    Saw this story when reading the Eric Black one

    For some reason female chess players are unhappy with the perfectly reasonable request for them to wear Islamic symbols of oppression when participating in next years world championships. Some are even upset they wont be allowed to be in a room with an male coach unless they are married to him.

    I think these women should do as they are told and behave properly.

    The president of the world chess president is clearly an honourable man and this petty lip pouting shows that women are not fit to be let out at all without their husbands

    Too right, bloody women and their rights to wear what they want.

    I heard about this yesterday and my first thoughts were the same as yours. Just because we have a female PM these women think they can carry on with a massive chip on their shoulders.

    Unfortunate first name of the US female champion.

    She isn't a real American (unlike hulk hogan of course). She's Georgian and it's a normal name over there.
