As a followup to called Gay Sex Scenes that Made Movie History. A delightfully naughty exploration of firsts and foresk- ... er, foremosts in terms of gay male intimacy on the silver screen, it celebrated some of the films that blew the celluloid closet to bits, one modesty sock at a time. AfterElton has the Full List of Gay Sex Scenes from Modern Movies.
20. BearCity (2010)
This sex comedy set in the world of ursine-identified gay men offers plenty of eye candy. But the most notable scene is one where a heftier fella and his younger boyfriend - who loves his man's size - get frisky. It's refreshing to see a gay film objectify something other than the presumed physical ideal.

19. Shortbus (2006)
John Cameron Mitchell's real sex experiment was a mixed bag, but when it worked it managed to get to some real truths about sex and intimacy. One of the most notable scenes featured a three-way between a gay couple (Paul Dawson and PJ Deboy) and a new friend (Jay Brannan) that is at once sexy, thrilling, awkward, charming, and hilarious. Plus, when's the last time you saw a man sing "The National Anthem" into another man's backside? Actually, don't answer that - let's keep a little mystery, shall we? |

18. Shank (2008)
Oh my. Certainly not for everyone, Shank sets out to shock and appall from the opening scene, where two men do drugs in a car and have sex in the woods before one beats and robs the other. It kind of goes downhill from there. But at the center of this maelstrom of sex, sadism and misery is a frank love scene between the central thug and his new lover. Unfortunately, though, the film is most notable for its violent and disturbing climax, where the antihero is raped by his best friend while his lover is forced to watch. Notable if only for showing just how low things can go.

17. Dream Boy (2008)
This slight coming-of-age indie already feels a bit dated, but the first love scene between its central characters - two men coming of age in the American South - is tender and true. Bonus: It takes place on a schoolbus, fulfilling the fantasies of millions of former rural schoolboys everywhere.

16. Eyes Wide Open (2009)
This tale of forbidden love within the community of Orthodox Jews in Israel is a wonderfully slow burn, beautifully capturing the many cultural forces and personal issues at work when two men fall in love in a world entirely opposed to it. The first love scene between the two men is notable because they are both completely clothed - not that it diminishes the intensity of the scene in the least.

15. Chillerama (2011, Segment: "I Was a Teenage Werebear")
Werebear is interesting for several reasons. First, it's a full-on gay romance set inside an otherwise totally straight (and at some points aggressively so) horror/comedy anthology film. Second, it stars gay porn actor Brent Corrigan (as Sean Paul Lockhart) in his first starring non-sex role. And it's also a musical. While mid-grade raunch is the name of the game in this splatter comedy, there is a gay sex scene to be had as well, when the main werebear gets bloody revenge on a locker room bully by... um... raping him to death. Okay, that's awful, but it's actually not as horrific as it sounds - and as the inspiration for the film was crappy teen beach horror movies from the '60s, it's played more for laughs than anything.
