Does anyone know of any women that are fans of chess variants? The only one
I know of is Christine Bagley-Jones. Web demographics say this site
primarily is viewed by middle-aged men.

Interesting question. I have worked with Christine, and played against
her. She is very good, but inactive now. I know of Renee because I'm a
member of the Three D Chess Federation. She is apparently not very active,
although she may well be playing 3D chess on a Qubic board right now.

I've noticed that the participants here tend to fall into 3 categories,
all male: students; 30-40 year-olds; and too close to 60. 

Let me second this question. Who are the women here? Surely there have to
be more than 2 interested in variants. What gives? Where are you all?
