it is mentioned that fourteen year old marvin attempts to kill himself at one point in the opening number, marvin’s giddy seizures (“marvin holds his breath, his face is underwater but that’s not a seizure / marvin talks of death, he imitates his slaughter but that’s not a seizure.”).
it is stated that sis, an unknown person mentioned in the track “in trousers (the dream)”, kills herself. sis is also widely speculated to be sweetheart.
his wife / trina was originally going to kill herself in “your lips and me - reprise”, though it wasn’t added.

“queer” is used by both marvin and trina. back in 1979, when in trousers was made, it was considered a slur, now it has been reclaimed.

no one is actually sexually assaulted, but “rape” is used to describe marvin taking off miss goldberg’s glasses, which she has worn throughout the entirety of the musical and is apart of her character, without consent. during this song, the rape of miss goldberg, fourteen year old marvin has a rather strange fantasy of him saying he wants miss goldberg to “make him a happy boy” and mentions multiple sexual things. obviously, this is a fantasy and marvin is gay and trying to convince himself he is not (as it is the 40s-50s), miss goldberg is not raped.
