This Tenet can have a lot of interpretations and they’re all correct in my eyes.
Inviolable by definition means, “never to be broken, infringed, or dishonored.” The obvious interpretation is that your right to your own body should never be infringed upon, you are the master of your own body and no one and nothing else. This supports things like women’s reproductive rights.
For me it also goes a bit deeper. It means that you are not able to be tainted as a person. There is nothing you can do to yourself that will make you tainted, worthless, or shameful. No amount of piercings, tattoos, sexual partners, and other things society says determines your value, will ever change that. What you do with your body is your business and makes you no less and no more. This may be a stretch for some, I’m not sure, but I felt this meaning to my core when I first read this Tenet and I value it a lot, maybe the most.
I’m curious about your thoughts on Tenet III! How do you interpret it? Feel free to discuss your favorite Tenet as well.

“Subject to one’s will alone” says we have the free will to use or abuse our own bodies. It doesn’t mean anything goes, it means to own your choices for better or worse.
I pretty much feel it means anything goes as long as its just you and your body your making decisions about.
