Credit to google: Chess is “not for women. … Women are weaker fighters,” world champion Garry Kasparov said in 1989. “Men are hardwired to be better chess players than women,” vice president of the world chess federation FIDE and grandmaster Nigel Short said in 2015, adding, “you have to gracefully accept that.”
A real-life Harmon would have had to deal with all kinds of comments about women’s inferior chess abilities. Misogynist digs are common in the top ranks of the game. “I guess they’re just not so smart,” world champion Bobby Fischer said in 1962.

Yeah, BUT, as you should know, Bobby Fischer went crazy. He was anti-jews even tho he WAS one
They are not nice people boys are just as good as girls and girls are just as good as boys!
I believe personally that it comes down to interest. More men are interested so then statistically the probablitiy for men to perform better than women at a non physical sport must be based on interest. But if you look at women who are interested there are many GM's with high ratings. Judit polgar I believe defeated many of the best male players of her generation. That would be like saying men are not good shoppers. Compared to women who on average enjoy shopping, they will spend time picking out the best deals, whereas men walk in and grab the first thing they see and leave as quickly as possible. But Im sure there are some men out there who are just as devoted shoppers as the ladies.
