What do you think about giving sex a game?
Many media and social media have printed and written this claim. Apart from India, some Pakistani websites also ran the news. A Greek portal even wrote that Greek competitors would participate in it. South Africa, Nigeria, German media houses also ran a poll with this news, in which people were asked, “What do you think about giving sex a game recognition?”
But, is this news true? It was claimed that Sweden has officially recognized sex as a game and is going to hold its first sex tournament this week.
However, in fact check, this claim has been proved wrong. Sweden’s sports administration has denied any such plan. Swedish Sports Confederation spokeswoman Anna Jetsman said the information was “false”. “At present, false news is being spread in some international media about sweden and swedish games,” he told DW in a written statement. We strongly deny this.
Person who claimed there was a sex federation
Yotebogs Poston is one of the leading Swedish-language newspapers. According to its news, behind this entire drama is the role of a Swedish man, Dragan Bratich. According to the newspaper, Bratize owns several strip clubs. He wanted sex to get the status of a game. In January 2023, he applied for membership of the Sports Confederation. The Swedish Sports Confederation confirmed with DW that there was a person who claimed there was a sex federation and also applied for membership. But his application was rejected in May.
Another leading Indian media house associated with CNBC wrote in its news, how to participate in the tournament. At the same time, the news also mentioned an e-mail related to the Alleged Swedish Sex Federation. Interestingly, there is a website of this name but it takes it to a website with a different URL. A countdown for the tournament is underway on this website, which it claims will be live streamed to the event.
The Confederation rejects working closely with any sex organization. “There is no sex federation that is a member of the Swedish Sports Confederation. This misinformation is being spread to tarnish the image of the Swedish Games and Sweden.
Swedish Sex Federation: Registered sports organizations
On the other hand, the alleged sex federation says, “It is a matter of shame that the Swedish Sex Federation has not been given two billion Swedish currency assistance, which is distributed by the Government of Sweden to the registered sports organizations.
Sex Championship: Sex is a taboo subject in many countries. As well as the Nordic country is known for organizing some very unique games. For example, a competition to run with a wife or an international all-round championship, which was discontinued after the death of one of the competitors. However, sex competitions are not organized.
Many media groups in South Asia published the news without proper investigation or fact-check. One website even wrote in its report how the knowledge of Kamasutra can help competitors and in the last paragraph of the news, it said that the news of the championship is false.
