There is a variety of bullying and abuse throughout this film, all accurately depicted. The authorities are very lackadaisical about it.

A child is almost sexually assaulted but gets saved.

Later in the movie, [spoilers] A character has a pillow placed over her head and is killed by being penetrated by a hot curling iron. It is off-screen and all you see is the shadows suggesting what is happening.

Not necessarily sexually but the only trans character is a serial killer and thus predatory in that regard.

Like a lot of old movies involving transgender people, unfortunately a transgender character is represented as being forced to transition, as well as being portrayed as a murderer.

Later movies do portray the character as being happy being herself, and having fully transitioned.

It is revealed that one of the main characters has been forced by her guardian to present as a girl, though she is AMAB. Though later films show that she is a trans woman, she is referred to as a boy near the end of the film. In the later movies, we see the same character as a grown woman, and it is stated that she transitioned.

One of the final shots show full frontal nudity. The character and actor are 14 (though her head was obviously digitally imposed on a presumed adult's nude body). We also see some men's nude butts at some point
