I'd be surprised if someone hadn't written something explicit about them somewhere, particularly in the Roman period, but again I don't think anything has survived.

I wouldn't call it explicit, but one of the surviving fragments of Aeschylus's The Myrmidons has Achilles speak of "many kisses" and "the holy union of our thighs," the latter being a reference to intercrural sex.
