Maybe it was insinuated, but only neo and trinity are having sexual relations in that scene. Everyone else is dancing around. Hot. Sweaty. Human. Not machine.
The shots specifically of the feet sweating onto the ground is very symbolic.
I'm lifting this analysis from elsewhere, so I'll link it at the end:
*"The feet on the ground means that Zion is on Earth. Plain and simple. This parallels the Architect scene, and gets to the main thesis. We are cast out of the "perfection" of Heaven and living in the Real World. Symbolically, the Matrix is Heaven. Cypher makes this point in the first movie. The Real World is hard, dirty, and uncomfortable. The Matrix is, well, paradise. This point is made again in the first movie by Agent Smith, who calls the Matrix "the perfect human world" [paraphrased]. Recall that the Architect scene happens in utterly clean, utterly white perfection."*
*"The Biblical reference is clear enough. Neo, Trinity, Morpheus, and the rest of Zion have rejected God's Garden of Eden where all their needs are taken care of in favor of a hard, scrabbling existence where at least they have free will."*

I'm telling you guys, these movies are way more legit than you realize, whether you comedically trivialize them or not.
