IMHO, the best place/time for your kids to see this movie is with you. Let's face it, they are going to be exposed to all sorts of things in a positive light that we totally disagree with.
Instead of ignoring it, I always made a point to discuss those things with my kids. Then explain to in straight forward terms just like you have done on this board of whats going on.

I think they become very savvy to these tricks.

Social engineering have been going on for many generation in our media. That intentional programing hidden agenda can be good sometimes, if it helped rectify certain intolerance. However, the liberals take it "another notch" to the point that smart consevatives get sick of this constant poundings.

And that's great. If every parent was like you that way, our kids would grow up to be much smarter, much stronger, and much less naive.

But the problem is that a lot of parents totally miss the gay subtext and assume it's a safe movie for their kids to see. Sure, the parents are dumb for not seeing through this trick, but it's very scandalous of Disney or anyone for that matter to take advantage of a parent's ignorance or indifference to exploit children. Unfortunately, we can't censor them; that would be contrary to everything we stand for. But that doesn't mean we shouldn't voice our opinions on the matter.
