Japanese Erotic Fantasies in the Edo Period

Albeit it boring, working in a library has some (very seldom mind you) interesting moments. Like today when I noticed an art book sitting next to my boss's desk entitled "Japanese Erotic Fantasies of the Edo Period." If the title wasn't enough to clue even the thickest in, the cover picture certainly would- a picture of a man fingering a woman. Granted you didn't see the action, but you saw pubes and boobs.
Now, unfortunately or unfortunately, I have the curiosity of a cat. Upon perusing through the pages, I have learned a few things:
1. Kimonos are not only fashionable and can shield, but they do provide good services in the Bedroom.
2. This was on the level of kama sutra minus much of the nudity and jewelry.
3. Their hair stayed dead in tact.
4. These Japanese men were packin. I mean, this was cock and lockheart big (cock and lockheart XDDD best doujin name EVER). It was the most detailed thing on the image (although the style of the paintings made it seem really wrinkly), colored differently and everything!!
What I thought was really weird was how the chick during intercourse would be totally expressionless and would lay/sit/bend over/flip/etc and just take it while the guy had some perverse demonic look.
Even weirder, at my second job there was a movie (Japanese also) entitled "Bedroom." (Just to let you guys know, I'm the only girl at my second job, everyone else is 21-26 yr guys) The cover sported a naked Japanese woman holding a knife. The back was even weirder. In one panel, this naked guy was wearing a gas mask and totally gropping this naked chick's ass. The premise of this story: A club was started in which Japanese singles would engage in fetishism with each other, but the male singles would start mutilating and killing the chicks off (homoeroticism anyone??). Kyoko; the heroine, becomes suspicious of her koi, Kei when all the other girls start disappearing... But to discover the truth behind it would be worse than the offense.
I wonder what this horrible truth is... hmmmm..... hummm.....
