I'm doing it now and enjoying it quite a bit as a slightly tongue in cheek but ultimately sincere homage to old swashbucklers. Duels, twirling the LI, literal one foot on the floor. And the scenes in her quarters are very sweet. I believe she and my Cadash will be quite happy.
That's a better way of putting it.
It's possible because Solas' otherworldliness makes him seem like a fundamentally less sexual being? I'm not attracted to men and couldn't say directly, but that would be my guess.
Going off my feelings and things, *ahem*, posts in the Solas thread I would say it's not that he is viewed as a less sexual being 
I think they were referring to just the OP, who has complained numerous times specifically about the lack of a sex scene in the Josephine thread.
Oh, ok I didn't know that 
F2. The duel is horses*it.
Inquisitor, those aren't rapiers, you idjit.

He strikes me as very sexual, personally. He references it quite a few times, not to mention that every time he smooches Lavellan, he holds on to her butt as if it were a pair of stress balls during a final exam. Maybe Solas just have more juicy fanfiction written about him - female LI's tend to get a lot less.

Ohhh! That didn't even occur to me.
Yeah, I think I read somewhere that mr. Weekes meant for it to be ambiguous so it could be interpreted either way. I think. Don't quote me on that,
The dream lives on, Solavellan fans! 
Solas: He leaves, turns out to be the Dread Wolf, reveals his plan to destroy the world, removes your arm.
Yeah... Solas definitely takes the cake in this particular competition.
There seems to be something of a double standard when it comes to Josie's and Solas's romances. From what I've seen from the Solasmancers they couldn't give a fig less about whenever they got to shag Solas or not, but for Josie it's a big deal.
Weird.
One is primarily romanced by women, who tend not to be vocal about not having a sex scene (whether they actually care or not), and one is primarily romanced by men, who are more vocal. People might get really angry at me now, but that's what I've seen over the course of my life so far.
Maybe it wasn't the smartest thing to challenge a renowned duelist, but since it was not a duel to the death i don't see how it goes completely against everything Josie stands for.

her concern was for the Inquisitor, both the potential for scandal as well as the possibility that the Inquisitor could be badly injured or even killed. Accidents are always possible, after all
Of course, my qunari inquisitor, a battle-hardened warrior-mercenary, probably could have just decked him Mal Reynolds-style, and be done with it ...

He had reason to be confident, then. My Trevelyan mage was a teensy bit more nervous. But, she didn't do too poorly. Maybe they have "duel-with-antivans-in-an-appropriately-dramatic-fashion-for-the-favor-of-your-lady-love" classes in the Circle.

I expected the option to be given during the scene.
Then I discovered that Lord Otranto was a pretty decent guy and was fine with everyone parting on good terms.
I can't help but shake the feeling that the romance was originally designed as one for a straight guy and then expanded out.
I've done her romance as a woman and a man and the whole thing just read so much better to me with a male inquisitor.
While I could do with a lot less Disney and ambiguity in her romance arc, I quite liked the duel scene. I thought it was one of the better romance scenes in the series.
On a side note, I'm hoping Duke Otranto makes an appearance in DA4.
