			<description><![CDATA[ Greetings Masters, Mistresses, and slaves,<br><br>I was just reading a post which Master Arius had placed on the Philosphers section explaining Nietzzsche's Master Morality vs. Slave Morality... not to be confused with M/s roles.  So, if anyone here can tell me if I am understanding this correctly... all Goreans, whether Free or Slave are following 'Master Morality' in that they are being true to themselves... knowing who they are and pursuing that, without stopping themselves because someone... ]]></description>

			<link>http://thegoreanforum25823.yuku.com/topic/576/t/Why-would-one-be-a-Gorean-free-woman-.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ I completed two books, and I have this question.  It is very obvious to me why a woman would choose to be a Gorean slavegirl.  What I don't understand is why a woman would choose to be a Gorean free woman?  To me, Gorean free woman is basically what woman have become here on Earth to men (equal partners, etc).  So, if that is what you want to be, why say you are 'Gorean' at all?  Is it simply because you agree that men should receive more respect from women than they do here in our 'day &amp;... ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ What is the concept of family in the Gorean tradition?  What is the tie between father and son or daughter, mother and grown child?  Beyond caste ties, is there more?  If companions often where but for a year, a child conceived during that time, what happened to that child?<br><br>My father is going to get angioplasty tomorrow.  It made me think through this concept quite a bit.  He is across the seas, and it would take me probably 20 hours to get to him by flight.  My ties to him are... ]]></description>

			<link>http://thegoreanforum25823.yuku.com/topic/582/t/Different-women-.html</link>
			<description><![CDATA[ There has been much discussion of the essence of a woman.  There has been debate about what happens when a woman waffles between free and slave, what to expect, etc.  My question here is what is the fundamental difference?  Is there one - except for societal role and place?  <br><br>Is the difference anything more than a social need to have some women for pure pleasure, and others to pass on class lineage or to contribute to society in different ways? ]]></description>

			<description><![CDATA[ There have been many discussions about what aspects of Gorean philosophy have a place (or not) in our present day lifestyles.  I thought to throw out the following question:<br><br>What of the caste system?  How does the caste system differ or relate to the classes of modern day United States?  How vital is this notion of castes to Gorean philosophy?<br><br>From my perspective, its existance in the books was clear and critical in Norman's discussion of the political society/reality of Gor.... ]]></description>

I am a slave to economics as are most...My online time is addictive to me as its my quickest connection to Gor, being in an area where  Gor isnt well known.

			<description><![CDATA[ If there were two almost identical universes with this one being one of them, and where the other one is exactly the same, except that in this universe slavery is completely legal and an accepted part of society.  And it is legal with all the exact same laws as described in the Gorean books, even including the master having ultimate control over the life and death of the slave.  And the slaves are generally treated as slaves are treated in the Gor series by the majority of all people.  Assume... ]]></description>

I am wondering if female masters/mistresses are common.  Most of what I seem to be seeing (and maybe I am not looking in the right places) has the female always in the submissive/service role.<br><br>Please note, I am not looking at judging, just looking for some insight.

			<description><![CDATA[ One thing that we've all discussed many times is what exactly the virtues of Gor were, as well as the Roman and Greek virtues which influenced Lange's writings.  I found the following list of compiled Roman virtues that was quite enlightening, all of them made since, though to be honest a number of them never crossed my mind though in retrospect they should have.  Call it something being to obvious I suppose.  In any event, enjoy the list, it should make for some interesting comparisons and... ]]></description>

In short, it is consensual and perhaps this to some denies the truest form of slavery.<br><br>Be that as it may, we have generally come to the conclusion that consensual slavery is indeed a type of slavery, and while the definitions of said forms of existance may vary, there seem to be a few fundamental... ]]></description>

What I mean is this - can a woman who is in posession of no submissiveness whatsoever still be... ]]></description>
