So couldn't the point have been made more articulately then?

They could have left out everything about lesbians being "hot" and still conveyed the message about the harsh lives the LGBTQ community faces in those countries without coming across so juvenile in the attempt.

Even then, it still seems as crass as when the PCs went "LGBTories" not long ago. These people don't care about the plight of the community, they just want to promote their own cause, justifying it by telling everybody how horrible the other oil producing nations treat LGBTQs.
