"In the past, I have said that there is real chess and women’s chess. Some people don’t like to hear this, but chess does not fit women properly. It’s a fight, you know? A big fight. It’s not for women. Sorry. She’s helpless if she has men’s opposition. I think this is a very simple logic. It’s the logic of a fighter, a professional fighter. Women are weaker fighters."

Kasparov is a reactionary moron, always has been.

Men doing things that aren't traditionally masculine always end up trying to make their thing out to be equivalent to war (see also business strategy/tactics). It would be funny if it weren't so sad.
