It is a question of informed consent. This obviously precludes children and animals etc. If those involved agree and know what's involved, then even if it would disgust me, I really couldn't object.
However, the above is more to do with ethics and not morals. Morality is a series of personal judgements and can't be defined as easily.

I think it's immoral for people to get other people in bed under false pretenses. Saying that they are are big when they are so small that it makes you want to cry! LOL
Seriously I think sexual behavior is immoral when you rape someone. Any kind of rape is immoral and should have more serious punishments for committing them then we have now!

For a quick response, i feel that sexual behavior becomes immoral when the sex becomes degrading to any one person taking place in the act.

The Bible stats that all sex is sacred between married couples. Except, for the act of sodomy. This is the belief many people live by but the problem with America is that with the rise of social statis and media overview, we begin to copy the acts of he wealthy or more popular people. This is just an act of trying to fit in. Because in the mind of a lot of people is that the more friends you have he better your life actually is. That is unfortunate because most of the people we symbolize happen to be mere acquaintances instead of friends. Thus making things seem to be more relevant and helping to lose all sacredness of the act of sex. Making sex into a game instead of a showing of love.

If at least one of the people involved is not a consenting (human) adult, or if at least one of the participants is breaking a commitment, e.g. to a (different) partner or a vow of celibacy. Also if one of the participants knowingly endangers the other without telling them, e.g. because he/she has an STD.

When it is not done between two (or more) consenting adults it is immoral. It is also immoral if done in the presence of someone who is not a consenting adult.

If it involves deception (this includes cheating), disrespect, cruelty, demeaning someone, or of course, anything coersive, non-consensual, or with someone who cannot consent (this is the part that includes children).
Any sex that is not done with the intent to please and show affection with complete communication and trust between partners.

When it is done in public in the presence of small children, this would include sex between heterosexuals or gays either one.
