Author Female vs. Male in chess = 100% equal?

Louise,

I very much disagree with you. I think you are very wrong because:

1. You are not at a high enough level in chess to understand what
other women (top-level) went through
2. According to you, you have no children. Therefore, you have no
knowledge of how it can affect your performance. (I have 4 daughters
and 2 of them do have physical problems each month)
3. You have done virtually zero research about this. Getting the
opinion of a few friends = meaningless
4. You have insulted and belittled others who disagree with you. That
doesn't make you right.

1) you have no idea of my standard of play.Neither do you know what I
have been through. Did you have cancer and play half an hour before
scheduled surgery against a computer and still manage to win? because I
did this
2) I have knowledge of female reproductive cycles and I know there is
plenty a woman can do to improve problems of this nature. I have dealt
with mine using herbs and hormone treatment.
3) how can you know what research I have done. Do you think that I talk
to nobody.
4)I have disagreed with others. I have been insulted here by a couple
of cowardly anomynous posters. however I presume you believe this to be
fine. Or are you another of Troung's alibi's?

We DO know that you are not on the USCF website, unless you are using a fake
name ....

I think you are right. I'm not on the USCF website as I'm not American

Barbara Villiers' e-mail address ends in .uk -- in case no one noticed,
that means "United Kingdom."

Does it matter?

no at present I am not. I have been busy with internet chess. I have
also played postal chess with a degree of success. Buisiness
commitments rule out Tourney chess at this moment in time. But not
being rated has not affected the standard of my play neither am I that
concerned about a rating.

Yes, with one exception: all female chessplayers can kick the shit out of
Ray Gordon.

They can all beat him at chess, too.
