I'm such an outlier! I barely answered your questions because I was arguing with each one.
Nowadays I sometimes skip sex scenes because over the years I have become more interested in plot and less interested in the sex. But it depends on my mood and the characters. There are now a bunch more fandom characters whose sex lives don't interest me at all. Their relationships interest me, but not the actual sex. Is this menopause talking? I am not sure. Maybe it's just that I spent over a decade readinga ll the porny slash I could find, and a bunch of other kinds of porn too. In fanfic, I mean. I read a bit of pro erotica but fan writing is really good.
You know, it never occurred to me to think about OT3 as a SOLUTION to a love triangle. Am I naive? Or just experiencing tunnel vision?
Effective sex scenes were no harder to write FOR ME than any other kind of scenes, but I have often read that other writers find them hard.

Boy, that got long.
