Open Question: Why is homosexuality treated so profoundly as a separate sexual preference beyond all others?

[feedcrawler]

Homosexuality is just a sexual preference and attraction. I'm not saying it's a conscious choice anymore than being straight is. But all it is is a sexual preference, no different than say a foot fetish, people don't decide to have these, they just find certain things attractive for subconscious reasons and there is nothing wong with that, but why is an attraction to a person of the same sex treated as being more powerful and profound, I think it's just further regressing the lack of sexual understanding in society.
