We dehumanise our sex partners and in turn we are dehumanised by them. There is always a power struggle to turn people into bitches and studs. It's a power struggle that is played out in the bedroom but we feel spills over into real life.
In Oglaf the characters talk to each other, argue and compromise and at some point sex happens. But the fact that the characters can communicate at all shows some acknowledgement of each other's humanity. They the characters may not get along, they may hate each other but at they're stand with each other is at least level enough that there CAN be a conflict.
And sex is generally seen as something fun. It's not a tool of slaver or a way to mindbreak someone, it's something everyone wants because sex is great.
But I think most of all the characters are straight forward with each other. It's for comedic value but it ends up adding a sense of sincerity to the characters, a trait that is so often lost in our scramble for sex and status.
It's innocent because it lacks all the bullshit we pile onto sex as we grow older. It's direct and human, things we try very hard to avoid as adults. We don't like conflict, we don't like showing our hands. We want our sex partners to be pliable and our place in relationships fixed.
Oglaf is none of that, it's a bunch of kids with their hearts on their sleeves fighting over silly things.
Which,I guess, is still the case in real life, just more convoluted and hateful.
tl;dr
Oglaf is the polar opposite of hardcore hentia and high-brow erotic dramas
