No. Pawns can be promoted to any piece except for the king, including the queen. That means every piece other than the king must be a woman. So that means chess is a battle between two kings and their concubines.

Nah, I know plenty of queens that are men.

Pawns aren't necessarily women, but they are necessarily fabulous.
