We see kissing (same- and opposite-sex), flirting; lots of discussion of dating and romance.

One character tells another she had sex, and the other immediately asks if she used a condom.

There's infidelity, with some explicit description.

In a sex-ed class, the teacher describes some the bio-mechanics of erections and a student makes ribald comments.

Teen characters have sex off-screen (no nudity) and sometimes refer to it in blunt terms

Violence barely ever happens. But at one point, there is a scene that is VERY graphic and gory.

We see one guy knocked out briefly by a punch. Another kid is seen with a black eye and says that another character hit him.

We hear a tale of a fatal accident in a war zone.

A boy's nose starts bleeding. The blood is quickly wiped off.

Frequent profanity throughout. F*ck is used the most frequently.

Also, there is somewhat less frequent use of words such as, shit, bitch, dick, whore, etc.

2 slurs are used in the series (1 use of each). f*ggot and d*ke (d*ke being used toward an actual lesbian character)

2 of the main characters get in trouble for cursing in class

There are scenes where the main characters Sydney, Stanley and Dina smoke weed. There is alcohol drinking at a party in one episode.

The main character, Sydney, struggles with trying to understand her father's suicide (before the series begins) and her family life.

Stanley's father is abusive.
