There's an interesting passage in an anthropology book, The Archaeology of Violence, by Pierre Clastres.  The book covers life and culture among pre-agricultural people.  It includes much material from the time Clastres spent living in the jungle with primitive tribes. 

From the book:

It is a civilization of leisure since they spend twenty-one hours
doing nothing. They keep themselves amused. Siestas, practical
jokes, arguments, drugs, eating, taking a dip, they manage to kill
time. Not to mention sex. Which is not to say that that is all they
think about, but it definitely counts. Ya peshi\ This is often heard:
I feel like having sex!... One day, at Mavaca, a man and a woman
struggle on the floor of a house. There are cries, screams, protests,
laughter. The woman, who seems to know what she wants, has
slipped a hand between the man’s legs and grabbed a testicle. At his
slightest move to flee, a slight squeeze. This must hurt, but she
doesn’t let go: “She wants to copulate! She feels like copulating!”
And this, it seems, is indeed what happens.

Would be interesting to know if there are more such stories in that book.

Nope, just that one. But it's an awesome book all the same.
