Lovecraft seemed loathe to write about sexual acts in his fiction, but sex and miscegenation are a foundational part of his mythos. From the twisted, mind-swapped sex implied in his "Thing on the Doorstep" to the breeding of Innsmouth folk with undersea creatures, the Cthulhu Mythos is rife with doin' the dirty, even if it's offscreen! A discussion that would shiver Lovecraft's timbers, but it's no mistake that his cosmic horror relies on the "act".
