Doing It Since 490 B.C.E

Do you ever worry that your sexual proclivities are something modern and new-fangled, that would horrify your ancestors? Well worry not. Human beings have been kinky and horny since time immemorial. 

Take for example impact play and BDSM, we have archaeological evidence of people taking part in this kink as early as 490 B.C.E! The Etruscan “Tomb of the Whipping” shows detailed frescoes of a threesome that would make Christian Grey himself blush. 

Academics suggest that these images were partially served to ward off demons and evil spirits from disturbing those at rest in the tomb (The Archaeologist, 2023). I put forward the arguably simpler suggestion that the person whose tomb it is probably just enjoyed a bit of sado-masochism. (I speak not only as a humble Funtasia Sexpert, but as someone with a degree in Archaeology and Ancient History)
