Alright my fellow men, I have been thinking about this question for awhile now: What’s worse, being ghosted…
42 years old and suddenly waking up with wood daily after not really having that happen much since my 20s. I lost weight and got divorced, is this normal?

Kinda relieved to know things are functioning. Is it because I lost weight or because I got out…

Entirely depends on the sport.
Depends on the sport, really. Men are generally useless at gymnastics by the time they hit 30. But they can be elite boxers in their late forties. And there are 85 year olds who still run marathons and finish in the middle of the pack.
“We’re all told at some point in time that we can no longer play the children’s game, we just don’t know when that’s gonna be.
Some of us are told at eighteen, some of us are told at forty, but we’re all told.”
I don’t really understand the question. Cut off for what? Trying to play them? Enjoying them?
When their bodies say no more.
You can play watersports your entire life and still be golden
I’d say my days of gaining any competence at something like basketball is well behind me (I’m 35). But I’ve made some decent progress with rock climbing from where I started a year ago, which was barely being able to pull myself up without the use of my legs to now being able to navigate the bouldering walls (albeit slowly).
35 is the age where “old boys” rugby begins. There is a big drop-off for most of us around there.
There is no age cut off. Some men are incapable of playing sports regardless of age. Some are capable well into their advanced years. Gordie Howe personally knocked the shit out of me when he as 62 in a hockey game. I was 2 inches taller, 20 pounds heavier and 34 years younger than he was.)
Anything over 17, send them to the work camps
You can be incapable of playing sports at any age
Just the other day a 42 year old won the men’s 50 meter butterfly at the swimming world championships. He was just .03 seconds off his own world record. He is, by far, the oldest male winner but it goes to show everyone peaks at a different age
When you physically can’t
When you spend more of the season injured than playing would be my bet.
Last couple times I’ve tried playing footy (Aussie rules) I’ve been injured. Either through the sport itself or just in general life. I’ll probably give it one more decent go. If I get injured badly again I may swap to umpiring haha.
Professionally? About 30 for a lot of sports that involve running.
