I write erotica, among other things. There are many resources you could use. Some books are especially for authors on how to write erotic scenes in fiction, but don't overlook the nonfiction sex books. Stargate just begs to have the boys find an alien Kama Sutra, so it helps to know the original.

Kink books are very helpful for setting the scene and practical details.
