G.I. Jane

The main character is enrolled in an elite training program to test out gender equality in the Navy. She demands equal treatment with her male peers. The men alongside and above her don't want her there. Some engage in macho or sexist behavior, and others attempt to sabotage her success. But a supervisor admits, "She's not the problem. We are." A Black trainee sympathizes with her because his grandfather wasn't allowed to serve in World War II. He says, "You're the new 'N' word on the block." The falsified claim that she might be a lesbian results in an investigation.

Violence ranges from extreme physical and mental exhaustion in Navy SEAL training to bloody battle scenes to sexist treatment of a female Navy recruit. In one scene, a commander begins to simulate a rape of the female recruit. Her body suffers during training, leading to "jungle rot," loss of her period, and more. SEAL trainers haze newcomers with degrading comments and nearly tortuous treatment, including simulated military exercises as well as real beatings. The exercises and a battle scene involve gunfire and explosions, imprisonment, time spent in mud and freezing water, a lack of food or rest, and more.

A couple takes a bubble bath together. In another scene, they kiss and then later appear in their bathrobes and underwear. A man approaches O'Neil in the shower; no private parts are shown. There are accusations about two women having an affair.
