A person's awkwardness around sex, both in the activity itself and the various communication and courtship rituals surrounding it, do not easily change. Both awkwardness and lack of awkwardness are difficult to fake. Therefore, these are likely to be things people discriminate by, social class markers. How does it play out? Which social classes behave which way? How is awkwardness or lack of awkwardness developed or taught?
This explains things like resistance to sex ed (also this) and shame in promiscuity.
