Yes, you are.
Recognizing that women in general have less physical strength than men in general isn't sexist.
Thinking that "women shouldn't play rugby" because of it is sexist.
To me, the difference is that you're thinking a particular woman is physically weaker than a particular (or any) man, and therefore shouldn't do something. But there are plenty of women who are physically stronger than plenty of men.
For instance, despite how strong I am, I have absolutely no doubt that most women who body-build are stronger than I am.
Saying that they shouldn't play rough sports, but that it's perfectly fine for me to, is just plain sexist.
