Chess is like Sex....
I know we all like to keep a clean site. But here's an idea to see who can put on their thinking caps (or comedy caps) and add ideas to this chain.

CHESS IS LIKE SEX BECAUSE:

If your partner has a lot more experience, they may lose interest.

or

Sometimes your partner has no idea why you are moving they way you do.


I hope this passes the censor. If it does, let's see what you all can come up with.
Don't be shy. Have fun!

it's not.
Because chess comes to us like the splash of a wave when we first step into the ocean,
and see the whiteness of a froth that looks like ice cream,
it is a joy of childhood,
and like all childhood pleasures that pre-date passion
it is not bound to one person
or to one drive
it stays throughout life as one of those first pleasures:
imagine that: a pleasure that is independent of drive,
like a community independent of geography,
or a sport not tied to a clock,
it defines us
it can even be the hallmark of one's spirit
like the wings of a bird --
and differentiate our approach to life:
the way the wings of a hawk
differ from the wings of a dove.

Shamash
you just smashed my puerile sense of humor.

But very well said, nonetheless.

To Chess Master Shamash
Your words are filled with wisdom.

I would like to pretend that I can understand all you have mentioned in your previous response. I assume that both hawks and doves use the same physical principles to fly...thrust, lift, velocity, gravity and speed. There are probably others.

I don't understand all there is to know about physics. And I REALLY don't understand all there is to know about sex either. Chess is yet another mystery for me.

But 2012 seems like a good year to learn about all the things that we have been short-changed on. So here are some more ways that chess reminds me of sex:

CHESS IS LIKE SEX BECAUSE:

The King is assumed to be in command, even though the Queen does all the really hard work and running around.

The opening moves let both parties know if the game is going to be just an everyday affair or a game to remember.

Chess is like sex becuase
You must study the openings, find your opponent's weaknesses and the ultimate goal is to mate.

It is most effective to attack on more than one side. An attack on the wing should be met with a thrust in the centre.

Most people are better at talking about it than doing it.

chess is like sex because
Anyone can play the game and no matter how many hours spent practising there will still be those that play it badly and those that play it beautifully.

You can spend a long time playing a game but then it is over in one move
