Nary a tingle, I assure you. I was much more interested in the stuff they were delivering.)"

So the intersting package was in his hands!

He really ought to have sent a homosexual to delivery it, though. For some people pizza and UPS can provoke a "sexualized" atmosphere--or so I have heard.

"If HE is refusing services to them, HE is discriminating against them. He may be compensating for and mitigating the negative effect of that discrimination via referrals, but he is still discriminating. What don't you get about that?"

Huh...I don't even get what your point is. If I decide to date but eliminate lesbians from the list of eligible candidates I am discriminating. I was almost certain we were trying to draw a line that would qualify as legally causing harm. ... No, wait... I am certain that is what we have been doing.

"The standard for Mojo's profession is no actual hanky-panky. I subscribe to the industry standard. The standard for Mojo is, apparently, no impure thought or visceral reaction. So his threshold of risk is, er, non-standard--the exception, deviant"

Well, we can qualify that by saying he wants to lower that risk not make gaurantees but otherwise:

Absolutely...bingo... right on the money... way to go ...

So are you finally ready to start this discussion?

"Perhaps some clue as to how he might reliably go about giving clients Myrna's card rather than a massage and doing it gracefully and seamlessly."

I am not a service provider so I would be clumsy in describing the process but all successful providers have worked out routines to refer clients that they feel would be served better elsewhere that includes a tactful and gracious presentation. How about I specialize in providing services to men I am not taking new clients right now, and I can refer you to several excellent providers including my cousin who has recently earned some awards for her excellent skills, and specializes in treating women.

If you think mojo is that odd why would you insist he is the only person for the job? My guess is you wouldn't insist on having his services and probably wouldn't go with his referal either.
