    In my early twenties with a new partner sex was definitely a real calorie burner for me, so much so that I got really skinny and my friends worried I wasn't eating enough :D but like everything else, with age we've got super efficient (lazy?) and can get the job done with minimal effort.

    Or maybe you're choosing the activity over food?

    I don't think logging everyday activities such as sex, housecleaning, shopping, gardening, etc. should be credited as exercise. Way to easy to mess up a deficit. I do think it's a good question though.

    I looked it up thru the search engine on my computer and it says men burn about 100 calories from start to finish where as women only burn roughly 68 calories

    So your doctor was wrong--it's not good cardio. Facepalm.
