Hello friends. I downloaded HOI4 today, as I have long had an interest in WW2 and had seen some youtube videos about this game that I enjoyed.

So I started doing the tutorial.. and I'm getting the impression I'm doing something wrong.

Why are all my units complaining?

(laugh at me all you want, I'll take it on the chin)

Hello psychologers,

I was recently wondering about the fact that there are separate men's and women's divisions in chess. Now of course, the reason that most sports have leagues separated by sex is primarily because one or the other (usually men, but the same principle would apply if it was women) has some kind of great inherent advantage over the other. Consequently, even a highly trained member of one sex would struggle against a fairly casual player of the other sex, and so having one compete directly against the other is considered unfair.

Hence my question to some people who probably know more about the human brain than I do. There are, of course, some psychological differences between the sexes, at least on average. But are any of those large enough, and relevant enough to the topic of chess skill, that it might be a reason to gender-split the game? I am genuinely unaware and want to learn.
