Likely some other woman told him that saying f@cking was crass and let’s have sex was too generic or boring.

Yes. Please find some real problems to occupy your time. Or a hobby, perhaps.

He is a romantic person. He is showing you respect. You are "making love" to a person you love. You are having sex with OR fu**ing a bi*ch.

*shudder*
A nice "let's have sex" removes all the imagery of "making love" like some hairy guy with a rose in his mouth on silk sheets trying to be seductive. I can see someone like Will Ferrel using that phrasing. That's my personal issue, maybe op feels something similar?
I admit it's my issue though. Similar to "panties", others find it off putting because it evokes something for them (I actually don't know what) but since it simply describes a feminine garment, I have no issue with it.

It's a soppy euphemism.

People's vernacular and word usage varies, that's OK. It's OK for him to say the phrase and ok for you to clue him in on your finding it distasteful (he is your bf).
There are tons of words I find gross (especially those used to replace anatomical names). I find them so uncouth, yet people bold facedly use them comfortably and I chalk it up to their culture. I am not going to tell a friend "Just say breasts!" but I would not hold back on correcting a partner.

Curious what he wants you to call it?

I am older and agree with this. But I'm not a hearts and roses kind of person.

Observe gentleman; there is nothing you can possibly do right, so please enjoy yourself for as long as you can then move on the moment you get the feeling that this nonsense is starting
