And I suspect that she would have been thinking about that from a Vulcan perspective, which would consider any uncontrolled emotions as a sign of immaturity. What she should have said was "ill-suited for an interspecies relationship with a Vulcan".
And I chuckle quietly to myself when I consider why T'Pol would have been thinking about the possibility of a human/vulcan relationship.

You've lived among humans for quite some time now, Sub-commander. I'm curious, have you ever known them to mate outside their species? Ah! There it is.
T'POL: Are you asking out of personal interest or scientific curiosity?
PHLOX: Both, I suppose. There's a crewman on board I've become close with. I think she's attracted to me.
T'POL: In my experience, humans lack the emotional maturity for interspecies relationships. They tend to be easily infatuated with things they find new. This crewman may simply be satisfying her curiosity at your expense.
PHLOX: Open.
PHLOX [OC]: Sub-commander T'Pol has a very pragmatic feel of the universe. I admire her logic although she lacks the instinctiveness that a more emotional response can provide. Somehow, I find this unsettling.
PHLOX: There. That wasn't so bad. Thanks for your insights.
T'POL: Be careful.

Taking her words at their most literal meaning she's not saying it's a fact when a Vulcan has sex with someone they automatically bond. Only that some people believe that it happens.

Future Tense wrote:{Daniel's quarters]
T'POL: A database from the future?
ARCHER: Our time-travelling friend Daniels left it in his quarters.
(undoes the lock and goes in)
T'POL: I'm not certain Daniels would approve of this.
ARCHER: We'll keep it to ourselves.
(starts up the holographic database projector)
T'POL: A Vulcan cruiser. I don't recognise the configuration.
ARCHER: That's because it hasn't been built yet.
T'POL: Few Vulcans have ever chosen to mate with another species.
ARCHER: Worried about contaminating your genome with a little human DNA?
T'POL: There are significant biological differences between the species. It's unlikely we could reproduce. Humans and Vulcans.
ARCHER: (searching for the TARDIS) That could be it.
T'POL: The dorsal section is the wrong shape.
ARCHER: (carries on scrolling through) If a human and a Vulcan did have a child, I wonder if he'd have pointed ears. There. I think that's it. Look at the commission date. That's almost nine hundred years from now. Daniels talked about historians from the future. People who traveled back to study the past. That could be what this pilot was doing.

Absolutely true. Only in this case, it makes no sense that she was referring to the process of becoming mated to Trip because they never got that far.
...
So in that instance I believe she can only be referring to their physical mating.
