Are you also objecting to the fact that bakers are forced to obey food safety standards, or that photographers are forced to use film in their cameras when they attend events, and not just pocket the money and flee? Or do you recognize that we need legally protected standards of conduct to stop the unscrupulous from harming the consumer?
Because all this argument of yours is, is special pleading in order to advantage discrimination. Truthfully, you have no problem with bakers and photographers, and anyone else, being forced to do certain things in their professional life, just so long as that doesn't conflict with what's either an internalized bigotry, or the biggest stick up your ass that I've ever seen.
