There's plenty of sex in older literature, it's just not always as graphic.
Chaucer? Really? He was all about lewd sex jokes and innuendos! Sometimes it just takes some decoding of the language. But he was pretty risque. And if I remember my high school English summer reading correctly, Shakespeare has a couple of sex scenes. Not graphic, over-the-top, romance novel sex. But again, they're there.
