There is a fight scene in a shower that includes two naked boys. I would not deem it pornographic, I won't go into details here (mainly because spoiler tags do not work at work) but I can see where someone with an over active case of homophobia would see it as problematic. There are also many mentions of naked boys because you are dealing with an almost all male military school and that type of thing happens.

I cannot think of any scene in the book that is overtly sexy or includes anything that anyone with half a brain would call sexy.
