Your whole argument hinges on your belief that homosexuality is a behavior and not an innate characteristic. This is something that cannot be proven one way or another and to pretend it can be is dishonest.
One's sexual conduct is the product of free will and not an immutable, morally neutral characteristic like one's ethnicity or gender. Even if you could somehow prove that one's sexual orientation is genetically predetermined the capacity for free choice in terms of behavior still remains.
Only a complete nihilist would want to advocate the equality of all behaviors in the same way that we should affirm racial or gender equality.

"...though homosexualists made up only 2 percent of the population, they were nevertheless a very powerful 2 percent. A group representing only one out of every 50 Americans has such social power, I think, because they represent an extreme of sexual liberty that thereby justifies more "normal" immorality, e.g., rampant heterosexual fornication. The secular straight world listens to them and promotes their cause because it is sexually libertine itself and knows that a world in which sodomy is normal is a world in which no one will think twice about fornication or even adultery." David Mills
