Women in go

I wasn’t aware that in Greece, board games are not considered as games for adults. This seems to be quite specific to Greece. On the other hand, gender imbalance already exists among children. Look at the page of the go club Grenoble - Ecole de Go (38GJ). It’s a school go club, in a primary school. Open to all but most players are under 12, some of them between 12 and 16 (those between 12 and 16 generally started before 12). Most players are apparently male. I don’t believe it’s because of bad male behavior, not at that age. Probably stereotypes are the main factor.
