For the most part, no. Later in the film, one of Nola's boyfriends sexually assaults her in her own home.

Just watched this and she never explicitly tells him to stop. NOT saying it's ok but I think it's definitely meant to be a grey area.

Nola is assaulted by one of her lovers, and later she still choses to be with him. He blames her for changing him into a man capable assault. STRONG victim blaming, and she laughs it off.

Nola is non-monogamous and is dating three men, who all want her to be monogamous. They see her noncommittal as cheating.

No slurs, but there's stereotyping of the "predatory lesbian" pressuring her friend to "just try it", despite the friend emphasizing not being interested. Not a good depiction of LGBTQ+ characters.
