    Imagine believing this in 2026. There’s a reason most sports are separated by gender and it certainly isn’t “culture”.

        No, those are words for things that occur in nature, across many animal species.

          If they were a law of nature, society wouldn’t have to punish people who “do sports and/or gender wrong”

                That animals have genders I don’t think is something that can be denied.

                Many animals (for example smarter birds, such as crows and magpies) perform “for-fun physical activities” such as sliding and flipping, often in group. According to most dictionaries, that counts as a sport.
