Rooks can become queens, but not kings.
There are a couple of explanations for this.
Either rooks are all female, or the queen is a gender neutral position that may be assumed by a suitable warrior twink

You are probably thinking of pawns. Pawns are the ones who can promote to Queen (or other pieces except king) but as far as I know there is no 1 canon on what gender pieces are so you can use your own imagination. I have heard people say how pawns are essentially trans women (pawns are male and transition to a female queen) but like I think you can make any other lore regarding gender of pieces.
Truly, you have a dizzying intellect.
That’s about as kind as anyone could be.
I think prawns can become horseys and (however unlikely) rooks and bishops too.
If they can transform species like that then I think a penis or a womb here or there is no big deal.
I think maybe they're more like snails, who'll do whatever it takes to secure a mate.
I saw a video a while back about the history of chess and it’s pieces, i think it was something along the lines that the queen was like… President, of something elss like that before queen got mainstream?
Source = very sleepy memory.
Oop, yes, meant to say pawn.
Well I thought it was funny anyway
Interesting thing I never thought of, but the answer to me is yes, Pawns are female & so are Queens. Chess is extremely & did not factor transgenderism or things like that.
Thank you, no expert, but know words/terms matter a lot. I will read the link’s webpage, thanks, again.
Can we bring back the down vote button lol
I dunno, but Bishops look like tits.

They’re not prawns, they’re horses, and referred to as knights. Also they don’t become queens.

You might be confused. You seem to be taking about a similar game called “Chest”.
I think they were talking about Chess.
