Discussing articles on the subject of intimacy

Q: On the internet there are many articles written by non-Muslims on the subject of intimacy - specifically ways of satisfying the wife - hundreds of articles that deal with the biology of a women and her private organs.

What is the Islamic perspective on this? Is this going too extreme and out of the bounds of modesty?

A: Obviously, mankind has been living on this earth for thousands of years. In all this time, there was no need to discuss these types of matters. What is the sudden need to talk about these types of intimate issues?

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
