Joe, when you tell a joke, remember to keep the humor density above 50%,
otherwise you have a JV (Joke Variant) which is hard to laugh at and can
offend.  Of course, when this happens the JV inventor usually comes back
and says something like, 'Wake up, I was joking.'  Or, 'You took me
seriously?'

So, how are we to know that the GO comparison to large CVs is not a joke? 
In fact, that is more humorus to me than is the ladies/kid comment.

As for your statement:  '... after the 2 extremely bitter and
hard-fought draws I've played against zcherryz, if you think I'd
seriously maintain men are innately better than women at chess, you're
crazier than I am.'
Response: I think you implied that particular conclusion with your
computer, kids, ladies 6x6 statement.  Interesting that your Zcherryz draw
is only mentioned after-the-fact.
