It's probably like in chess, how there's open tournaments for all genders, and women's tournaments to encourage more girls to participate.
I'll find an article I saved about women in chess if anyone cares enough, it's buried in my bookmarks somewhere. But the short is that competitive men suck and are toxic, and girls who get into chess quit because they don't wanna deal with it
From what I've seen of Chess GMs, they largely seem like really obnoxious people. Challenger rank players in League of Legends seem like more pleasant people on average than Chess GMs.

it's genuinely insane how sexist chess can be. like you get actual GMs who are like "yeah, girl brains are just smaller, it's science."

It's just chess! Maybe they need a night in Bangkok.
