The fact that there are only 41, is due to under representation not ability. That under representation is cause by many factors, including ignorant and damaging comments such as yours. You should be ashamed.

In our life time it is entirely possible to see a female world champion and even the removal of the WGM (and other W titles) due to progress in repairing the damage caused by sexism.

Incorrect, would you like to check FIDE?

Edit to add a list of 41 females who have achieved the title of grandmaster. Not to be confused with the title of WGM.

Historic systemic sexism means women are under represented in the game. Different leagues aim to bring more women and girls into play because for example, a young girl can see women playing and want to get involved. It is much less likely if all they see is a boy’s club.

Anyone can enter the ‘mens’ league, so whenever a woman is good enough to complete they can (and do).
