Hiya! Welcome to NSFW Sunday, your favorite day of the week for happiness and sin. We're a little late today but it's worth it.
Today's post, which will feature some of our favorite cinematic NSFW sexy lesbian scenes as well as a traditional Lesbian Sexy Sunday links round-up, would not have been possible without the entire team and also a website called The Encyclopedia of Lesbian Movie Scenes.
We've kept this website a secret from you, but we suspect some of you have already been secretly visiting it yourself perhaps for years. The design is very Geocities. You might 'see the first page' and think 'wtf this is weird' and 'that graphic creeps me out.' But then you will see the bounty of information contained within, divided into sections and meticulously detailed.
We've honestly never ventured outside of the Lesbian Movie Scenes section (it's pretty liberal about the "Erotic TV Series" etc. included in the Lesbian Movie Scenes, so we can't really imagine what the "Selected X-Rated" section might involve), but that in and of itself is pretty f*cking thorough.
Seriously. Girls. This is extensive shit! It's not just movies, it's actually every TV show, reality show, foreign film, lesbian film, 70's films you can't even find on video anymore, whathaveyou -- including all the L Word sex scenes. 
How is this website not already a major part of the "lesbian webiverse" you might wonder -- after all, the lez-web never been particularly discriminating about design or usability. Well, if you're a weirdo obsessed with the behind-the-scenes mechanisms of everything that exists, you will want to know (as detailed in the FAQ) that the entire site is curated by a dude. Yup. A dude who has AfterEllen-esque ability to sense & record every time two ladies lock eyes in a room on a screen, past, present, and future. A guy who "has been absolutely fascinated by everything lesbian ever since [he] saw Emmanuelle 2 in a movie theater here in Sweden back in the early 1980s." Uh-huh.
Okay, so, that is either kinda cutely earnest (like "everything lesbian" is like Fellini films or model airplanes or Harry Potter or Star Trek) or totally creepy, but whatever he did it and we prosper. In '95 he "got onto the net," looked around and saw that no one "shared his fascination" (interesting) and in '97 began to build a site to be an alternative to fake male-catered lesbian porn and um, "very political sites by women" (HELLO THAT WOULD BE US)! 
And there we have it!
So, that being said, we thought today would be a good day to talk about some of the best lesbian sex scenes from movies. These suckers are often hard to track down, but we've done what we can. Yeah? I mean why not. And then we'll get to the rest of the "fix."
First, a brief Autostraddle PSA:
Because apparently no one knows how to read, let me all caps this for you: THIS IS NOT A TOP TEN LIST. THIS IS NOT IN ORDER OF PREFERENCE. THESE ARE NOT THE "BEST OF" ANYTHING. IT'S JUST TEN LESBIAN MOVIE SEX SCENES. RANDOMLY, BRAINSTORM-GENERATED.
