A 12-year-old girl withdrew from a national chess competition in Malaysia after some of the organizers said her knee-length skirt was “improper” and violated the tournament’s dress code.
This was revealed by the girl’s coach through a Facebook post which quickly went viral. Kaushal Khandhar wrote that during the tournament, an organizer approached the girl and her mother about the “seductive” dress which is deemed a “temptation from a certain angle far, far away.”
The dress code in Malaysia’s chess tournaments simply states that a player must have a “dignified appearance”.
