MPAA accused of homophobia over R-rated sex-free gay romance

Hopefully there will be an appeal and the initial rating gets revised. There have been several films from what I can find that have had successful appeals, mostly related to language. It does seem that the MPAA is fairly quick to slap an R-rating on movies because of language so the link to homophobia isn't necessarily clear. Below are a couple relatively recent examples of reversals:
