Stunt/actress here.

Some scenes call for what’s known as a “chastity pillow,” which is a thin layer of padding that acts as a barrier between the performers. Other sets use patches/stickers over female body parts and a sock type garment to cover male parts.

Additionally, there is an entire branch of direction called intimacy choreography that works with these types of scenes. Anything from a kiss to a rape scene can be choreographed and carefully directed to ensure the actors are safe, comfortable, and look good on camera. One of the last indie films I did called for a make out scene, all of which was delicately choreographed, including hand placement, angling, kissing, eye contact, and more. It’s a fascinating branch of direction.
