Abstract

In all cultures, sexuality and eroticism have been of interest because of the importance they have for human behavior, despite the burden of taboos and limitations imposed by society. From the oldest cultures, the human being has shared a sexual behavior that cultural patterns have been in charge of shaping and permeating. Hence, different human groups have built different and multiple ways of assuming eroticism.
