I suggest this alternative and much more minimal patch, which only
removes the most unnecessary references to "sex" (replacing it with
"meme", which is what most of the internet is about these days) but
keeps the reference to something as innocuous as a "date" (which in
standard American English could mean just having dinner) and "naughty"
(which according to Merriam-Webster means "engaging in or marked by
childish misbehavior").

If this is acceptable, I suggest installing this and moving on.
