They also don't mention time spent pooping and peeing. Doesn't mean it's taboo. Might just not be useful information to track, unless you're trying to have children or to check how your sex life was affected after already having children.

Love and relationships and as part of those sex are such an integral part of life. It seems odd it's such a taboo in tech to discuss, or in this case measure it as part of a life log.
It simply isn't true that love, relationships, and sex are an integral part of life. It's true for many people, but definitely not for everyone. Lots of people are single. Many are celibate (for whatever reason).

I don't think there's a taboo regarding sex and relationships in tech. People can discuss whatever they want. OP is free to choose whether to log (or share) their sex data.

So is pooping. Nothing prevents you from tracking your sex life but I would never do it and especially not put it out there in a public blog post.
Their point is that actually no, it's not similar. I won't call pooping an integral part of life.
A few days without it, and I bet you'll find it pretty integral.
