Hi!
Is posing and dancing displaying a developed physique really a demostration of athletism?
Good thing you showed up.
We have only discussed this enough times to get us into the “trillionth” range of numbers. Me personally, I lose count after 5 billion.

It’s the ugly love child of a three way between art, sport and science. Only problem is no one is really sure who the father is

If you get judged by how you look while you do it, it is not a sport. That doesn’t mean that people who do it are not athletes or athletic, but it is not a sport.

However, the degree of skill and performance in some sports such as diving, dressage and figure skating is judged according to well-defined criteria. This is in contrast with other judged activities such as beauty pageants and body building , where skill does not have to be shown and the criteria are not as well defined.[/quote]
damn it…no more debates.
Sports have many affinities with art. For example, figure skating, drum corps, skateboarding, artistic gymnastics, dancesport, and T’ai chi can be considered artistic spectacles. Similarly, there are other activities that have elements of sport and art in their execution, such as bodybuilding, free running, martial arts, professional wrestling, performance art, yoga, dressage, and culinary arts. Perhaps the best example is bull-fighting, which in Spain is reported in the arts pages of newspapers.
Yeah right, just because Wikipedia says so BB is not a sport? Come on.

I could care less. These debates usually only pop up so one group can say it isn’t a sport as if that lessens it.
