One justification, incidentally, aside from a greater splendor of garmenture, and a greater dignity, and such, for the discrepancy between the garmenture of the free woman and the slave is that the difference is designed to lessen the dangers of predation amongst free women, and divert the acquisitions of thong and collar to slaves. - (Captive of Gor, Chapter 14, Sentence #424)

Perhaps the free women wish that they, too, might similarly display their own beauty to men. It is said that some free women keep slave garments hidden in their compartments, and sometimes don them, before mirrors, or hold them folded against tear-stained cheeks. Many Goreans believe that there is a slave in every woman. One justification, incidentally, aside from a greater splendor of garmenture, and a greater dignity, and such, for the discrepancy between the garmenture of the free woman and the slave is that the difference is designed to lessen the dangers of predation amongst free women, and divert the acquisitions of thong and collar to slaves. The roving tarnsman, with his leather loops at the side of his saddle, thinking of trying "chain luck," the scrutinizing slaver, with his capture loops and notebooks, engaged in the commerce of women, may surely better assess a half-naked quarry.

To be sure, free women are not immune to capture. Some, doubtless, are secretly scouted in the public baths. - (Captive of Gor, Chapter 14)
