Of the 2,566 athletes who participated in the 2010 Winter Olympics in Vancouver, only six athletes, all women, were openly lesbian or bisexual:  In the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, 23 athletes out of the 10,768 participants were openly gay, lesbian or bisexual:   LOCOG was the first organizing committee in Olympic history to include a commitment to diversity in its bid. The organizers publicly supported pro-LGBT concerns during the lead-up to the Games, such as during Pride London 2010, when special pins featuring the Games' emblem and a rainbow flag were sold as part of a wider range celebrating various aspects of diversity. LOCOG chief executive Paul Deighton stated that its vision was "as bold as it is simple – to use the power of the Games to inspire change. We want to reach out to all parts of the community and connect them with London 2012". A slightly larger number of LGBT athletes competed in London, with 23 out of more than 10,000 competitors, and only three gay men. "Outsports" co-founder Jim Buzinski considered it to be an "absurdly low number", and considered that in comparison to the arts, politics or business worlds, "sports is still the final closet in society". At least two out athletes competed in the 2012 Summer Paralympics in London. In the 2014 Winter Olympics in Sochi, Russia, seven openly gay women competed:  Russia's stance on LGBT rights were a major concern during the lead-up to these Games;in 2012, a Russian court blocked the establishment of a Pride House in Sochi for the games because it would "contradict" public morality, and in June 2013, Russia became the subject of international criticism after it passed a federal "gay propaganda law", which made it a criminal offence to distribute materials classified as "propaganda of non-traditional sexual relationships" among minors. In the face of mounting anti-gay pressure, the Russian LGBT Sport Federation hosted a gay-friendly sport event in Moscow in order to boost gay pride and provide a positive image of LGBT Russians. The event had 200 participants from seven nations. This occurred during the break between the Olympics and Paralympics. In the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, a record 68 athletes out of the 10,444 participants were openly gay, lesbian or bisexual, nearly double the LGBT athletes who took part in the 2012 Summer Olympics. There were no openly transgender athletes, but "Rolling Stone" magazine reported that two transgender athletes would compete in Rio, based on anonymous details in IOC papers. 51 women and 17 men - who are now openly LGBT - competed in this Olympiade (some came out afterwards) :  One other LGBT athlete was known to compete at the time, but did not wish to be identified due to still being in the closet.
