Game of Thrones has pushed the boundaries of what's allowed on television further than ever before in the most recent episode, Breaker of Chains, which aired Sunday, April 20.
Although Game of Thrones is no stranger to stirring up heated reactions for its sex scenes—from the romantic ones between fan favorite characters, to the controversial ones such as when the sadistic King Joffrey makes two hired girls commit violent sexual acts with one another—this latest scene seems to have crossed a line.
