Also if anyone was intrigued as what was the sexist comment made by the author, at least one was revealed at the same blog comments. Not sure if there were others.
On my part, I am in two minds initially. It is the author who repeats the sexist attitude of the player but then is not QC repeating and reinforcing the same sexist attitude by publishing it? A possible defence is to say it is historical but I think by now everyone knows about these sexist attitudes if they desire to dig a bit (..... after did not one of the Polgar sisters comment that she did not hear of any male opponent who lost to her of not being afflicted with some form of malady), do we really need a 2012 publication to repeat something which smells like, looks like "shit".
Further support for some complicity on QC's part is revealed by the fact that QC acknowledges it edits to quite an extent the chessic material, including checking lines/variations et al. This is to say some lines are added and/or improved by the editors. Evidence? the famous case f the missing lines which has now turned up in the QC newsletter.
Surely, the same editorial zeal (which is applauded!) should also apply to non-chessic stuff. After all this is basic Inclusive Non-sexist Language Course 101.
I think QC in not taking a stand on this has tainted its name. Albeit at the same time they publish a seemingly great book by Judit Polgar. But then ...... (I cannot say more without being defamatory).
Finally two things: some will say, let's talk chess but unfortunately this is chess! when I am constantly trying to get more girls to play and persist with chess ......
Secondly, there goes my dream of publishing with QC ......
