If I had to ...

It would depend on your plot. If you have characters who are a married couple who live together, it's kind of understood that they have sex, especially if there are children. You could easily have occasions when they go to bed together at night and smile affectionately at one another in the morning.

As a reader of both mystery novels and romances, I much prefer this to more detailed descriptions of what people are actually doing with their body parts. The romances I like are about people's falling in love and getting to the point of marriage, not about what they do once they're married.

There’s two types of home scenes that I dislike intensely while viewing a tv program or a movie. Those are the ones that have overly long sex scenes or the family dining scenes where people talk about so-called important topics while shoveling forkfuls of chow into their gaping maws. I find both disgusting. A typical love scene should last no longer than one minutes worth of viewing. Ditto for the family eating scenes.
