    A man and a woman have sex. It is implied there is a lot of thrusting. We hear her moaning "yes, yes, yes," we then see a shot of the man on top of the woman. She asks him "why are you stopping?" Then they start kissing again. This is not graphic in the slightest, and there is no nudity.

    There's a scene where Brenda kisses Frank.

    A few scenes of women in their bikinis at the beach.

    A scene where Frank dresses like James Bond and attracts a famous woman at a fancy hotel. They kiss in his room and she tells him to make a cash offer to "have (her) for the whole night". Fully clothed, nothing other than kissing is shown.

    A man and a woman kiss in a sexual way.
