Ehhhh. Tricky. Robert is implied to have a troubled relationship with his father, and the DLC comics have his father engage in what some fans interpret as abusive behavior (telling an injured child to "get up" and not expressing much concern about the injury).

Putting yes only because we know that our main character's dad was not the best. We know he was neglectful at the very least, and there is some additional info in the companion comics.

sexual comments are constantly made towards Robert, with him appearing disinterested. certain choices in Invisigal’s romance route can lead to Invisigal forcibly kissing him. in chapter 6, Malevola touches his groin twice without his consent. most of these scenes are played for laughs; the Invisigal scene is played straight, but depicted as desirable.
one choice can also lead to Phenomaman kissing Robert, although this at least isn’t done to take advantage of Robert (Phenomaman is an alien and doesn’t understand human social customs.)

Not really, but I would say there is queerbait. The devs were super vague about whether there would be queer romance options (instead of just admitting there aren’t any) and there’s a scene where the protagonist can be kissed by another man with no acknowledgement or follow up.
