My (admittedly local) experience is quite contrary and the average chess player is way more gentleman than an average footballer here. Also consider, given the severe numerical imbalance male-female and how society is playing the "mating game" it's inevitable women get a LOT more attention, for better (special status & less competition) and for worse (harassment).
Just when I feel tempted to think that everyone has finally read the memo, it gets worse.
Right?

Wow, what a story! I had no idea. It’s hard to believe this is still going on in this day and age. 😱
