Dunno, I've only written one sex scene (and that was a joyful romp
between inexperienced teenagers who were very much in love), one
almost-sex scene (right up to the line of asterisks) and two passes
made at my protagonist, of which she didn't even notice the more subtle
one.

I can't imagine myself writing bad sex *at all*, though.
