J(EWS). Anyone who thinks this film has to deal solely with romance is sorely mistaken.

I think the "lesson" if there was one is that you shouldn't be secretive about your sexuality or suppress it too much. In the beginning, Cruise's wife is shown being flirty and open about her sexuality, and it's played like she's about to cheat on him, but at the last second she confidently stops herself because she understands where the line is.
Meanwhile Cruise is chatting it up with ladies and stumbling into secret sex meetings and he refuses to talk about it, he views sex and love under a more sinister, sleazy light. The sex cult is the logical extreme of that way of thinking, where respeced businessmen turn into creepy cultists because they keep this orgy thing bubbling under the surface. And all the while, Cruise is constantly being tempted by women because they all want his PhDick.
And then, what do you know, he puts it all behind him and goes back to his wife, who'd been faithful to him the whole time, he opens up just a little bit, and they live happily ever after yadda yadda yadda.
I think it was a commentary on how American culture suppresses sex and the extreme lengths some people will go to just to get their rocks off in such a society.

Imo sexuality and social constructs about that: portrayed by showing different sides of what life can become depending on the sexual life you conduct. Even if somebody can argue that the book had other meanings, in the movie finale kubrick emphasises the sexual one by closing with the (in)famous phrase.
