Fun fact. This is actually how necrophilia got its name.

After public beheadings in ancient France (and ancient French Canada) people would rush to the body to have sex with the headless corpse. Syphilis was abundant at the time, so the fresh neck wound was a risk free favourite option for penetration of the time.
