It has long been academic consensus that sex was invented in 1972 by Mrs Deirdre Sex, a fitter-and-joiner’s wife from Clapton-on-Sea, Rutland. The recent discovery of an extant product catalogue dated to 1924, detailing publications depicting certain acts previously thought unknown in the inter-war period, has challenged this belief and created a rift in contemporary debate. We take neither side in this affair, but merely reproduce the text of the catalogue, that the facts may be generally known.
