thinks women are dumber than men. I don't see any other reason

That's basically what they said. They also claimed that women have less stamina than men, so aren't up to the long games of chess that men play.

Maybe they fear trans women's ability to cheat using vibrating anal beads?
