I have no problem with your assertion.

"My question to you is this: Can you accept my assertion that I am not injured? And will you honor my assertion as the truth? "

As I said earlier, I have no problem with your assertion. I had a problem with the opponents of the mojo scenario claiming that, the harm could be of an insidious nature that was not apparent to the harmed, but there anyway.

If Mojo were to make the same kind of claim (the claim of insidious nature of harm being done), via his view point about what is going on with you and your service provider; it would be a hypocritical position for him to take. The claim, and especially the mirrored claims being without substance and irreconcilable. He recognizes that the realm of making claims of "freedom of conscience" is internal and can not be directed as an external judgment about the ethics of others. It is similar to the argument over who's religion or world view everyone should be forced to serve. We have an individual freedom to choose ... so far.

If you and your massage provider do not have an ethic that is compromised by erotic involvement at the level you described, then I do not know what harm we would be referring to. Claims might be levied about how society could be impacted. This is the same claim being made in opposition to mojo and the very claim he has objected to.

At some point the social engineers might want to argue it out but that has little to do with the question of whether or not mojo's position is founded on 'freedom of conscience.'
