So when something has a strong direction that's suddenly lost, you can pretty much bet that it's the new director that dropped the ball.
Also, the Mutant Cure was taken directly from Joss Whedon's Astonishing X-Men, which was the big famous storyline that was happening just before the movie was written.
So, it's pretty obvious it's not some anti-gay message going on. It's more that Ratner can't direct his way out of a paper bag, and had complete ADHD going on, and wanted to capitalize on Whedon's work.

Script was set before Ratner came aboard. I read a preliminary script for x3 that had most of the main segments to x3 in tact. Ratner added fanboy bits and that was it. The sucky movie wasn't ratner's fault entirely. Ratner is capable of delivering a solid film... Red Dragon was great.
