How public was sex in 1800s America?
Upvote:8
"Sex is a private affair" is one of the Human Universals. IOW, most people in most cultures strongly prefer to do it in privacy.
"One-room home" has been the dominant arrangement throughout human history for purely economic reasons. Believe it or not, it was relatively common in the late USSR for 3 generations to share a single room, often separated into semi-private annexes by sheets and/or wardrobes.
This contradiction was resolved by keeping sex to night time, when the kids were, presumably, asleep.
