* TheHecateSisters: Shared with TheThreeFacesOfAdam, as there's a trans woman and two cross-dressing men. The promiscuous, somewhat mean, ditzy Adam is the maiden. Tick is the mother, as the most reasonable of the three [[spoiler:and also having a son of his own.]] Bernadette is the crone, recently widowed and introverted, but very kind.

* TheThreeFacesOfAdam: Due to the characters' gender-bending, the movie splits the difference between this and TheHecateSisters. Adam is the hunter, as the youngest and wildest of the three. Tick is the lord, trying to balance the secrets of his past - [[spoiler:like his wife and son]] - with the future, and Bernadette is the prophet, left in a reflective mood by the death of her husband.

* AmbiguouslyBi: Bob married Cynthia, an Asian stripper and prostitute, after a night of drunken sex with her. He seems to feel little affection or desire for her (though this is no doubt at least partly due to how obnoxious she is) and isn't all that sad to see her go. Meanwhile, Bob has a rather odd interest in and knowledge of drag shows for an Aussie Outback bloke, and grows increasingly close to and eventually involved with Bernadette.
