I'll add some more for both sexes:

Fear of HR violations in the workplace.

A good portion of people are morbidly obese. That hinders attraction and expression.

The modern inability to escape your past, leading to timid behaviour (in many endeavors).

The modern ability to find previous lovers of your partner, leading to jealousy and other emotions.

I’m curious how HR violations affect people having sex
People are afraid to flirt at the office to gauge mutual attraction because if it lands flat, there's a perception that HR could be involved. I'm certain that most rebuffed flirting doesn't involve HR when the person takes the hint. Still, nobody is too sure nowadays, especially since we've been generally taught to believe the person who complains.
