The wiki, simply put, isn't interested in discussing the sexuality or sexual behavior of real people. These topics are often sensitive and/or controversial, especially sexual harassment and rape, and are prone to gossip, natter, or innuendo. Also, it violates our Content Policy, owing to their inherently NSFW or squicky nature and tendency to attract fetish gushing.

NOTE: Please consult the Real Life section maintenance thread if you want to propose adding a trope here.
