Same reason there are other leagues just for females -- they can't compete with males.
Why? This confuses me. Any chess players out there that can explain this? Why is there a league just for females?
Men have superior upper body strength that allows them to force chess piece moves that even the strongest women would not even be able to attempt.
Serious answer: For whatever reason, the strongest women chess players just aren't as strong as the guys. It could be because fewer women play chess, or it could be that whatever cognative ability makes for a strong chess player is more of a male ability.

Because rules in which the king is everything but the queen is just another piece is sexist and backwards. Should be the other way around.

Because it leaves open the option for pay-per-view topless chess championship matches. I wouldn't pay to see some old Russian dude playing a match topless, but some old Russian chick? Yeah, probably.
Cause they're special. Just like you. Well, not really like you. Special in more exciting, interesting and fun ways. Unlike you.
