Yes, I'm afraid pornography is not a new concept either, as some would say. Obviously technology means that we now have photographs of the acts rather than paintings, and in some people's eyes that means the pornography of old was 'art' but that's naive.

Again (because I'm a classical scholar) I site the pottery of Greece and Rome as examples of ancient pornography, and let me tell you there was a hell of a lot of it! In widely bisexual times, you can't tell me that nude sculptures of beautiful young men such as 'The Kritios Boy' were not appreciated for their arousing qualities as well as for thei artistic merits....
