That Liberal Arts student needs to get an education about life before analyzing movies. Brokeback Mountain was obviously about the frustrations of expressing love when you do it in a manner that society frowns upon. Sure, it included adultery but that sure was not the focus of the movie. The focus was the destructiveness forced upon two people who were in love but were not able to overcome societal pressures. It was a tragedy for all involved (men and women) who had to live a lie.
