Is Sweden’s sex championship fake? Check out the video to know the truth.
A message about Sweden officially recognising sex as a sport is going viral on social media. The claim also states that the first-ever sex competition named 'European Sex Championship' will be held in the country by Swedish Sex Federation. It further lists down rules and regulations of the competition.
Several social media users shared it along with a verified account on Twitter, The Tatva, ring-wing propaganda website, Op India, and media outlets like Zee News Madhya Pradesh, Zee News Kannada, Zee News Bengali, and News18. Other media outlets like Times of India, Hindustan Times, and India Today had also shared the claim. However, now it has been found that the news is fake. All these news platforms that had shared the news later deleted it or edited it to say that this information is not verified. The Swedish Sex Federation is a real organisation. The Quint contacted the Swedish Sports Confederation and they clarified that Sex Federation is not a member of the Swedish Sports Confederation. The Swedish Sex Federation had applied to get sex classified as a sport but was rejected because the application was incomplete.
