Interestingly, Bruce's muggle-centric issues don't conflict with the Clark/Bruce pairing - not just because his hatred of metas is less than that of magic, as metas can be basically understood, but because Clark himself is ashamed of his powers on some level and to some degree - at the very least he's no less concerned by them, which has probably a lot to do with why Bruce is able to be so comfortable with him.
The other thing is, while obviously editorial sexual mores play a part, I think even without them you'd still have the problem, because I don't think Bruce, as a character, could ever be comfortable interacting with Diana that way. Selina, yes, Talia, yes; they're Bad Girls who use sex as a deception or like a weapon, and Bruce is comfortable with weapons and deceit. Sex as a toy, shared by two friends, would freak his ass right out and I can't see him not seeing it as disrespectful to the woman he's with.
