Yes but that doesn't mean that you should have sex just because of that!

Sex does burn calories, and it's not necessarily because you are moving. It's your whole hormonal response, heart rate, and blood flow which makes you use more calories than normal. But it cannot be used as an efficient weight loss program. The reason is the same as with weight training. And it is caused by your training partner. Sometimes your partner is tired or has a headache, and skips a "workout", and then you're left alone to workout by yourself, which is even less than half the fun (and effectiveness).

Depends how much you do it. It is a form of exercise and I remember a magazin ( reader's digest?) suggesting that it was a good way to stay in shape for older people, so it can't be all that bad... I suppose it would also depend on how active you are during the act.

It takes energy and you can burn upto 200 calories while doing it. So if you're eating the same but having more sex than before, you will lose weight.

It depends how much sex your having. If its all the time then yes, if its not then no. the more you do it the more weight you will loose.

Of course. Even chewing gum can help you burn an additional 10 calories an hour. But all of you should check this page on sex and calorie burning out, it's hilarious:

Hey there!!
It sure does---it's a great workout, and if you have sex for 1 hour, you can actually burn off calories that are equivalent to one hot dog, with the bun! Pretty cool, huh?

Having sex does make you lose weight. But noone wants to have sex with a fat person.

yes, sex is a good work out. not only do you want to do it often but you also make many muscles stronger as well. u can even pull muscles during sex.

Yes, it is exercise. The more you do it, the more you will lose weight. Much better than the gym.
