Answering the question both in-universe and gameplay-wise, you are generally correct. It's going to take multiple shots to down a Kindred that's not like 5 days old, so long as you're not using specialized rounds like dragonbreath. Let me try to break it down:
In World of Darkness, the system that Vampire and other games use, there are three types of damage: Bashing, Lethal, and Aggravated. Bashing is what you would expect, damage from punches, bats, etc. Lethal are weapons like knives, guns, electricity, and generally anything that someone would be highly dangerous when struck. Aggravated represents either supernatural damage or something egregiously lethal in the case of mortals. You have an HP pool, which is typically around 6 for newer characters and damage is marked as a forward slash, X, or star corresponding to bashing, lethal, and aggravated damage.
Each time you take a form of damage, you mark off the leftmost box with damage received. This continues until all boxes are filled, at which point you receive heavy penalties and any damage received is upgraded to the next highest (e.g. you take bashing when all boxes are filled with bashing and it converts to lethal, lethal to aggravated). Once all boxes fill with lethal, you're in a coma. Once all boxes fill with aggravated, you're a ghost. Kindred have a special condition in that guns cause bashing damage instead of lethal. This means that they have effectively double the HP pool of a mortal when being shot, AND they have the capability to heal wounds using the supernatural power of their blood unlike mortals who have to wait to heal.
So a shotgun blast is not going to majorly fuck you up unless the guy firing it has some high stats and you are fresh off the boat and totally unarmored...OR if they have specialized ammo. Remember what I said about bashing damage? If they fire dragonbreath, that's all aggravated, which can't be healed with your blood. Now THAT will fuck you up in a couple shots.

It always varies from woman to woman. Men are fairly constant insofar as sex is concerned as a need. That is, in order to stay in a balanced mental state men need regular sex as a general rule, and thus to them sex is more transactional. It's like a meal, with all the hunger that comes with missing one. Women, on the other hand, tend to be variable. As a general rule, sex is an EXPERIENCE for them. They take time to be worked up, to finish, and to come down. They don't usually want to have sex all the time, but when they do have sex on their terms they generally want it to be a more involved experience, with more foreplay and emotion.
That said, there are always exceptions to every rule, and in my experience there are funnily enough exceptions to every woman. While women are more experience and emotion-oriented, they are still physical beings with sexual needs. They tend to have less of an immediate need for sex, but every once in awhile you'll meet a woman that needs it daily like most men. I dated a woman that was like me, she couldn't sleep unless she came at least once every night. Unless you have a woman like this, you generally have to explain to them your needs, because a lot of women simply do not experience the world the same way as us.

Just because the characters claim something doesn't mean it has to be literal truth.
I personally /love/ house Carna as a catastrophic collapse waiting to happen.
In the case of Elif: just becasue she claimed to be nice doesn't mean she wasn't a little tyrant wolf in sheep's clothings.
