There is even a Chess league division for women. I don't believe its about which gender is stronger or smarter. Its about an archaic tradition.
Women were not considered for any kind of competition until recent decades. When they started to gain interest and attention, we already had professional leagues for men and it would have been unfair to match somebody that is just learning how to play, against someone that have been playing for years.
We simply adopted that same mentality for almost every type of competition, ignoring the fact that women now adopt the discipline in their early years as much as men.
So basically, we are still being ruled by outdated lines of thought. We should be glad we were born in a better society and that video games were born in this era, we still need to improve a lot, but at least we can all play together :)
