This show has a wide variety of types of jokes about a wide variety of topics. Some are subtle and brilliant, others are more crass and cringy. There are tropes, clichés, things that Seinfeld did better, and so on.
However, the early seasons tell so much truth about women, men and relationships, it's almost PUA 101 - no doubt because of Charlie's vast experience with women.
Of course there are 'sex' jokes, the core point of the humor is the situation, where a horny, high-status playboy that lives an 'easy life' is contrasted with a neurotic, selfish simp that couldn't get a woman off if women had off-buttons.
However, what 'comedy show', especially these days, doesn't? Seinfeld has sex jokes, so what. It was still a hilarious show.
This show has sex jokes, but it also has a plethora of other jokes and has had me laughing out loud more times than I can remember. Not every joke is fun, not every joke lands, there is the usual misandry and the unrealistic 'virtue signaling' crap, like that episode where a woman 'converts to a man' (which would never work, and there's no reason to change from princess to slave even if it did work) and we're supposed to sympathize with the type of mental illness that makes some people think 'gender change' is possible without reincarnation.
In any case, it's a fun and funny show, and Charlie's performance is brilliant most of the time, I recommend ACTUALLY watching it.
