A man is raped by a woman, while both are very drunk. Nudity/etc is not seen and the scene fades out quickly.

there is literally corrective rape of a gay man in this film, and the film does not remotely treat it with any of the seriousness it deserves

The film frames it as cheating, but it is more accurate that a man is raped.

J*p is used by a Chinese character. A white man at the banquet thought that all Chinese people were meek math whizzes.
