Private matters/ intimate affairs

Matters of intimacy.

("Rabbi Yochanan said: Although they say there is no mourning on the Festival, yet matters of privacy apply" - Ketubot 4a, and likewise: "Since our rule is that private matters apply, such as marital relations, washing in hot water, and uncovering the head—all these are prohibited in mourning, even on Shabbat" - Commentary on the Mishna by Rambam, Tractate Moed Katan, Chapter 3.)
