I mean, sometimes I go for a bike ride because the sun is out and the wind feels good on my face; other times I go out because I'm trying to beat my fastest time on a 40 km course. Now I don't know about you but for me, sex is pleasant and enjoyable, but doesn't have any specific performance goals. I mean, as far as I know, nobody makes a sensor that measures your thrust rate per minute like people do with running cadence.
I think in theory this is probably supposed to be part of your general activity level. I doubt most people fill out their MFP profile and say "Well I bump uglies five times a week so that means I'm not sedentary."
Also, I think the way most people who aren't me do it, it's really not that much of a workout anyway. I've heard some horror stories.

For some it's a quick sprint and not a marathon to be considered a workout...lol0

Because most guys wouldn't burn many calories in 20 seconds.

Now that I read it, it sounds a bit "mood killer" and creepish, a lot of folks went right to the moment for data, I was kinda thinking the after thought of the act0 -
Do you pump full out for an hour without a break or slowing down? Because that would be at most 300 calories. It's counted in your TDEE. This question has been asked many times before,0

"Indoor cardio."
Well, sometimes outdoor cardio. Maybe it's a "lap" in the hike.0 -
It's part of your normal daily activity level. Or did you add this as purposeful exercise when you began to lose weight?0

Just enter 50 reps of wrist curls...or however long it took you.3

Apperently sex for so many minutes is equivalent to a 5 mile jog... no wonder I weight a lot... XD0

Because according to a study, the average length of sex is 5.4 minutes. That's hardly worth recording. Just consider it a bonus.

If I were on top and we banged for two straight hours, I STILL wouldn't burn as many calories as I do during a five mile jog.
For everyone who really, REALLY needs to know how many calories you're burning during sex, here you go:
