The past sucked. The present sucks too, but the past sucked. We can still do better, but we could do worse too and I think that's important to consider when trying to avoid going back to that, but crucially, we really shouldn't want to go back, because - in case the point hasn't been emphasised enough - the past sucked.
(But not in the fun way. Probably. Actually, do we have any records on the topic of fellatio? I'd not be surprised in the least if the past contained quite some sucking in that sense too.)

I wonder if, one day, a future historian will get to answer the question "Do we have evidence for Furries in the early digital age?"
lmao, we actually have quite a bit on the topic of fellatio. Let me grab an old now-public-domain source I have, it's on the Classical world specifically, but you might enjoy it if you can endure the hoity-toity 19th century tone
