The fact that there are things called "sports" and "genders" is cultural my peer.

    No, those are words for things that occur in nature, across many animal species.

    If they were a law of nature, society wouldn't have to punish people who "do sports and/or gender wrong"

    Then what about animals’ genders and sports? Are they not natural?

    What sports and genders do animals do? Give examples.

    That animals have genders I don’t think is something that can be denied.

    Many animals (for example smarter birds, such as crows and magpies) perform “for-fun physical activities” such as sliding and flipping, often in group. According to most dictionaries, that counts as a sport.
