I don't understand. I thought there was no difference between men and women so why should it matter if they were called brothers or sisters?

There's a TV show called "Castle" in which the police chief is a woman but everyone calls her "sir".

Weird world.

Saying they are “scary” may be a bad joke, but it also seems to acknowledge that the rest of the field fears to play them… because they almost always win

I think there's also a mistranslation component the author hasn't get. In Russian "scary" describing a female means "so ugly that one can get scared on looking at her".
