The film features Leon, an openly gay character whose portrayal relies heavily on effeminate and stereotypical tropes for comedic effect. His identity is primarily a source of mockery, with jokes often at his expense, contributing to a net negative impact due to the lack of dignity or counterbalancing critique.

The film features a transsexual character, Dig McCaffrey, whose identity is revealed as a major plot twist to resolve a perceived incestuous relationship. This portrayal uses the character's trans identity primarily for comedic shock and plot convenience, rather than offering a dignified or complex depiction.

The film portrays a 'Christian' halfway house run by Vic, a manipulative and hypocritical character who uses religion as a front for his schemes. The narrative depicts this institution and its leader as exploitative and problematic, without significant counterbalancing positive portrayals of the faith.
