A wife asks her husband if she is sexy.
There is one scene in which a student tries to rape a teacher, but is thwarted by a male teacher.
There is a sub-plot involving a pregnant woman receiving letters saying that her husband is having an affair. It's not true, and nothing explicit happens, per se, but the consequences that result from it are disturbing nonetheless.
It's also worth noting that the woman mentioned in the letters does try to seduce the husband, but he refuses.

The language is pretty tame by today's standards. About the worst that is said in this movie is "Hell." However, the movie contains a lot of slang dialogue that might offend some viewers.
It's also worth noting that there's a scene involving a man using the n-word, not as a way to offend, but to show his students how bad those words are. He is later accused of using that word offensively.

Most of this film is disturbing and not for the faint of heart.
