Any sport where a woman can finish in the top 5 against the best men in the sport clearly is not a sport with athletes.

I think sex can be a sport. Provided there are unusual elements to the sex like climbing, fighting, and running... climbing into a window, fighting off an angry father, and then running like hell.

Regardless, any sport where a woman can compete with the best men in the world in that sport is not a sport that requires athletes.

Not a single WNBA player could compete in the NBA, for example.

Also, everything can be made a sport by definition.

Quidditch is now a sport.

Typing can be a sport.

Get a league together, and whoever types the fastest wins. Bingo, you got a sport.

Speaking of Bingo, that is a sport by definition.


The op should say what do you personally consider a sport. Although, he would still be a dumbass for not considering the NBA a sport

You try walking 3 miles while hitting a small ball with a flat face accurately all the while having the mental fortitude to stay 100% focused on every shot.

Golf is absolutely a sport.


Most vagina thing I've ever read. There are retired 90 year old couples that do it every day.

Not a sport.

Definition of athlete : a person who is trained or skilled in exercises, sports, or games requiring physical strength, agility, or stamina



NASCAR absolutely fits that.


Where is the agility and strength in NASCAR? Serious question.

To me a sport is when you're competing in an open motor environment (i.e. directly against competition) where variables can change from moment to moment.


I think this is fair. Yet...

Did you just suddenly switch into an alternate reality where motorsport is NOT what you JUST said?
