We all know there are great female directors in Hollywood history, but they rarely get their praise for directing hot sex scenes. Women know how to showcase a woman's body better than anyone and have directed some of the hottest scenes in skinema from Sanaa Lathan's breasts in Love & Basketball to the infamous threesome in American Psycho. You might be surprised to learn that these scenes were actually helmed by female directors, but it's true. Here are my picks for the top five hottest sex scenes directed by women.

5. Jennifer Tilly and Gina Gershon in Bound directed byLana and Lily Wachowski

4. Samantha Robinson in The Love Witch directed by Anna Biller

3. Jodie Turner-Smith in Queen and Slim directed by Melina Matsoukas

2. Chloe Sevignyand Hilary Swank in Boys Don't Cry directed by Kimberly Peirce

1. Phoebe Cates in Fast Times at Ridgemont High directed by Amy Heckerling

There are so many more where these came from. Truly it was hard to pick five. I wanted to include hot scenes and nudity from directors like Desiree Akhavan, Kelly Reichardt, Lisa Cholodenko, Lynne Ramsey, and Sally Potter, but alas they didn't make the cut. There are just so many good ones! You can still watch their scenes and many more in this hot playlist filled with sexy scenes directed by women.
