Whenever people suggest that 21st-century content (namely that distributed through TV, but also in books) is somehow uniquely lascivious, I know they have not read any popular late-medieval or Renaissance literature. Anyone who has read Boccaccio's Decameron or even parts of Chaucer's Canterbury Tales, such as the Miller's Tale, is purged of any imagined celibate medieval period.

Sex is not new, which means humans have been doing it (!), thinking about it, and talking/writing about it for a long time.
