Not actual rape, but Clay forces Cat to kiss her a few times and sneaks into her bed twice and gets handsy. It's meant to be charming but is a refection of the era when the movie was made and not seen as charming today.

Could be seen as asssault. Cat disguises herself as a prostitute and is uncomfortable with Sir Harry trying to touch and kiss her. Also a few times throughout the movie where Clay kisses her and it's not consensual.

A couple of arguments between Clay and Cat that are triggering. Clay yells and becomes angry when Cat rejects him after he sneaks into Cat's bedroom, hides in her bed, and tries to kiss her. She resorts to fawning and asking for his help when he is about to leave and he is suddenly happy again. Later they have an argument about being in love.

A couple of bathing scenes but the characters are either sitting in water or covered with a towel, and when the towel is yanked away the character is covered by other actors blocking him.

Possibly large age gap between Cat and Clay, ages are not mentioned but she has just finished teaching school which could make her late teens or early 20s. Its also indicated that Shaleen, who is much older, has romantic feelings towards Cat.

Tim Strawn's nose was bitten off, but it already happened before the events in the movie and he covers it with a silver prosthetic.

Cat's father chides her for dancing with his Native American farmhand, stating that she will only cause Jackson problems by doing so. It's more a reflection of the times in 1892 since her father gave Jackson a job and otherwise treats him as an equal, unlike the rest of the town people who wouldn't give him a job.

Clay covers Cat's mouth to keep her from screaming, both times after sneaking into her bed. It's something that was more common and taken lightly when the movie was made but comes across as creepy by today's standards.

One of the baddies taunts Jackson Two Bears by calling him "Lo, the poor Indian." This refers to journalism at the time using the term "Poor Lo" to refer to Native Americans.

Cat's father insists Native Americans are the Lost Tribe of Israel and will not listen to Jackson or Cat when they say he is mistaken.

Kid Sheleen is an alcoholic and his ability to be a sharpshooter hinges on him having exactly the right amount to drink. No alcohol makes him shaky, exact amount and he is clever and articulate and on target, one sip too much makes him lean over and obviously drunk, but it's done in a comedic manner. He is often asking others for a drink.

The townswomen sing religious hymns outside of Cat's prison cell and several towns people join in the singing during her walk to the scaffold. Someone also holds up a sign that says "where will you spend eternity?" Jed also disguises himself as a fire and brimstone preacher when rescuing both Clay and Cat.
