I've no problem with sex etc in my games . . . I don't RP the actual getting down and dirty though cause that's just plain creepy. Currently part of the main story arc of my current campaign has evolved from one characters I'll considered dalliance. I also like dicking players around a bit, like the 'he-man' dwarf. To his credit he took finding out that his missing older brother was homosexual and that said brothers lover was an elf (the reason said brother had gone missing, self imposed exile Oscar Wilde style) in his stride pretty well (the whole thing was a minor tribute to the late Richard Griffiths with the older brother being firmly modelled in his Uncle Monty character from Withnail & I). However the murder hobos have pulled into a town with a substantial brothel - I know that's where they'll head . . . I need to figure out how to RP a liaison that involves him discovering that the dwarf courtesan is just a scam (Female dwarves in my world have beards and said courtesan is just a short human with false beard) without having to get all blow by blow with the RP so to speak (maybe I'm just a closet prude but I'm not really sure exactly how to approach it comfortably) Aaron PS: just a quick clarification, as many of my friends are homosexual I have always run campaign worlds with an incidence of homosexuality greater than just mere novelty value - as well as open attitude (bit like in Spartacus the TV series: sexual preference doesn't dictate character). The Uncle Monty character wasn't a dick around because he was homosexual . . . It was his choice of an elf as a life partner.

Personally I'd have him go into the room with his "dwarf" and then pass him a note telling him that as they start to get down and dirty he pulls to hard on her beard, tearing it off and revealing the charade. That lets him start to yell, shout, or storm out of hte room, his reaction being the start of the RP for that perhaps with your NPC chasing after him, or being chased by him depending on how play out.
I actually did something similiar with my party when they wandered into a brothel looking for information. When one went off to a room I glossed over it to the party and wrote him a short note telling him what information he got. Of course just for laughs I made him roll a few athletics and acrobatics rolls before hand and told the party they heard various sounds based on his roll.
Nothing graphic, more comedic value, and they all looked at him funny when he came back downstairs.

Though I don't generally write games where sex is at issue, this is very much how I handle it. We'll just gloss over the details and deal with the ramifications of it.
Cheers,

If it applies to the story, use it. If it doesn't then skip it.
