FIDE Transgender Policies

That's what I would advocate for, yes. I see no problem with it. There's no documented evidence of Trans players doing extremely well at the highest levels of women's chess and at any other level, these tournaments are just about creating a good environment for women, providing role models and forming communities of female chess players. As someone who actually plays in these tournaments, I see no problem with Trans women chess players also benefiting from these tournaments, it's not a detriment to me whatsoever. The "evidence" produced in this thread for men being somehow inherently superior to women has been faulty, inconclusive or just plain wrong.

trans women are not real women and are playing make-believe and pretend. similar to how 7 year olds play cowboys and indians or whatever...

you gonna disprove my claim? or just keep ignoring it because there is no way to prove it wrong?

The current scientific consensus is that Gender dysphoria is real.

how. if you have XY then you are male and if you have XX then you are female

nothing can disprove that. its simple biology

Sex and gender are defined differently.

Sex and gender are defined differently.

gender is literally defined as "the male and female sex"

Bro yall at this point just wanna pretend to be animals identifying as a xe or a xse

The google definition you took that from but didn't read: "the male sex or the female sex, especially when considered with reference to social and cultural differences rather than biological ones, or one of a range of other identities that do not correspond to established ideas of male and female."
Literally defined by the social and cultural implications over biological ones.

Very, very few people want to be identified using anything other than "she", "he" or "they". These other variants of pronouns are just an attempt at making a new pronoun to be used in the place of "they". If they want to be identified by these pronouns, why shouldn't we? Doesn't hurt anyone to refer to someone as they want to be referred to. It's like calling someone by the correct name and pronouncing it correctly, it's courtesy.

i dont understand why people want to have plural pronouns tbh

Its annoying for me because its not the correct name and no im not willing to call them a decapitated octopus identifying as a they.

Nice one! That's a quote commonly misattributed to Lenin but that he didn't actually say. Either way it's a stupid point because gender and sex are two different terms that are defined differently by researchers and scientists and I sincerely doubt you have any qualifications in this area.

That's the whole point of the "xe/xim" type pronouns. Some people don't like "they" because it's also a plural term (though it is also a gender neutral singular term) and that's the point of these new pronouns.

Not sure what the Russian invasion of Ukraine has to do with this subject, though Russia's attitudes towards transgender people is pretty hostile, and FIDE is run by a Russian. Meanwhile, Russian players aren't sanctioned by FIDE (except Karjakin), and Ukrainian players are victimised doubly.

But probably best not to get sidetracked down unknowns
