  not sure why the community would see that as a problem
If someone is learning martial arts, you might see that as a demanding sport, for tough serious athletes, demanding discipline, hard work and self-control.

Or you might see it as playing at being Bruce Lee. Hiiii-Ya!

Needless to say, the former perspective implies more respect for the people doing it!

But there's not a bright line between 'serious' activities and non-serious ones - and hence, not much a sport can do to choose where on the spectrum they lie.
