Years ago, I was on Klonopin. I took about 2 mg every day for about 4 years. When I saw your post, I thought, "oh, no I didn't have any sexual side effects". But, then I thought about it again. I had fights with my spouse about that back then. So, yes, it did effect me in that area and it didn't get better until I got off of it.

Surprisingly it had the opposite effect on me. Perhaps my mind was able to slow down enough to pay attention to the sex rather than worrying about what might happen during it.

Different strokes for different folks. - And my apology in advance for the analogy.

Some deterioration, but not as bad as the denom SSRIs.

No negative side effects for me in that area. My libido has increased, since adding Klonopin.
I also take Lexapro and that dulled my libido. Also made climax Very difficult. Easier when someone is giving me a hand (pun intended).
