At x, people expressed surprise at the insensitivity of the class, and people who are not good at sports expressed their resentment towards physical education. Why do physical education classes produce so many people who dislike exercise? Shueisha Online Editorial News Team Voices of resentment towards physical education classes erupt Posts about “physical education classes” are becoming a hot topic on x. One of the most shocking incidents I’ve encountered while using Twitter was when an NPO employee who creates spaces for local residents to play sports said, “Until I started using Twitter, I never knew there were people who resented school physical education,” which was an eye-opener for me. The person said that physical education was the most fun. He was stunned by the number of complaints directed at physical education. 〉 This post caused a huge stir, with 33.56 million impressions and 100,000 likes. In response to this post, many people who “hate PE” posted comments such as “It was really painful” and “I wasn’t good at PE, but at the same time I didn’t like the people who were good at PE,” as well as comments of surprise such as “I didn’t realize,” “They’re so insensitive,” and “They didn’t notice their classmates who hated PE…” By the way, former track and field athlete and World Athletics Championship bronze medalist Dai Tamesue has also posted something similar in the past. “The good thing about leaving sports and going out into society is that I realized there were so many people who disliked or hated sports, and people who played sports but were hurt by it. (Omitted) I think we need to understand that a not-so-small group of people who have had terrible experiences with sports and have distanced themselves from them are looking coldly at us for saying that “sports are the best.”
Although not all of them are, it seems to be true that people who are good at sports are not aware that “there are people who hate physical education and sports.” So why do physical education classes create a dislike of exercise? The following reasons were posted on x: “I was laughed at by the people around me.” “What was hard was being compared to others and being discriminated against, and being treated like a burden when we were assigned to different teams.” “It was also hard to hold everyone back in team sports.” The post that went viral received a flood of replies sharing painful experiences, such as making mistakes during team sports in gym class and being given cold stares or laughed at. However, is the mechanism by which physical education classes mass-produce people who dislike exercise really just due to ridicule and discrimination from people who are good at sports?

I don’t understand PE, but I don’t understand the value of art classes even more. I’m not going to be a painter or anything, and I don’t want to get better at drawing. What’s more, even though drawings can’t be objectively judged as good or bad, they still get graded for some reason. What objective criteria do teachers use to judge them? Like attitude in class?
>>12 When you’re writing something on a blackboard or whiteboard it’s better to be good than bad But now I use PowerPoint to explain things, so I can just go to Irasutoya lol.
>>12 Art is something that anyone can appreciate. It’s weird because it’s supposed to sharpen your senses. They should teach you the knowledge in the liberal arts class.
>>12 Co-subjects are important. Referring to others, understanding the process and finishing by the deadline, managing tools, concentrating, objectively comparing your own performance with that of others, etc. They can even be more important than your main subjects.
I don’t like sports, or rather, athletic clubs. There’s that peculiar subservient relationship between seniors and juniors where no one benefits. Also, people in that type of club seem to believe that exercise and sports will solve all problems, like health or relationships.
>>16 People who think that the athletic way is absolutely good are a nuisance to society… I have a friend who was targeted and destroyed by a crazed old lady He was originally the type of person who was liked by everyone, regardless of age or gender.
It’s easier to survive if you’re treated as incompetent from your student days than if you suddenly enter a capitalist society and are treated as incompetent.
The only way physical education can cause trauma is if you’re bad at sports, with developmental coordination disorder. Such people have a tendency to have unpleasant memories. Developmental disorders occur together.
It is said that people with developmental disorders can have flashbacks of unpleasant memories or vividly recall them as images.
Physical education is the best subject for teaching about survival of the fittest, it’s one of the few subjects where you can visibly see who is superior.
In elementary school, if you couldn’t do a back flip on the horizontal bar, you had to keep doing it while everyone was watching you until the bell rang, and if you couldn’t swim, you had to keep doing it while everyone was watching you until you finished swimming. I think that’s wrong.
>>27 There are only about three people in a class who have experienced this. On the internet, it becomes millions and there are huge voices saying this, but the majority of the rest either like PE or are just okay with it.
I loved PE too, but I didn’t think there would be people who didn’t like it. That’s tough. How can you not pay attention to what’s going on around you?
>>32 There are a lot of people like that, not just in PE… They only care about being praised, so they don’t show any consideration or care for those around them and don’t get praised that much, and when the time comes, they’re looked down upon… or something like that.
When dividing teams into ball games or rock-paper-scissors, the strongest players are chosen at first, and then it’s always the last person left who has to fight over the best players. And then there’s the pushing and shoving of me at the bottom.
When I was in high school, I played soccer and for some reason the goalkeeper yelled at me. I didn’t understand what he meant. It wasn’t until a few years later that I realized that this was different from the world of the younger generation, where everyone wanted to be a goalkeeper because they could use their hands.
>>48 In high school, we did a kind of warm-up game of catch with a volleyball, but my partner, who was divided by height, couldn’t even do it. He said he was scared and bounced it off with his hands. I got more and more annoyed, so in the end I hit him with all my might lol.
