Having to remember all the rules: dress a certain way so people don’t comment about you, make chess content that is 100% serious, don’t talk about chess unless you’re a gm, always act as a representative for every woman in chess, don’t make jokes, is frankly exhausting and a lot… https://t.co/d99CQCpFw9

It's the anna kournikova problem. It must be super frustrating to work hard and be insanely good at something, and then the mediocrity with nice tits gets all the attention and endorsement money.

At least Anna Kournikova was Top 10 in singles at one point, and #1 in doubles. She got way more attention than she deserved, but she did deserve some.
These losers, though? I'd be shocked if anyone in that photograph has even come close to Top 10. Heck, I'd be shocked if more than couple of them have cracked the Top 100. And I'm talking about the women's Top 100, in a game that has no reason to be segregated by s*x. Shout-out to Maia Chiburdanidze, Judit Polgár, and Hou Yifan for understanding that.
These women are chess "personalities", not chess players. Treating them as anything more would be like calling ring girls "boxers".

Honestly, that's fine then. Models, celebs and influencers will always get more attention than people actually doing a thing for real.

Absolutely. Take a look at Jennifer Yu. Young, female, American player. She's INCREDIBLY strong (stronger than all content creators who are not pro players, male or female) and she's virtually unknown out of actual chess viewers

Someone like Anna Kournikova is still good enough to make the tournaments, which is exceptional, but she's just on the lower end of it. But then, these women aren't pretending to be top echelon, as far as I can tell.
There was a decision to pretend that s*x doesn't sell any more, and it creates situations like this where it's used but it has to be portrayed as empowering.

It's cute when foids think their achievements in random event x hold greater meaning than the deepest human instincts around which entire civilizations have been built.

There is a segment of the female population that seek companionship from something that will never be more than words on a screen. All this something can offer is a hollow imitation of what you can do as an intelligent and interesting person. Go find these weirdo bitches and be their chatboy.

Women either want a hollow imitation, or are too dumb to tell the difference.
