Yahoo! Answers(Copyright © 2007 Yahoo! Inc.) is a well known Q & A source that many people frequent. In particular to this petition is the Sports > Martial Arts section, of which people come to learn how to get into martial arts, compare notes on respective arts, and overall, simply learn. Just is frequent, there is discussion on Mixed Martial Arts(MMA), and it's respective national representative, UFC. People gather to ask many things about MMA and UFC, asking how to get into it, comparing what they know to others, and basically, learning. There has been near constant debate on how to divide these groups of people, usually boiling down to traditional martial arts, and modern, but at least as many people believe that dividing like this would diminish the learning in each. We believe that the proper division here is between sport martial arts, which include UFC, most MMA, and some styles that choose sport(Judo, Kick Boxing, Boxing, etc.), and martial arts that people do as a lifestyle, be it to learn to defend themselves, or simply getting in shape in a fun way. Why should we sign? It is obvious that there are people who prefer their sport or lifestyle martial art, and not everyone is mature about it. Some times it is harmless, yet instigating as "Mine's better." but sometimes it is as bad as "Yours is #$%@" This will not fix maturity, but it will remove it from these Q&A. So my proposition is that we sign this petition to divide martial arts into Sports > Martial Arts, and possible Society & Culture > Martial Arts.
