Some people may have been generally offended by the content, but I think most people who disliked the movie did so simply because it was poorly written, acted (to be fair, it's hard to act when the script sucks), directed, and filmed.
The first movie in the series (Not Another Gay Movie) was fairly funny. Yes, it was corny in parts, but overall it was a fairly entertaining spoof of teen sex comedies. It was a gay American Pie.
Unfortunately, this sequel was just drivel. It had an interesting set up and it even raised one or two "serious" issues, but then it went absolutely nowhere. There were a couple of laughs, but most of the jokes fell dead. Also, Perez Hilton was just annoying. There was no point for him to be in the film, and it was irritating that they kept creating unnecessary scenes for him to just walk out and do poor reenactments of scenes from famous (and far better) films.
The lead actors seemed as if they were capable of acting, but unfortunately they had so little to work with that they pretty much gave up. A few of the scenes with the two couples showed a hint of human emotion (and I would have rather watched a movie about the two couples), but most of the rest of the film was just trite, boring, derivative, and devoid of anything or anyone which would make the audience care about what happened. Even RuPaul who normally looks pretty glamorous looked tired and bored. She barely even bothered to get made-up--it was like she knew the film wasn't even worth the effort.
One of my friends even had a fairly large role in the movie (playing one of the Jaspers), and even still, I couldn't make myself like the film.
