Surely chess is one of the things that you probably wouldn't have an advantage by being a bloke against women?

The women’s section seems to have had really weak players in it so despite being nothing special he had a good chance of winning all of it. In general though you’re right

Ever read any Andy McNab books? Frequently talks about dressing up in the Niqab to go undetected and sneak out of a hot situation. Actually paid off once or twice if what he writes about has any truth.
