It is considered that the subjective efforts of women are the main driving force of upward flow (change of class status). When the social flow changes their original social status, their sports participation (time, place, partners) will change to some extent, but their sports values (value orientation) and preference are basically kept unchanged. The three properties of learning, imitation and dissemination of physical education make it have the transmission function. The influence of parents on the sports that women like and participate in persistently shows the possibility of inter-generational transmission of sports, and there is no significant difference between classes in the aspect.
