Sweden has created history, by officially recognising sex as a sport and hosting the first-ever European Sex Championship.
It may sound unreal, but the Swedish Sex Federation (SSF), which is the organiser of the championship, has been functioning since 2016 and is the only organisation to recognise sex as a sport.
The championship will span several weeks, with participants competing for six hours a day. During this time, participants will have approximately 45 minutes to an hour to engage in their respective matches or activities.
Contestants will compete in 16 disciplines, and scores will be evaluated by both the audience and a panel of five judges. Participants must earn enough points to proceed through each of the three stages of the competition. The competition is open to individuals of all sexual orientations and genders.
The championship will take place near Gothenburg, Sweden, starting on June 8, 2023, with participants from various European countries.
Already all the participants have sent their applications to participate in this championship. The federation has stated that the important motive of the organization is “strong opposition to the domination of men over women.”
The 16 different disciplines include various categories like Seduction, Massages, Prelude, Oral Sex, Penetration, Endurance, best artistic communication, etc.,
“Sexual orientation can become part of the sports tactics that European countries will adopt,” says the organizer of the competition.
The president of the Swedish Federation of Sex Dragan Bratych believes that turning sex into a sport was only a matter of time. He says that sex may help people reach both mental and physical well-being, but doing this requires preparation.
“In order for people to achieve the results they want, they need to train, just like in any other sport. Therefore, the next logical step for them is to start competing in this as well,” said Bratich. – This is the first sport in which the opponent must get a huge dose of pleasure. If the opponent is unhappy, he loses the game, which is very revolutionary and very unique to the world we live in.”
“In all other sports, the opponent is offended or upset by defeat. Not so with sex. The more fun your opponent is, the more points you get, ”Bratich added.
The Swedish Sex Federation notes that sex as a sport is actually quite difficult. It involves the most creative participants with interesting ideas, strong emotions, imagination, physical fitness, endurance and performance.
The president of the federation also stated that the competition’s rules will evolve over the years. However, they will hold such a competition for the first time, and each year it will be updated in response to feedback and needs.
