The comments are pretty decent proof that the bar to voting here is way too low.

Man Uses Burka Disguise to Participate in Women’s Chess Tournament
In what is considered a first for the Kenyan Chess Federation, a disciplinary committee is currently debating the proper punishment for a male player who disguised himself as a Muslim woman in an attempt to win a women’s chess tournament. 25-year-old Stanley Omondi was reportedly facing financial woes when he decided to try and get his hands on the £2,400 ($3,000) grand prize of a women’s chess tournament. To pull it off without attracting too much suspicion, the male chess player put on a black burka which only left his eyes and feet visible, and registered under the false name ‘Millicent Awour’. At first, organizers were none the wiser to the player’s gender, but it was his prowess at the game of chess that first drew their attention…
This is so wrong on several levels.
First of all, he should have just been fucking open about it and said, "I identify as a Mohammedan Woman!" I DEMAND to participate.
Secondly, his, HIS, "prowess" got the attention of the judges? What, are they saying that teh wimmenz are not good at chess? Misogynists!

I agree. In mental sports, there should not be any difference (or have separate) competitions for men and women.
