I've literally seen historical tentacle porn prints in an Asian art museum. It is wild.
Citations please, for research of course.
I tried to find it, but I'm not in a good position up search right now lol. However! I believe I saw it in San Francisco's Asian Art Museum. Maybe another, slightly less compromised Lemming can source it, haha.

TIL
Fun fact: That's the same artist as the famous The Great Wave off Kanagawa painting.
There's probably more, but that's certainly one.
The same museum also has more soft core erotica art from that era.
If my memory doesn't lie to me then the person that painted this very popular wave art made tentacle art as well.
Oh right! https://hero-magazine.com/article/183116/hokusai
Google sent me here and now I'm on a list. Lol
