"Intimacy" is used as a euphemism for sex, bruh.

Passion and intimacy were not associated with infidelity. This suggests that the quality and frequency of sex or emotional closeness alone do not necessarily deter infidelity.

It's not. The article says they surveyed intimacy with the question "How close are you to your partner?”

I'm sure the actual study says more. Usually the questions about sex are directly about sex, unless the surveyor is very uptight.
