Stats that aren't Trans and Awkwardness are more subtle. More specifically, Control and Horniness can overlap to make Zach varying degrees of a more active sexual partner, a more dominant sexual partner, a more submissive sexual partner, or a more passive sexual partner, but it can never make him fully abstain from becoming a sexual partner to the route partner.
Due to many sex scenes being required to advance the plot as pivotal character moments that change Zach's relationship with their route partner (something especially true of the early sex scenes), I do not want to let players to avoid them in-narrative (but as always, there is a setting to skip showing the sex scenes to the player even though they still happen). That proves logistically unworkable as a single-creator to make a choose-your-own-adventure mess instead of a mostly linear visual novel with a few major variances (decision nodes) and countless minor variances (C.H.E.A.T.S. branches) along each distinct route.
Zach has many very good reasons for being inclined to not refusing sex (i.e., the structure of the game he finds himself trapped in, his particular relationship toward all 3 route partners, the genre of the visual novel), but narrative is the biggest reason for this.
