Women's World Chess Championship: Half way done

Regardless of who wins this match, both men and women's world chess champions are going to be Chinese. A historic and iconic moment for the chess world!
Russians dominate in chess, not withstanding the current World Champion, and they have for decades; maybe even a century. It did say the last challenger to the champ was Russian. I wonder if Chinese Women's chess is dominant like Russian chess was?

(and just to through it out there, why is the U.S. such a laggard when it comes to chess)

Also Chinese women are good...
I'd like to see a match between the 'Men's World Champion' and the "Women's World Champion. I think that would generate some worldwide interest in Chess. - :]
