If memory serves correct, Klingon mating involves ritual combat before getting down to business.
Edited to add, yes that is the case -
"Klingon mating rituals"
"It is not uncommon to break multiple bones during Klingon amorous play. In fact, fracturing a clavicle on the wedding night is even considered a blessing on the marriage. Jadzia Dax describes the Klingon mating ritual as the participants "jumping on each other like a pair of crazed voles." While some, such as Dax, found this exciting, others, such as Quark, found it particularly intimidating.
(DS9: "Looking for par'Mach in All the Wrong Places"; VOY: "Blood Fever") Speaking about Klingon courtship and marriage, Martok once noted that no one can be in control of who they fall in love with. (DS9: "You Are Cordially Invited")
Worf jokingly described Klingon mating to Wesley Crusher as involving the male reading love poetry while ducking the furniture thrown by the female. (TNG: "The Dauphin") Because of his traditional Klingon values, Worf, in general, took mating much more seriously than his partners did, much to his chagrin and theirs. (TNG: "The Emissary", "Hide and Q"; DS9: "Penumbra")"
