There are quite a few movies out there that have given us some interesting sex scenes. But before that, there were many taboos that had to be broken down. Back in 1915, there was the first sighting of full-frontal nudity in Hypocrites. In 1933, Hedy Lamarr depicted the first female orgasm on screen in a non-pornographic scene in Ecstasy.
Not too long ago, you couldn't see couples in the same bed together on television. In 1971's Carnal Knowledge, audiences finally saw the first condom on screen. And now, movies have grown so comfortable with depicting sexuality on screen that there have been many different takes on it.
These sex scenes are sometimes played for comic relief and can be pretty outlandish. We've previously acknowledged these realistic scenes that captured how awkward, exciting and loving sex can be. But the realistic part is also coming from the technology, and the lengths actors will go to give a good performance. This means some scripted movies and TV shows are starting to rival porn.
According to The Daily Mail, Game of Thrones is having this very problem: so many of their sex scenes are on Pornhub and they are pursuing legal action to take them down. But the HBO show isn't the only show or movie to be appreciated on porn websites.
So what else in entertainment is so hot you might want to get your rocks off to? Fifty Shades of Grey might come to mind, but there are so many more hot scenes.
We've gathered 20 GIFs from the hottest sex scenes in movie history. These GIFs are definitely NSFW and could make you blush. Not only do these movies have saucy moments, but they have interesting stories you should check out on your private movie night.
