I take your point about the s in sex. Zee it shall be!

I'm going to stick with the x though... Although you are correct, I suspect that difference may be a little fine for most US natives to master right off the bat.

Remember in German it is Sex (for sex) and sechs (for six), emphasizing the zee sound would only reinforce the problem!!

It's all in the x!!  Go with the ch as in the Scottish word Loch.  That might be enough to help most US natives.
