Being gay is a fetish.

Except that it is not a choice.  You did not agonize over whether to be attracted to men or women.  You were either attracted to one or the other.  That is how it is.

Going through puberty, I only felt sexual attraction toward my own gender.

Exactly.

as I've said before, it's absolutely no skin off my back. Don't want to serve me? That's fine these other girls can have my money instead. 

You're losing custom and money. I'm losing nothing.

Except you've likely never been asked to leave, say in a restaurant full of people, because they don't serve people like you.

If a person is a big enough bigot to refuse gay people service, they are likely a big enough bigot to make a scene of it.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Same question as for anyone making that bold claim: When did you decide to become straight? And what attraction does dick have for you?

During adolescence, like most people.

So, during your adolescence, you were sexually attracted to males?

Only those ex-gays, who we all know are not ex-gay at all.

I'd be surprised by the fact that homophobes don't see the flaws in their arguments, but it's all a part of being human. They don't see why nobody would choose to be/remain homosexual when faced with discrimination ranging from simple disgust to death threats.
If I could've chosen to be heterosexual, I would have. In fact, I tried to. Then I admitted to myself I wasn't.
The truth is absolute. Life forms are specks of specks (...) of specks of dust in the universe.
Why settle for normal, when you can be so much more? Why settle for something, when you can have everything?

They have the perfect pre-packaged non-answer to that: we just love our sin too much to make the obvious choice.

'Course, then we get into justifying the existence of sin, which they never seem to do, leaving the argument right back in specious territory... Rolleyes

Isn't it amazing how every argument against homosexuality is religious in nature?
Cue Heywood.

Well, religious in nature, or based around the assumption that anal sex is the only component of homosexuality.
