In any language to the word that accounted as obscene or just inapropriate, shameful, uncomfortable or even too banal to say in wide audience you will find a lot of ways to say this word without actually saying this word.
In Russian there are also many ways to say "masturbate", from banal "jerk" to something sophisticated like "to strangle single-eyed serpent".
I'm not shure about as many ways to say "have sex" as in English, but it is a lot, may be less weird than you typed. Also, for example, there are definitely more that hundred ways to say "die", from majestic "give soul to God" to weird "put shoes into the corner". Or for the word "eat". Or "sleep". And so on.
The "little death" that suggests a link between orgasm and sex.
And OP missed a big one...
Why is it that "oh God" is a common utterance during orgasm? Is it because one is reaching the "highest point"? I floored an ex-girlfriend bringing that up as a good piece of evidence for the existence of God LOL. Even atheists say it. Pretty odd thing to say for them.

Also, there is la petite mort from French...
