In fact I suspect it's even easier than that. With the right sort of grip on the matter, a tricky two body problem becomes a much simpler single body problem. So to speak.

Why not? Most people are looking for sex online and offline to. So, it would be very nice to see "Space sex guide" :) After all, in next few years we could go to space also :P OK, they are all professionals, scientists and they don’t think about sex in space.

Sex for procreation that the article is focusing on, imho, should be only attempted in a sufficient gravity situation as who knows apart from what has been researched from animals, the need for gravity in gestation for species viability. Humans born on Mars will have weaker bone structures development and may end up taller. Like on Star Trek all persons involved in space exploration work should voluntarily take birth control or have reversible surgery and saved frozen eggs/sperm.

All those men in space together could be jacking each other off for all we know and laughing about their floating spooge (ejaculate). There's hand manipulation for female orgasm. Both partners can find ways to secure themselves. Then there could be consenting groupsex with helping supportive hands. What dumb Bonobos we are.

Let's not forget there was a short story in the 1960s or 1970s by Pierre Boulle (who was an engineer before he turned to writing) about the problems of sex in zero gravity. I'm no longer sure of the title, or which collection of his it was in (Time Out of Mind</i>, perhaps?), but it was the first such story I remember. Vive la France! Hey!
