There is a reference in Herodotus to a man not having sex in the usual way with his wife, to try to prevent pregnancy. I'm not aware of any commentary on what that might be alluding to - and the focus of the passage was less sex, and more trying to prevent a negative prophecy.
(Modern minds might go straight to anal. Actually, Greek MM relationships tended to be intercrural - between the thighs) |

It is the stereotype. It's historically inaccurate.
