2	108	"Because it is beautiful," he said, "and dangerous, and because we are Goreans".	10
4	6	Too, the passage was devoid of ornament, lacking the mosaics and tapestries with which the beauty-loving Goreans below the mountains are wont to glorify the places of their own habitation.	10

11	400	The crucial political entity for Goreans tends to be the city or village, the place where people and power are.	10
11	402	Men of Earth tend to think of territory in a manner that might be considered circumferential, whereas Goreans tend to think of it as a more radial sort of thing.	10
11	419	Goreans, often castigated for their cruelty, would find such monstrosities unthinkable.	10
13	403	I then understood why Goreans commonly bind the hands of women behind their back.	10
13	543	I do not think this was simply because we feared to irritate or offend passing Goreans, who tend to view languages other than their own as barbarous, or because slaves are expected to use a speech intelligible to their masters, but because, for most practical purposes, Gorean had become our language...	10
16	13	Caste membership, for Goreans, is generally a simple matter of birth; it is not connected necessarily with the performance of certain skills, nor the attainment of a given level of proficiency in such skills.	10
16	21	The welfare of a larger number of individuals, as the Goreans reason, correctly or incorrectly, is more important than the welfare of a smaller number of individuals.	10
16	38	This saying, however, it might be pointed out, as Goreans recognize, is not strictly true.	10
16	45	To most Goreans it would be unthinkable to alter caste.	10
16	51	Most Goreans are quite content with their castes; this is probably a function of caste pride.	10
18	6	These colors tend to be cultural for Goreans with respect to housings for domestic animals.	10
19	140	Frigidity is a neurotic luxury which Goreans do not see fit to indulge in female slaves.	10
19	325	Goreans tend, culturally, to be fond of long hair on a woman.	10
20	70	There were, in favored seats, some upper-caste Goreans, recognizable by the colors and qualities of their robes, and among these, here and there, heavily veiled, erect and lovely, some upper-caste women.	10
22	235	Goreans do not see fit to reward improvidence.	10

21	31	On the other hand, as Earth women in Gorean markets have become more familiar and numerous, most Goreans have come to accept that their origin is a different world.	10
21	33	How they have come to Gor, of course, remains largely mysterious to most Goreans, and often, at least in detail, to the girls themselves.	10
21	34	Some Goreans, interestingly, but understandably enough, unaware of the absence of an adequate atmosphere between worlds, as were most intellectuals of Earth for centuries, as well, suppose simply, and naturally enough, that these new crops of slave beasts have been brought in lashed in tarn baskets,...	10
22	158	Do all women belong in collars? The Goreans have a saying that all women are slaves, only that some are not yet in collars.	10
23	39	Goreans place few impediments in the way of the liberation of a slave female's sexuality.	10
23	172	Neither, too, as say the Goreans, will know their fulfillment until they become true to themselves.	10
24	314	"Females," she said, "are the natural property of men such as Goreans, not of men such as those of Earth.	10
24	315	It is men such as Goreans, and not men such as those of Earth, who recognize the meaning of our beauty and simply take us, and make us serve them.	10
24	688	That is a saying of Goreans.	10
30	132	The heart to Goreans, as to certain of those of Earth, is understood as a symbol of love.	10

19	33	Indeed, as Goreans went, I was now a rich man.	10
19	365	This tends to keep her, as the Goreans say, rather vulgarly perhaps, "ready in her collar".	10
19	429	But who, truly, is the superior woman? Many Goreans believe that it is the girl who kneels on the stones.	10
19	960	On the other hand, it is hard to tell, for Goreans tend to favor the natural female.	10
20	298	Just as a woman may be chained in many ways, and Goreans can be ingenious in chaining their females, so, too, there can be many reasons for chaining her.	10
20	892	"They all wear collars," is the first portion of a familiar exchange, of which Goreans are fond.	10
20	995	It is little wonder that Goreans put them in collars, and own them.	10
20	1028	Goreans, as I may have mentioned, are interested in owning the whole woman, in all her sweetness, depth, complexity and individuality.	10
20	1785	Too, Goreans tend to be much closer to nature than at least the common urbanite of Earth.	10
20	1797	Goreans are usually individuals of deep feelings.	10
20	1841	You see, she is still a slave, fully, and it is regarded by Goreans as important not to relax her discipline in the least, nor spare the whip if she shows the least laxity in her service.	10
21	89	"As Goreans go," I said.	10
21	203	Most Goreans, of course, cannot afford the luxury of ice in the summer.	10
21	340	"And so, too, are Goreans, the brutes," she said.	10
21	589	Whereas there are wealth discrepancies on Gor which would dwarf most of those on Earth, for example, merchants who own ten thousand slaves and a hundred villas, and whose resources can raise armies and intimidate cities, most Goreans are economically pretty much of a muchness.	10
21	591	For example, as Goreans go, given the recent events on the river, I would count as being very well fixed, and yet I did not think that my position or resources were such as to seem outrageously out of the ordinary.	10
21	592	Caste tends to be more important to most Goreans than riches.	10

1	259	Goreans, on the whole, knew them only from legends, which, I had little doubt, owed their origins to forgotten times, to memories brought long ago to Gor from another world.	10
1	260	Such stories, for they were very old on Gor, probably go back thousands of years, dating from the times of very early Voyages of Acquisition, undertaken by venturesome, inquisitive creatures of an alien species, one known to most Goreans only as the Priest-Kings.	10
2	358	Many Goreans believe that all women are born for the collar, and that a woman cannot be truly fulfilled as a woman until a strong man puts it on her, until she finds herself reduced to her basic femaleness at his feet.	10
2	363	Goreans, though recognizing the legal and economic legitimacy of male slavery, do not regard it as possessing the same biological sanction as attaches to female slavery.	10
2	364	The natural situation, in the mind of many Goreans, is that the master/slave relation is one which ideally exists between man and woman, with the woman in the property position.	10

13	1721	Goreans often make use of their slaves for Ahn, devoting, say, a morning, an afternoon, an evening, a day, to her lengthy and detailed ravishments.	10
13	1722	Making love is something Goreans do, not something they get over with.	10
13	1726	Also, of course, at least among Goreans, she is treasured as an aware, sentient mind as well as a stripped, collared body.	10

2	57	On the other hand, before one is moved to pity or contempt, it should be recognized that most Goreans, for example, have access to a complex oral tradition, abetted by singers, story tellers, and such, and, too, that literacy is not as needed on Gor, nor is it as prized on Gor, as it is in certain o...	10

4	365	Protocols and customs are apparently extremely significant to Goreans.	10
6	362	Goreans, it seemed, paid attention to their environment.	10
8	95	How humiliating! The Goreans have a saying, "There are only two kinds of women, slaves—and slaves".	10
8	143	Goreans commonly pass in this fashion, the sword arms of right-handed individuals being thus on the side of the approaching stranger.	10
8	146	Goreans sometimes refer to such women as "strays".	10
18	228	It is no wonder, I thought, that Goreans make beautiful women slaves.	10
19	245	I had now been opened, as the Goreans might say, for the uses of men.	10
23	151	I feared I had sensed in me what might be the glimmerings of what Goreans speak of as slave fires.	10
26	234	In mentioning these things, one might also call to mind an aspect of these matters which is cultural to the Goreans, but is likely to overlooked by those not familiar with their culture.	10
26	239	Indeed, many Goreans, learning that most women of Earth, on their native world, go about unveiled, infers that they are all shameless slaves courting a collar in which they should be rightfully placed.	10
28	36	The general affection and respect which Goreans feel for the game of Kaissa is probably the explanation for the practical immunity from bondage commonly accorded the members of the caste of players.	10

1	74	During this time most Goreans remain within their houses.	10
1	91	It is also, for many Goreans, particularly those of the lower castes, a time of uneasiness, a time of trepidation and apprehension.	10
1	92	Who knows what things, visible or invisible, might be abroad during that terrible time? In many Gorean cities, accordingly, the Twelfth Passage Hand, the five days preceding the Waiting Hand, that time to which few Goreans look forward with eagerness, is carnival.	10
1	701	Owning, mastering and humbling the beautiful women of enemies, turning them into loving, dutiful, needful slaves, is relished by Goreans.	10

16	1057	It is one thing to play for a female, of course, for Goreans tend to regard such as fit for spoils and loot, particularly if they should be, to begin with, naught but properties, mere chattels, but it is quite another to set free males at stake.	10

24	433	The survival of the name and the continuance of the patrilineal line are important to many Goreans.	10
25	358	Also, although I suppose the matter is neither here nor there, Goreans also tend to prize women for such things as their intelligence, emotional depth, charm and personality.	10
25	360	The most fundamental property prized by Goreans in women, I suppose, though little is said about it, is her need for love, and her capacity for love.	10
25	372	It is sometimes amusing to Goreans when an Earth girl shows up in a Gorean slave market, insisting that her name is such and such, a name taken on Gor to be a slave name.	10
26	66	Goreans are sometimes nervous about such things.	10
26	620	I relit the lamp with the lighter, or as the Goreans say "fire-maker," from my pouch.	10
26	622	Goreans do not smoke, of course, but, as they commonly use natural flame for cooking and light, they find such a device, and others like it, utilizing springs and pyrites, with cartridges of oil-saturated tinder moss, and such, of great utility.	10

9	34	Goreans have an unusual reverence for tradition.	10
9	265	Though the word was not used of me I was also 'profalarina', which term designates the state preceding, and anticipating, that of "falarina," the state Goreans seem to think of as that of being a full woman, or, at least, as those of Earth might think of it, one who certainly is no longer a virgin.	10
10	560	That perhaps explains, at least in part, the momentousness of ear piercing to Goreans, which those of Earth take so much for granted.	10
11	219	Perhaps the reason such dances are seldom, if ever, seen on Gor, is that Goreans would not be likely to regard them as being "real dance".	10
11	708	Most Goreans take caste very seriously.	10
11	713	Most Goreans are proud of their castes and the skills appropriate to them.	10
11	714	Such skills, too, tend to be appreciated by other Goreans, and are not looked down on.	10
13	78	But Goreans believe, of course, that any woman, properly handled, becomes an excellent slave.	10
13	294	Perhaps the Goreans find such bellies rather too much like those of boys, or young men.	10

1	355	Even more sophisticated Goreans, however, if not of the Scribes or Builders, have been noted to speculate that lightning is the result of clouds clashing together in the sky, showering sparks, and such.	10
1	372	To be perfectly fair, however, most Goreans, and not just free women, will prefer the simple, jolting progress of a springless wagon to the often more rapid progress of a leather-slung fee cart.	10

1	419	It might also be mentioned, of course, that most Goreans do not approve of criminals.	10

7	35	The real attendant was probably upstairs in the paga room, enjoying cakes and Bazi tea, a breakfast popular with Goreans on holidays.	10
8	696	It is not hard to understand why Goreans are fond of enslaving females.	10
10	129	Too, besides their anger, these men were Goreans, and many of them regarded women as fit and natural slaves, and considered them in terms of the perfection of the collar.	10
10	132	Were they not all women? Many Goreans, for example, rejoiced in the situation in Tharna, where almost every female is a slave.	10
11	16	Goreans sometimes give Earth-girl names to Gorean girls, as they think of them as excellent slave names.	10
11	18	Some girls, too, coming to understand the sensuous connotations of their names on Gor come to regard them then no longer as common, or plain, names, but, like the Goreans, as thrilling, beautiful names, and come to revel in them, and try to live up to them, as superb slaves.	10
11	20	It is true that Earth girls are regarded as slave stock by Goreans, but I think, at least these days, that there is nothing special about this, really.	10
11	21	Women, as a whole, by many Goreans, are regarded as slave stock.	10
13	94	That she follows indicates that she is subservient, that he is master and she slave; that she follows on the left is a cultural matter probably indexed to the fact that most Goreans are right-handed.	10
16	291	It is not unusual for a Gorean, many Goreans, but particularly a guardsman, or a warrior, to carry various items of restraint or control in his pouch, for example, thongs, binding fiber, slave bracelets, thumb cuffs, a leash and collar, a nose ring and cord, such things.	10
21	482	Many Goreans believe that all women are natural slaves, and thus, in a sense, are all eminently suitable for the collar.	10
21	796	Lest some not understand their fury, let it be said, simply, that they were Goreans.	10
21	946	This is perhaps because Goreans tend to think of Earth women as slave stock.	10
21	948	Too, about the only Earth women Goreans are familiar with are those they buy from slave blocks.	10
21	1209	Goreans tend to find women excruciatingly beautiful, and that is doubtless why they put collars on them and own them.	10
21	1400	Many Goreans, incidentally, as is well known, regard Earth-girl names as slave names.	10
24	26	That, to Goreans, would be extremely important.	10
24	533	Goreans are efficient about such matters.	10
24	692	Goreans tend to be very sensitive to matters of ritual, tradition, custom, symbolism, and such.	10
24	715	Goreans, incidentally, in general, tend to be fond of gambling, often taking it, it seems, as a symbol of life, its hazards and its fortunes.	10
24	755	Most Goreans, save for occasional sacrifices, observations, donations to temples, and such, called for by the caste of Initiates, who claim to mediate between men and Priest-Kings, live their lives without much concern for Priest-Kings, and seem to hope that the Priest-Kings will return the favor, w...	10
24	758	All Goreans, on the other hand, are expected to make at least one pilgrimage during their lifetime to the Sardar Mountains, taken to be the home of Priest-Kings.	10

1	148	My own preference in these matters is to favor, on the whole, like most Goreans, simpler, shorter names for slaves, names which, like the collar, help to remind them that they are slaves.	10
1	716	She was a slave, and totally! She moved about, away and among the men, in her moment in the parade of slaves, on that dirt circuit among masters, Goreans, larls among men, uncrippled, unsoftened, untamed beasts, categorical, uncompromising owners of women, and she a woman, unutterably desirable and ...	10
1	830	It is a joke of young Goreans to sometimes whistle, or hum, such melodies, apparently innocently, in the presence of free women who, of course, are not familiar with them, and do not understand their origins or significance, and then to watch them become restless, and, usually, after a time, disturb...	10
12	257	It is dangerous, sometimes, to be a secret slave, then revealed, for Goreans do not like to be duped.	10
14	46	That women are the same as men, and should be treated as such would be regarded by Goreans as an insanity, and one which would be cruelly deprivational to the female, robbing her of her uniqueness, her delicious specialness, in a sense of her very self.	10
19	343	To be sure, most Goreans feel the brand also serves psychological and aesthetic purposes, for example, helping the girl to understand that she is now a slave and enhancing her beauty.	10
19	599	On the whole, I, like most Goreans, preferred opened women.	10
26	193	Obtaining women is one of the major reasons Goreans fight.	10
28	605	To be sure, once the slave has learned her condition, or learned her collar, as the Goreans say, she has no doubt whatsoever of this dominance, and her subjection to it.	10
29	168	To be sure, there are various marking sites utilized by Goreans.	10
34	12	I did not think he would mind if I "shared his kettle," as some of the Goreans say.	10

19	252	"Of men who are Goreans, and such as Goreans," she said, "women are the rightful slaves!" "And is your master such?" I asked.	10
1	193	Goreans are not ashamed of the luscious richness, the excitingness, the sensuousness, the femininity, the beauty of their slaves.	10
1	340	It surprised me that the people were kneeling, for, commonly, free Goreans do not kneel, even in the temples of the Initiates.	10
1	341	Goreans commonly pray standing.	10
3	157	Her bridges could be, as the Goreans have it, washed in blood.	10
3	310	Goreans, incidentally, doubt that any female is, qua female, irremediably or ultimately frigid.	10
3	942	Goreans, on the other hand, often accept, rather uncritically, in my mind, that the reader can actually read thoughts, or usually read them.	10
3	944	Similarly, less familiar with tricks, prestidigitation, illusions, and such, than an Earth audience, some Goreans believe in magic.	10
3	945	I have met Goreans who really believed, for example, that a magician can make a girl vanish into thin air and then retrieve her from the same.	10
3	948	Many Goreans will worry about such things as the tracks of spiders and the flights of birds.	10
8	13	Similarly, because of considerations such as congestion and noise, and perhaps aesthetics, which Goreans take seriously, wagons are not permitted on certain streets, and on many streets only during certain hours, usually at night or in the early morning.	10
8	413	Many Goreans enjoy owning highly intelligent, well-educated women.	10
8	991	To be sure, it did amuse me, in particular, as perhaps it would have most Goreans, to think of the proud women of Ar, of "Glorious Ar," as slaves.	10
9	687	I could remember when many Goreans had not even heard of them.	10
12	104	I do not think that Goreans would even understand that.	10
13	21	Such sports as these were familiar to Goreans, and had for years been privately practiced at numerous palestrae throughout the city.	10
17	21	It might be mentioned, at any rate, that many Goreans, particularly those of lower caste, and who are likely to have had access only to the "first knowledge," take things of this sort very seriously, believing they are witnesses not to tricks and illusions but to marvelous phenomena consequent upon ...	10
17	32	A last observation having to do with the tendency of some Goreans to accept illusions and such as reality is that the Gorean tends to take such things as honor and truth very seriously.	10
17	35	On the other hand, I do not encourage lying to Goreans.	10
17	234	Certainly many Goreans whom I regarded as much more intelligent than I took such things with great seriousness.	10
18	588	I could well imagine many Goreans leaping upon him with a knife under such circumstances, or, at any rate, looking him up later with that in mind, having discovered their loss in the meantime.	10
19	843	For most Goreans the matter is immaterial.	10
22	619	Because there are many Goreans who cannot read, many stores, shops, and such, will utilize various signs and devices to identify their place of business.	10
22	631	Physicians, interestingly, perhaps for a similar reason, tend to keep records in archaic Gorean, which is incomprehensible to most Goreans.	10
22	647	Normally Goreans keep to the left sides of streets and roads, as is proper, given that most men are right-handed.	10
23	15	When Goreans get the idea that honor is involved they suddenly become quite difficult to deal with.	10
24	163	To be sure, Goreans tend to take their free women very seriously, though perhaps not as seriously as the free women are inclined to take themselves.	10
28	29	It becomes, in a sense, the foundation of meaning, and, for Goreans, it is anterior to meaning, and precedes meaning.	10
28	100	Goreans are not stupid.	10

10	294	Goreans who know of Earth, and many now do, hold it in great contempt, and enjoy having its women as their slaves.	10
11	596	She did not know this at the time but many Goreans can tell the difference between free women and female slaves, even when the latter are clothed in the garments of the former, so internalized, so ingredient, so manifest is femininity in the female slave.	10
11	781	Goreans do not.	10
11	864	But would most not wish weak foes? Only Goreans, she supposed, desired strong foes, perhaps that they might be the better tested, that an ensuing victory might be the more worth winning.	10
13	86	Then, one by one, she began to lift up and shake out the washed, damp garments, and hang them on the line, fastening them there, carefully, with the lovely hand-carved clothespins, for Goreans are prone to lavish attention even on small things, spoons, knives, cooking prongs, and such, anything to m...	10
13	280	In this sense, some Goreans speculate that the bodies of women were designed for bonds.	10
13	636	Goreans like this.	10
13	638	Goreans, you see, tend to be great believers in rank, distance and hierarchy.	10
16	540	That Earth women are seldom veiled is taken by most Goreans, at least those familiar with the second knowledge, as evidence that we are slaves.	10
16	873	On the whole, however, Goreans tend to be remarkably free of vulgarity, perhaps because their world is, on the whole, so much more innocent, natural and conducive to human happiness than at least one other world.	10
17	24	Goreans, of course, are of human stock.	10
17	204	To be sure, many Goreans do not believe that slaves are to be trusted.	10
17	735	The Goreans, she saw, and now well understood, were not gentlemen, or certainly not "gentlemen" in a common "Earth sense" of the term.	10
17	902	Many Goreans, incidentally, fear falling in love with their slaves.	10
18	143	Goreans, of course, as used to them as those of Earth to their sidewalks, utilized them almost invariably.	10
18	169	But how could one tell them from Gorean beauties? Did they not all seem lovely in their collars? Ellen knew that some Goreans referred to Earth as a "slave planet".	10
18	633	Too, Goreans have high standards for slave dance.	10
21	93	Elsewhere she supposed that the stream was not more than three or four feet deep, or, as the Goreans would have it, who tended to think of water from the bottom up, three or four feet high.	10
22	6	Goreans do not eschew emotion; eagerness, zeal, warmth, heat and passion are common with them; they tend to be vehement, hearty, cordial, enthusiastic, ardent, impetuous; they are quick to anger, quick to forget, quick to laugh; they do not pretend to subscribe to obvious falsehoods; they value trut...	10
22	132	See them dance before masters! Goreans believe that slave dance lurks in every woman's belly.	10
22	135	Perhaps that is what the Goreans, in their typically straightforward and natural way, recognized.	10
22	205	For example, many Goreans of low caste are illiterate.	10
22	214	Goreans had not been free with that information.	10
22	222	Goreans, she knew, whereas they might be interested in her in many respects, as she had abundant evidence to attest, were not likely to be interested in her in that respect.	10
22	497	This is not to claim, of course, that Goreans instituted female slavery in order to satisfy the needs of women.	10
22	528	Sometimes the cup is first warmed at the breasts, for Goreans commonly drink wine warm, or pressed meaningfully against the slave's lower belly, the hard rim of the cup pressed inward, severely, against her yielding flesh.	10
24	79	A consideration favoring this possibility is that left-handed Goreans will also, commonly, have their sleen, their slaves, and such, follow on the left.	10
24	259	These men, these Goreans, these brutes, are so different from the men of my world.	10
24	309	Goreans want to know what they are buying.	10
24	489	It is one of several reasons, such as the failure to speak Gorean, which tends to make Goreans regard Earth females as barbarians, as natural slaves, as slave stock.	10
25	878	Goreans do not buy clothed women.	10
25	1004	Goreans respect wealth but tend to value other attributes more highly, and, indeed, to the credit of the Merchants, it should be noted that they usually do so, as well.	10
26	590	Many Goreans buy women on speculation.	10
26	1378	For most Goreans that is a considerable amount of money.	10
27	795	There seems to be some division among Goreans on this matter.	10
27	1700	Goreans like to lead from the front.	10
27	2080	As with most Goreans, they did not much care for traitors.	10
27	2651	Goreans, of all castes, are skilled at thonging, braceleting, binding and such.	10
27	2856	Goreans, you see, do not coddle their slave girls.	10
27	3260	Goreans love and respect nature.	10
28	227	Would not any male? Goreans, interestingly, believe the mistake was that we had not been made slaves on Earth.	10
28	229	Many Goreans also misunderstand the vaccination marks on many of us, taking them for a discreet slave mark, far inferior of course, in precision and beauty, to the various slave marks of Gor, usually burned into the thigh under the left hip.	10
29	337	Many Goreans, incidentally, assume that "Earth" is a remote locale or land on their own world.	10
29	338	"You speak of yourself as civilized," said Portus Canio, "say, in contradistinction, from Goreans?" "Yes," said Ellen, a little uncertainly.	10
30	49	Naturally enough then, that women of Earth not unoften so adorn themselves, and may appear in public so adorned, is taken by most Goreans, at least those who believe it, as evidence that they are slaves, and thus of their fittingness to be placed upon the auction block, appearing before masters to b...	10
30	50	Some Goreans seem to prefer Earth women as slaves; others prefer native Gorean women; I would not think it would make much difference; they are all women; doubtless it depends on the particular woman and man, on the particular slave and master, on the particular "chemistry," so to speak; on the othe...	10
