Leanne is the closest person to him and also the most vulnerable, which makes her a convenient target for his anger. That doesn't mean Simon doesn't love her, but is used to depending on her to make things right, which - increasingly - she cannot.

Simon didn't grow up amongst prostitutes with regular visitors to the house as far as we know. He's always been presented as very young for his age and not a kid to curiously surf the net or discuss sexual activities with school mates.

These people have the chastity of alley cats, to me Leanne is one up because she got paid well for doing it.
