"Mike Murray" <mikemurray@despammed.com> quoted "Nick" as follows ...[vbcol=seagreen]

It seems Nick did not quote me accurately. I did not say there is "no
subculture of sexism within chess." I said I didn't believe that "chess as a
subculture" discriminates against women. This is quite a different point.

Put another way, I deny that chessplayers as a group tend to discriminate
against women, though some individual chessplayers may. On the contrary, I
believe that women often get preferential treatment in chess.
