Let's put this another way. Write a story where we jump forward 10 years.
Akane & Ranma have 3 kids. THEY HAD TO HAVE HAD SEX. Is it a lemon? No.
So, the answer must be, if you don't show the sex, if it happens 'off
camera', it's not a lemon.

Where is the line currently defined? For example, in part 2 of
December's End fanfic I have Tofu and Kasumi lying together naked in bed in
the morning, but I have the sex occuring between episodes 1 and 2.
Does being together in this manner count as lemon? Does the leadup to a
sexual situation count as lemon even if there is no sexual activity (e.g.
Nodoka dragging Genma into a "love hotel", episode ?) described?
