""Conjugal Lewdness Or Matrimonial Whoredom: A Treatise Concerning The Use And Abuse Of The Marriage Bed"" by Daniel Defoe is a controversial book that discusses the topic of sex within marriage. Written in the 18th century, the book explores the various aspects of sexual relationships between married couples, including the proper use of the marriage bed, the importance of mutual pleasure, and the dangers of infidelity. Defoe argues that sex is a natural and necessary part of marriage, but also cautions against excessive lust and debauchery. The book is written in a frank and explicit style, and includes advice on sexual positions, contraception, and the treatment of sexually transmitted diseases.
