Yes, it was the Cathars. I do sort of sympathize with them, by the way. They seemed to be rather peaceful, and the way they were eventually slaughtered was rather uncalled for.

As far as I remember, any kind of sex was considered evil, not just non-procreative (which would be really hard to perform, I suspect, because they had almost no effective contraception).

I think they were unusual in that oral and anal sex were considered no worse than PIV sex. I believe that the Middle English word-ancestor of "bugger" denoted an Albigensian Cathar.

As medieval religious sects go, the Cathars were pretty harmless and they definitely did not deserve to get gruesomely Crusaded at.

Which would be really hard to perform, I suspect, because they had almost no effective contraception.

I was actually just reading about the Cathars yesterday, weirdly enough. O_o The were first thought to come from "Bulgaria", , which meant they were called Bulgres, and that word was turned by the Church in to the French Bougre and English Bugger.

In other words, they were thought to practice "buggery"/sodomy.

And even if they didn't, back-door sex was known to prevent children, and was used surreptitiously as a way for people to have sex without having to worry about children. There were also several different plants/herbs that could stop the egg from attaching to the womb/to act like a spermicide/to induce an abortion. So, there were methods of effective contraception.
