  • Anvilicious: The message that "abstinence is bad" in this episode is about as subtle as a speeding train. The only acceptable abstinence seems to be if a person doesn't feel ready.
  • Designated Hero: We're supposed to root for Lois in this episode, yet she tries to force her viewpoint of giving up purity and commitment for sex under the crude stereotype that abstinent people are a bunch of spineless, delusional low-lifes. Worse, she then rapes Peter (and it's corrective rape, at that), and not only receives zero punishment, but she succeeds in getting Peter to give up abstinence.
  • Nightmare Fuel: Lois raping Peter. Not only does she flat-out say that she's not asking his permission to do it, whether he likes it or not, the literal definition of rape, Peter seems genuinely resistant to her advances, making the whole thing extremely scary. Lessened a bit since once they start having sex Peter's totally on-board.
