Women and Chess

So BDK references some study that shows women and men have equal chess skill…ok, fine, but who really cares about that?

If I played chess, here’s what I’d be thinking: we do know that there exist some hot female chess players. I’d be much more interested in that percentage than anything.

So if we can compile pictures of female, legal (18 and over) rated chess players, maybe we can do some sort of scientific study and publish it. And if the women want to evaluate the men, well, maybe we can throw that in too. But I can’t help with that part b/c I don’t lean that way. Although I hear some guy Viktor Korchnoi is quite the catch now.

    There’s always the world chess beauty contest ( not sure it’s still an active link since my work firewall won’t allow me to even verify this link… so it must be HOT)

    Polly’s kinda hot, esp. in that cycling outfit. (Nothing personal, of course.)

    You do know I was kidding about the Korchnoi being hot thing, right?

    Unfortunately, the World Chess Beauty Championship is down for the count.

    Bud: Thanks for the compliment. I think? :-) Right now I’m not feeling like a hot chess babe. Check back with me during the summer.
