If there is one thing that "Game of Thrones" is still infamous for even after the series is over - aside from that controversial and disappointing ending, of course - it is the sex scenes (opens in new tab) that were scattered throughout the series. From episode one of season one, "Game of Thrones" has proven itself to be a show that is not afraid to show plenty of (opens in new tab) sex scenes, from the young and sexy Daenerys and Jon Snow to the incestuous pair of Cersei and Jaime. Yes, there was a lot of death (some would say a depressing and unnecessary amount of death) in "Game of Thrones," including those mentioned above - and I'm not going to apologize for spoilers, since it's been over for a while now - but those heartbreaking death scenes were scorching hot (and, well, here's the full (and well, some of them not so hot, if we're being completely honest here) far outweighed the long list of sex scenes. (opens in new tab)

"Game of Thrones" spared no pains to explore sex in various forms and between various characters. While some of the show's love scenes were unbearable to watch (but then again, some of the real-life sex wasn't the best either, so who am I to judge), many of them burned like a dragon's fire. So a very scientific, very formulaic fire pictogram (...) based system to rank the best Game of Thrones sex scenes seems appropriate. Below, we count down the best and most iconic Game of Thrones sexy times, from the totally unsexy to the ones where the characters could have literally screamed "Dracula" in ecstasy.

Trigger warning: rape, violence. Joffrey was the absolute worst, and the masochistic sex scene with Ross and Daisy was nightmarish.

Dracarys level: -.

Trigger warning: rape. One of the more difficult scenes to watch on Game of Thrones was the wedding night of Daenerys and Khal Drogo. The couple has gained a following of enthusiastic shippers over the years, but their wedding night scene is ...... Terrible.

Dracarys level:-.

Margaery Tyrell was in action to win her rightful place as the future queen of Westeros. She was married to Joffrey and was with Renly Baratheon, another strong contender for the Iron Throne, before Joffrey's death before their wedding night saved her life. Unfortunately, even the innocent sexiness of Natalie Dormer could not save this sex scene. Because Renly was gay and not interested in the objectively sexiest of women.

Dracarys Level: .

Don't @. I challenge you to find a sweeter intimate moment in Game of Thrones than this.

Dracarys Levels: .

Melisandre eventually seduced Gendry into bringing a leech into the bedroom to suck his blood for the ritual, with the intent of surprising him. Yes, it was hot, in a BDSM kind of way."

Dracarys level: .

Look, I know this scene is 50 shades of weird. But it made the list because of the hype surrounding Jon and Danny's relationship, *because Jon Snow's ass (open in new tab) went viral, and *because I single-handedly convinced most of the Internet that incest between aunt and nephew is just fine. Help. What is life.

Dracarys Level: .

You'd think Theon would know when and how to keep it in his pants, but that day never seems to come. The idea of riding a horse makes this scene very steamy.

Dracarys Level: .

Daenerys' shitty brother Viserys doesn't last long in this series (there's no way he can keep living against his beloved Khaleesi), but he sneaks in a sex scene in the bathtub with Daenerys' servant Doria.

Dracarys Level: .

Ross is wonderful. Zion is meh. Their sex is more than what Theon's sex should really be . Hot.

Dracarys Level: .

In Season 4, Cersei decided to reveal her inappropriately intimate twin relationship with Jamie to their super uptight father Tywin, who then proceeded to monkey with his brother and the twins at the table. As you wish.

Dracarys Level: .

Jaime and Cersei have several intimate moments throughout the series, but by season 7, Cersei is on the Iron Throne and no longer cares if people know that she and her brother are ~. The brazen confidence of this late GOT's two-timing moment is a bit hot.

Dracarys Level: .

It is the eve of the Battle of Winterfell, and Arya wants to get down for the first time before facing the White Walkers and possibly dying. Was it the most pleasant scene to watch?" Not necessarily, but Arya and Gendry's reunion after years of separation is a blessing.

Dracarys Level: .

I put Cersei and Jamie's incest debut scene on this list because it was completely insane, broke a million taboos, and was honestly a little steamy, so let's forget about the fact that they're brother and sister.

Dracarys Level: .

This isn't the steamiest in GOT history, but Tyrion fucking Roz in the Winterfell brothel in season 1 was probably the most perfect introduction to the two characters.

Dracarys Levels: .

Game of Thrones knows how to make the weirdest sex scenes strangely hot.

Dracarys Level: .

So two wrong things (in this case humans) should not make a right thing, but the lip biting to the point of bleeding in this scene is brilliant. The intensity of passion between two equally crazy people is palpable.

Dracarys Level: .

You can't blame me if you don't remember this. This making love moment between Bronn and one of the prostitutes at Littlefinger's brothel in Season 3 was pretty sexy.

Dracarys Level: .

Daenerys received a lesson in lovemaking (pardon the pun) from one of the maidens before seeking mutual respect in her sexual relationship with Kal Drago. To quote her, "Khaleesi, you will make him want it. A man wants what he has never had."

Dracarys' level: .

Pod is one of the least conceited characters in Westeros, so when Tyrion hires all the women in the brothel to take his virginity, he is beyond perfect.

Dracarys Level: .

Daenerys took a while to get over Khal Drogo's death, but once she did, she was crazy hot.

Dracarys Level: .

Nothing says "anything goes" like "I'm 99% sure I'll die in battle tomorrow" sex. That's the sex Tyrion and his former true love Shae have on the first night they meet. Hott.

Dracarys Level: .

This scene is a) long overdue and b) features oral sex on a woman. But the wonderful thing about this moment is that it is not merely created out of lust or sexual tension. These two were eternally and hopelessly in love with each other, and it was so sweet to see them so vulnerable.

Dracarys Level: .

There is not as much male nudity in "Game of Thrones" as there is in the women, but there are a few gay sex scenes, like the oral sex scene between Loras and Renly.

Dracarys level:.

This scene made the list because, like John and Ygritte, there was *so* much sexual tension leading up to it. But the best part" was that Talisa had to undo all the fancy laces on Rob's leather vest. Tragically, you won't be able to watch it without tears due to the trauma associated with the red wedding.

Dracarys Level: .

After years of tension between the two, who were probably definitely soul mates, Jaime and Brienne were finally united in the show's final season. Just don't think about the fact that shortly thereafter, Jaime ruined it by dumping Brienne for his sister/girlfriend Cersei.

Dracarys Level: .

Sorry Pod, but this is the hottest orgy in Westeros. The Dornishmen (and women) really know how to bring the fire emoji.

Dracarys Level: . [This is how to perform oral sex on a woman in a dimly lit cave.

Dracarys Level: .

This is the scene where Daenerys takes control of her sexual relationship with her husband Khal Drogo (they had only ever had sex from behind) and tells him, "I want to see your face tonight." The two become intimate, and their relationship is transformed.

Dracarys level: . (and more)
