nobodys stoping women from getting better if they are "equal" to men
FIDE Transgender Policies
Or they have more opportunities to do so?
The opposite is true: women can compete in women's tournaments and in open once, but men can't compete in women's tournaments but only in open once.
Thus, women have more opportunities to play competitive chess.
it seems to me that if men and women are the same at chess then what that means is that men must put much more time into the game in order to get better
"Men are better than women at chess, but that's because women are more emotionally intelligent than men are, which means that they are far less likely to have the kind of social life that would force them to resort to competitive chess." - Kat Timpf

Thus, women have more opportunities to play competitive chess.
Though a lot of women choose not to play in open events because they don't feel safe, so until FIDE address that issue, we're still going to see relatively small numbers of women at open chess tournaments.

Even if that is true, I do not see how it has any influence on the strength of women chess players.

This thread isn't about the strength of women chess players, or the war on Ukraine, though some people try to take it off topic in different directions.
I've said all along, that FIDE are targeting the easy issue of transgender in sport, which isn't an issue in chess now. But claims of sexual harassment are real, and FIDE are doing nothing about this.
Their priorities are ridiculous.

I am tired of saying the same thing:
Women are not inherently a marginalized group; rather, they deserve equal opportunities to excel. By eliminating gender-specific chess titles and exclusive women-only FIDE rated tournaments, we can pave the way for genuine equality. That will fix transgender issue as well right away. Full stop

p.s. your position fails scrutiny,one suspects you are the opposite of your claim.

Clear as mud. I tell you what, I'll repeat what I said earlier which you ignored before:
Women sexually abuse other women/girls as well
Of course, and men abuse men/boys. But women in chess want a safe environment essentially from men, and for the moment that means they want exclusively women only spaces. They're the victims, so I'm happy to listen to what they're saying
They can play among each other, just not in official tournaments and they should not get any W titles. Problem solved
Let's take away the few scraps we've thrown their way?
I thought the idea was to attract more women to the game?
How about me and you give up telling women what's best for them, and instead listen to them and help to accommodate and include them?
Or they have more opportunities to do so?

nope
bro is back on the "they're victims!" bandwagon
