Writing smut

For the most part, I've avoided writing any graphic sexual content. It's not that I don't think that there is a place for it, just not in my writing. Mostly it's been because I write about kids and that's just icky and wrong. In the past if I wrote anything sexual it was to show the true horrors of sexual abuse and was never intended to be for arousal.
Now I am writing this adult romance story. Part of me thinks I should cut to the curtains when anything sexual is about to happen, but I wonder if that is the wisest thing to do. I don't want to be known as a person who writes erotica and I don't know if sexual content would be accepted by me since all of the other stuff that I write. It would be classy, would use flowery language instead of crudeness, but I still wonder if I should. I am at a spot in my new story where I could, if I chose, have the ftm character have a masturbatory fantasy. It would fit with the story line and show how he is transforming into a guy (cause guys do nothing but masturbate and watch sports). It could even be fun or at least stretch me to new limits. I'm at a loss. I just don't want to be lumped in with "I was turned into a cum guzzling gutter slut and liked it" writers.
Looking for advice, as my writing quota for today is about up.
