There are no spiders in Fallout 4. If people are voting yes they might mean the cousin of the arachnid, which is a scorpion, or a Radscorpion in Fallout's case. But since these are not ACTUAL spiders, the answer is no.

*Spoiler* By a very long extension, yes. Synths were created using your sons DNA. You can romance companions that are synths.

No, but if your character gets down to their underwear only, companions might react to it.

Not sure if directly, but Travis Miles' quest is about him gaining more confidence. One of his friends tells the player they want to help Travis "man up".

While not necessarily a car crash, there are many abandoned cars in the game which can explode violently if damaged.

Technically...
While you do not see a plane crash ingame, there are a number of ruin locations with potentially traumatic debris from plane crashes.

In addition to the comment about the player drowning, there are a few unlisted quests that lead to underwater skeletons implied or stated to have died by drowning.
