When you think about it, there are some fundamental issues with a traditional pack of cards. Why does the male monarch automatically trump the female one? This was something that bugged 23-year-old forensic psychology graduate Indy Mellink, who was unsure why the king is given a higher value than a queen. So, she decided to go about switching things up, to challenge the sexual inequality in a playing card deck that ranks men above women.

Grew up playing Rook. Religious upbringing but never knew that about the origin of Rook.
It is a great game!
Thank you. I came here to say just that!
But I thought I’d check the replies first.
I even play Rook online.

Wonderful game.
Imagine having a life so vacant you fill it with undertakings like this... then feel really good about it
Ace of SPADES in it?
She removed not just cards with gender, but those which represented people. People have gender—getting rid of one means getting rid of the other.
Because the world of nature- in human evolution- society is NOT a matriarchy. Very few cultural groups have been or are matriarchies-— the failures are no longer around and there are two prominent current examples- Jew-”ish” and African tribal cultures running parts of Africa. They and their politics push the supposedly “better” matriarchy on Western Civilization, notably by violent feminism/nazis and race baiting violence and acts, used as chartered strategy for the Comintern. There is no doubt about this— the assault for decades on the family- Dad, Mom and their children for whom they are the Parents. (Hitlery and her “village” of dykes is a rather prominent extant fact).
...And I hear that old AC/DC song playing in the background of this womyn’s efforts:
“She’s got the Jack...
She’s got the Jack...”
This site like face book.
IS NOTHING SACRED?!?!
This sort of ludicrous mediocrity being passed as “intelligent”,
“Educated”, and “Progressive” has been drawing my ire of late.
Not directed at you, ConservativeStatement.

Dumb broad never played Chess.
Millennials are an ignorant lot fed a lifetime of lies by bitter Leftists.
Why not: Monarch, Consort, Heir
You can’t use “Trump” card or say that one hand “Trumps” another.
Orange Man BAD < /SARCASM >
Where’s that crazy/hot matrix chart?
Tell her what, put some drag queens in the deck and make them superior to the drag king cards.
Actually it is completely wrong in leftists group think to assign genders to the cards.
Who says the king is male or the queen is female.
This woman is stick in pre millennial gender ideology
>>There shouldn’t be any royalty. It should be classless. Every card equal. Just blank cards. No class.
Yoko Ono made a chessboard where all of the squares and pieces were white.
Think of what we couldn’t do without copper
Wouldn’t that be the “Infinity, plus two” card?
Or would it be more like a “Because shut up, you lose. Admit it or else.” Card?
