In Forever and Always, there are some scenes that definitely can be taken this way until explained. There are two identical characters, one is married, and the husband interacts with them both in turn, not aware that they are different people & thinking both are his wife. The unmarried one repeatedly insists that she has no idea who he is and wants nothing to do with him, and the husband takes this as his wife saying these things to him (and immediately turning around and being sweet to him).

In Forever and Always, a man is but into an uncomfortable situation where a woman briefly tries to pressure him into having sex with her. It doesn’t end up happening, but the scene does have a few lighthearted lines to it when she tries to reason with him.

In Forever and Always, there are two characters who look identical, and one of them is married. Throughout the whole story, the husband mistakes the unmarried one for his wife, and makes advances and says things to her as if she was. This stops when he realizes that she is not his wife, though it takes a bit of convincing.
In another moment, the unmarried one tries to pressure the husband into having sex with her, but he refuses.
Nothing comes of either scene rather than the character reacting with discomfort, but it definitely could be triggering.

[In General] The usual amount of Starkid sexual humor. [Jane's a Car] Certain cuts of the episode include an extended sequence where a character, uh... Okay there's no tactful way to put this. He tries to have sex with his car. Nothing is shown but the dialog is pretty out-there.
