I wonder to what extent I can be counted in a minyan, the quorom of at least 10 male Jews over the age of 13 that is necessary for communal prayer? If there are at least 11 men the question is moot. But if there is only 10, as occasionally happens, then there might be a problem. I don't know who I could ask and if I were indeed not-countable, I couldn't exactly say the next time I was one of only 10 men that I could not be counted. That would be my "outing" and I will NOT do that to my family. My solution? Try to avoid being one of only 10. I do not like leading prayers & try to avoid that also.
