Bad news, everyone: I did some further research on a particular folk tale, and had to conclude that the tale about a dwarven sex party was actually about a dwarven _wedding_.
In my defense, the alternative meaning of "kopulieren" is no longer in use in modern German.
@juergen_hubert Do you have a link to that particular tale?
Yeah, the original German text is here:

@juergen_hubert I thought they were synonymous.
I think the modern form is "verkuppeln" instead of "kopulieren".
@juergen_hubert Ah, sorry for my feeble and unclear attempt at a joke 😅 I meant that I thought a dwarven wedding and a dwarven sex party were synononymous.
