Gorean Quotes on Free Women.....continued
The following are quotes from books of Gor by John Norman. The Gor series can be purchased from several places online such as Amazon or E-Bay, although I am not placing my "stamp of approval" on either of those places, the books can be bought through them. I in no way lay claim to the words taken from his books that I have listed below. I encourage anyone reading this to read the books as they can provide so much information.
"Sex in a woman is a very subtle and profound thing; she is capable of deep and sustained pleasures which might be the envy of any vital organism. These pleasures, of course, can be used by a man to make her a helpless prisoner and slave. Perhaps that is why free women guard themselves so sternly against them." ~Page 10 Beasts of Gor "I thought long after our conversation," he said. "You had dared to confess your slave needs, and this had shamed you, and it had scandalized me. But, why, I asked myself. Should not, rather, one be more ashamed by deceit than the truth? Can there truly be a greater honor in hypocrisy than in honesty? It does not seem so. I then realized how bravely you had trusted me and revealed this to me. My outrage gave way to gratitude and admiration. Similarly, I asked myself, why was I scandalized. Was this not connected with hidden fears of my own, that I might discover complementary needs within myself, the needs to own and be a master? Your confession, so expressive and poignant, tended to undermine a deceit of free persons. You had dared, it seemed, to break the code of hypocrisy. Had the gate to barbarism been left ajar? I regretted, for a time, the loss of the lie. We grow fond of our myths. Yet our myths are like walls of straw. Ultimately they cannot protect us. Ultimately they must perish in the flames of truth:" "You would have taken me," she asked, "knowing that I had slave needs?" "Your slave needs," he said, "made you a thousand times more desirable. What man does not want a slave?" She looked at him, startled. "It was thus my intention to take you into honorable companionship," he said, "but, in the privacy of our quarters, away from the sight of the world, to put you in a collar, and keep you as a slave, and keep you as a slave, even to the whip." She looked up at him, disbelievingly. "But", he said, "such a farce will not now be necessary." ~Pages 256-257 Guardsman of Gor "When I had questioned her, Lara had said to me that only when true love is learned is the Free Companionship possible, and that some women can learn love only in chains." ~Pages 250-251 Outlaw of Gor "The Gorean women, for reasons that are not altogether clear to me, considering the culture, rejoices in being a woman. She is often an exciting, magnificent glorious creature, outspoken, talkative, vital, active, spirited." ~Page 67 Priest Kings of Gor "The wholisticality of the female's response is an interesting one. Their response is a whole, physical, emotional, and intellectual. Men have sex; women are sex." ~Page 101 Renegades of Gor "Goreans, in their simplistic fashion, often contend, categorically, that man is naturally free and woman is naturally slave. But even for them the issues are more complex than these simple formulations would suggest. For example, there is no higher person, nor one more respected, than the Gorean free woman." ~Page 311 Hunters of Gor "This harsh treatment, incidentally, when she is thought to deserve it, may even be inflicted on a Free Companion, in spite of the fact that she is free and usually much loved. According to Gorean way of looking at things a taste of the slave ring is thought to be occasionally beneficial to all women, even the exhalted free Companions. Thus when she has been irritable or otherwise troublesome even a Free Companion may find herself at the foot of a Masters couch looking forward to a pleasant night on the stones, stripped, with neither mat not blanket, chained to a slave ring precisely as though she were a lowly slave girl. It is the gorean way of reminding her, should she need be reminded, that she too, is a woman, and thus to be dominated, to be subject of men. Should she be tempted to forget this basic fact of Gorean life the slave ring set in the bottom of each Gorean couch is there to refresh her memory. Gor is a Man's world." ~Page 67 Priest Kings of Gor "The Gorean girl is, even if free, accustomed to slavery; she will perhaps own one or more slaves herself; she knows that she is weaker than men and what this can mean; she knows that cities fall and caravans are plundered; she knows she might even, by a sufficiently bold warrior, be captured in her own quarters and, bound and hooded, be carried by tarnback over the wall of her own city. Moreover, even if she is never enslaved, she is familiar with the duties of slaves and what is expected of them; if she should be enslaved she will know , on the whole, what is expected of her what is permitted her and not; moreover the Gorean girl is literally educated, fortunately or not, to the notion that it is of great importance to know how to please men; accordingly, even girls who will be free companions, and never slaves, learn the preparation and serving of exotic dishes, the art of walking, and standing, and being beautiful, the care of a mans equipment, the love dances of their city, and so on." ~Page 63 Nomads of Gor "You were not struck for such an absurd reason," I said, "You are, after all a free woman, and free women are entitled to insult, and attempt to demean and destroy men. It is one of their freedoms, unless men, of course, should decide to take it from them. You were struck rather, because you were attempting to manipulate me." She nodded, putting her head down." ~Page 422 Mercenaries of Gor
