If it means nothing more than a game of chess, then sure. Personally, it means a great deal, even if it wasn't to lead to a relationship. It's a level of intimacy I wouldn't want to share with someone I found morally repulsive.
Obviously everyone realistically has foibles, so it's a matter of how bigoted. I strive to not be bigoted at all, but I can't be sure I'm succeeding all the time.
Your being unfair here. Sex isn't black and white. Like most issues and most of life it's gray. You can have sex with somebody you never want to see again but that you are attracted to and even carry on a sexual relationship with somebody who's thinking you are very much against. To compare a relationship, be it sexually based or emotionally, to a "game of chess" is cheap.
You'd have cheapened yourself by making the comment if chess wasn't so nuanced. You have to account for many future in chess, and in relationships. I think you maybe seeing it all as a "one night stand" when meaningful, if sexual, relationships can be carried out even when the people in the relationship can't stand each other in "normal" social situations. They enjoy coitus with each other very much, but one might find the other very selfish and the other find the other to be foolish and unambitious.
Point is it's Gray, to blanket it with your on values is ... well whatever it is when you do that.
