It feels mighty real to be gay.....
I am gay so are there any other gay chess players like me?

Ok, I'll unblock you.
What is the blocking procedure ?
Can only members block ?

"What is the blocking procedure"? Go to your profile page, look for the privacy setting on the right. (it has a pad lock). After you click that, scroll to the bottom of the page. Type in the name of the person bothering you.

wow,so we do have a handsome young ,gay,stuntman,who plays chess at this site,you must be popular.
Come on, guys. Please drop the unecessary bullying and be nice. Polebuster has a legitimate curiosity. (I'm sure certain heterosexual male florists in a sexist county region would wonder too if he is the only one in his city who's male and loves flowers the way he does.) It's only human to want to find others who are in their own group when the presence of the group isn't so apparent.
Hey, I found this old thread because I was in fact curious myself about other gay chess players who might be here on this website.
OP, I would love to announce that I'm a young gay college-age guy, out and proud, have loved playing chess as long as I've known about myself being LGBT-identified. You may or may not still be around, but there you go.
Absolutely. There are 1,300 grandmasters last I've heard, so there are approximately 130 gay grandmasters alone. As for chessplayers in general if you have 2 million registered members of FIDE then there are 200,000 rated gay members.
For further statstics since the bottom 2% of IQ is retarded we can ascertain that .2% of the population are gay retards (and gay geniuses for that matter too since top 2% is genius level), and 1% are gay lefties whereas x are gay retards (100/10= 10 of course, but to obtain 2% of 10 we'll need 10*.02 = .2% so we can ascertain that retard righties and conversely genius righties are 1.8% the population)
In another thread, we're discussing how the ratings distribution of men and women differ in peak location, and that the cause may very well be biological. You're assuming that whatever sets gays apart from heterosexuals has no biological effect on innate chess ability; however, this may be an incorrect assumption. There are perfectly logical arguments in favor of the homosexual ratings distributions not being aligned with the heterosexual ones, in both directions - however, since sexual orientation is not something that is registered along with one's FIDE rating, this cannot be statistically investigated.
In any case, there most likely are gay GMs out there, but saying that they make up 10% of the GM population may be an incorrect oversimplification.
