When and why did sex become so taboo?

Sex occurs in nature; all animals engage in it and some even do it for pleasure, so when did humans decide to shame each other and themselves about it? When and why did we start developing taboos? And, bonus question, where did kinks and fetishes come from?

The Bible provides the explanation of the fall of man, which I think metaphorically represents the time when humans invented a concept of good v evil, but what other theories are out there?
