I do hate to sound like an old codger, but the question itself seems problematic
to me.  The notion of "sexuality," and the equation if it via the phrase "i.e."
to  "sex practices" is a non sequitur, or at best, anachronistic.

But if you wish to contemplate the notion, look carefully at the painting of the
two cats, one of them up in the tree.  Believe it or not, that's an "erotic"
painting.

And then, just wait till you start reading sijo.
