I'm having trouble remembering but my prof today was talking about Nabokov and his interest in chess, and also some queer elements of Lolita, and at some signal he said "the queering of the knight". Again sorry I forget what he was getting at here, but it got me thinking.. knights are the most gay chess pieces, correct?
(ps-- I do not denote gay as a slur, I mean literally gay)
What the hell kind of classes are you taking?
umm they mention Nabokov and Lolita, so probably literature?
but can we stay on topic, like if a piece were to be gay, wouldn't it be knights? OR(hot take) the king??
yes it was indeed english literature. still feeling bad I cannot remember the lecture properly but it was a lengthy day. the king is quite gay i agree
extra-happy male monarchs never lasted long
Lolita has nothing to do with sexual queering also has nothing to undertake with the verb "to queer"
The king is gay in a very proper, old school british aristocratic way. He likes to stay in his estate with his three pawns (children) and beard (the rook).
