Female topless nudity (in a photograph shown twice), numerous sexual comments or references, but no sex scenes and no male nudity.
In the opening scene, the details of a dream are retold to a marriage counselor and include a man's dismembered penis. Played for laughs. No nudity.

A kiss.
A married woman had an extramarital affair a few years back, which is referred to several times throughout. At one point her husband becomes jealous of her talking to a man and tells her to "have oral sex while I wait in the car."
Some sexual slang, such as "dick" and "cock" (both used about 3 times).
A husband again becomes jealous of his (once unfaithful) wife's conversation with a man and accuses her of wanting to have sex with him.
There is no male nudity in the film.
A compromising photograph being developed in a dark room shows a fully dressed man with two topless women, one on either side of him. Breasts are clearly visible. It is briefly, and in smaller scale, shown again later, but less obvious.
Lieutenant Huff says to a group of people that, "The only time his office is called is when your faggot dogs start humping each other without permission." He later tells Bob that he slept with his wife a while ago; "Three times, Bob. She said you never went three times, Bob."

Profanity is strong throughout. The second half of the movie is slightly more moderate, with only about 10-15 uses of "fuck" in the last hour or so. The first half, however, is extreme on the language front; there are probably almost fifty "fucks" in half as many minutes. (Deleted. Personal opinions about suitable viewing ages are not appropriate for the Parents Guide.)
47 uses of "fuck", 11 uses of "shit" (1 used as "bullshit"), 4 uses of "bitch", 4 uses of "ass", 1 use of "bastard", 14 uses of "hell", 1 use of "damn", 6 uses of "goddamn".
"Dick" and "cocksucker" are used about 3 or 4 times each.
Frequent use of shit, damn, hell, ass, piss, bastard, son of a bitch, and other expletives.
Six of goddamned.
