The Romans had us beat for the most part when it comes to depravity! It is Sunday, so I won't dig up one of my text books and start quoting from it, but they loved the whore houses.

And you are right. As my great aunt once told a single nurse “You know, we know what causes babies now!” Shocked and offended the nurse, but made me laugh! Seems like most people want to screw their brains out, but not accept that makes babies.

I have Suetonius and Ovid on the shelf ;-).

It’s funny that when a couple has a large family, people always say, “Don’t you know what causes that?” However, they’re not suggesting that the couple should remain celibate the rest of their lives ... only that the natural outcome of sex is somehow unexpected or distasteful.

(I like to respond, “Of course. Don’t you?”)
