If you happen to be watching a Hollywood flick that shows a sex scene, one that doesn't cut away when two characters start kissing intensely, or climb into bed, you'll most likely be treated to the most vanilla (and heterosexual) coupling imaginable. The woman will leave her bra on. The man, somehow, won't reveal any flesh beyond his back or chest. And afterward, everyone will stay under the sheets. Not a stray nipple or pubic hair, absolutely no genitalia.

And no wonder people have strange ideas about sex.

Of course, there are fringe films that depict different sorts of sex, often through the lens of kink. To see something beyond vanilla, you wind up watching art films or other edgy fare. Sign us up for that: Here are the 25 Kinkiest Movies.
