"Winners", cut and paste this to your web site

The Gorean Voice recognizes, that there are a lot of web pages claiming to be Gorean. In viewing many, if not most of them, we find few that follow closely the writings, of John Norman, and tend to portray the html authors' vision of Gor. In that light, The Gorean Voice has an award that will be given monthly , to sites, that in its' opinion, are NOT representative of the Gorean way; but in fact are grossly false, or misleading. Fill out the application below, to have a gorean web site considered for this very prestigious award.

February 5, 1998: HAPPY BIRTHDAY, MALI! (Warrior/Owner of the channel) Now, many Master would have let their slaves take their birthday spankings for them. But not Mali...oh no! He bravely stood at the post and took it like the Master he is...all 46 (45 plus 1 to grow on) solid thwacks of a solid kalana-wood paddle, especially made for the occasion, paid for with Mali's gold of course, and carved with a delightful rendition of a wulf's head on one side and a panther's head on the other. VelvtMask graciously offered Mali a jar of healing salve so that he wouldn't be sitting too tenderly.

Nominated by: Sherlyn
I Nominate: Gor 101
url: http://http://home.earthlink.net/~monogue/Gor101.html
Why?: This site deals with BDSM and other aspects of human sexuality.

Description: There are too many to include, but since I'm a FW I'll list that which I find to be just utterly silly.

pearl{LN} hosts a Master... Mistress... slave ... Gor Info class every *Monday nite* 6 PST, 7 MST, 8 CST, 9 EST at: #Lord_Nyarls_Hall_Classroom on BeyondIRC Net (babylon.beyondirc.net 6667 or irc.beyondirc.net: 6667 ) Gorean basics will be covered.. drinks.. food.. serves.. castes.. rules.. webURLs..etc. 'tis a 15 ehn (minute) presentation, then 13 files to download, with a question and answer period at the end. All are welcome.

Nominator's comment: This is charming, truly, I know that I want to go learn how to be a BDSM Domme, oh, I mean gorean FW from a <cough> kajira.

Nominator's comment: Next is the page of instruction on how to be a FW by a "furry" Mistress Megera. Here are the choicest tidbits of instruction

2. More freewoman info >>> freewomen who do not wear veils are going to be thot of usually as slaves....or certainly potential slaves. The robes of concealment are not mandetory...but if you do not have strong protectors, you are a fool not to wear them. The exception are those who are out for sport - a tunic and hose, a light veil and gloves and high boots are worn then. and of course, barberians don't count...but are usually thot of as natural slaves.

5. Never go into an alcove - that's for slaves.

6. If they can't afford a room for you both....they just aren't classy enough to be seen with you anyway.

Nominator's comment: I didn't know IRC query windows were so expensive!

8. Freewomen can carry weapons if they like. they can do just about anything they like.

4. And yes.... the man of the house is considered the absolute ruler of his house. Females are considered, even the esteemed freecompanion, to be chattel - property - in most ways, tho not, of course, a slave. if any other man tried that, he'd be in BIIIIIG trouble. But your husband can do as he pleases - he is your master because, frankly, he's going to be bigger than you.

15. If a woman CAN slay a man, what prevents her? - only the laws of the city. - if murder is against the law, she will be tried.

17. Women who want to be freewomen on gor would be advised to watch a movie called 'a lion in winter'. Elenor of Aquitaine was a very powerful woman. Yet her husband kept her locked in a tower. he could do nothing with her properties or anythying else becaus of the way the marriage was. But she could not get away from him, really, either.

Nominator's comment: There are hundreds of other things wrong with this site *laughs* and I am not even going to presume to point out the mistakes for the 'Master' training pages or even bother reading the 'slave' training pages.

Nominator's comment: Gor 101 is one of the recommended links of #Ko-ro-ba Gardens. I don't expect much more from them and their copyright thieving excuse from an RPG gor web site. They are incidently found at:

http://www.geocities.com/Area51/Dreamworld/5030/gardens1.html

Nominator's comment: Perhaps I should recommend them as well. Just look at their pages on being kidnaped to gor in flying saucers as their 'biographies' (notice the true to life pictures! *g*) to see how much they also deserve this prestigious award.
