Our Children: What Should They See? |
||
|
Debate:April 2000 Point: By Cormerius In Gorean society we constantly here discussions on various merits of being a FW or a slave. We constantly run into different society castes, we even at times run the gamut from being serious to being overwhelmed with gamers who seek to turn the gorean values into an RPG game online, but there is one area of gorean philosophy that we hardly ever see touched on and that is the children of our lifestyle. What place do these little angels and demons have in our lifestyle. They are after all the after-effect of our nights of pleasure and debauchery, sometimes times conceived with love and tenderness and at other times conceived from one too many adventures after a night of swilling paga. Do we hide our future behind closed doors never publicly acknowledging their existence. Or do we embrace them openly and teach them the values that we ourselves hold dear to our hearts. After all how can a child learn honesty and integrity if they never see it applied in their lives by those close to them. How can our sons grow up to be warriors, scholars, physicians, kaissa players if we never teach them the rudimentary skills needed to follow those pursuits. Lets not forget, we also have daughters in this world of gorean values as well. What values do we teach them? Do we take them to dance recitals and poetry readings? Do we teach them that society has taken the role of being a female and twisted it into an abomination of conflicting standards never being sure whether it's right to express your hearts desires or whether you should suppress natural emotions? Children can only learn from the examples that are set by those around them. If they see violence in the home sooner or later that violence will become their natural response. If they see firm consistant discipline, they will likewise be conditioned in a similar manner. If they see free companions discussing issues and implementing family policies they will learn accordingly. The same goes for Master/slave relationships, if the Master and slave reach conclusion on subjects and the slave submits willingly and happily to the decisions they impart a positive impact on a child, if they see the Master enforce his will thru violence of actions they will learn to cower and run lest they become the subjects of that same violence of action. When you walk the path of the gorean ways as a Master remember that you have by far the hardest responsibility of all. You carry with you not only the fate of your slaves and free companions. You carry the weight of your future generations as well. So remember this the next time you strap a feed bag to a sluts face to force feed her gruel or the next time you compliment a slaves serve. Your future generations are out there watching and learning so teach them well.

Counterpoint: By Nyre It is pretty unlikely that only single white females are out there in this medium of philosophy called Gor. That would equally include, men, baggage free as well. So that leaves us with the fashion that indeed children are an aspect of Gor. Children by prior marriage, by future relationships are all an aspect. What level though as a parent are we required to share with them? How much should they see? We are required by law of ethics to support and raise our children in a responsible home, providing food, shelter, emotional support, clothing, and any other need that is mandatory in making a productive adult. This is often not the case in the majority of civilization, as children are starving, and we can not feed them all. It does not even by half cover the crack babies abandoned, the homeless, and the lost. A child that is born of a mother, and father that believes in the ethos of Norman’s work will see the strength of character in his father, the consistency in his mother, and two very well adjusted adults that both have a path they are happy with. In the peace that comes with living this natural order, the patience and understanding in raising children is paramount. The child sees this, they know this, and most of all children understand far more then we want to know. Children should never be present to witness any sexual act, discipline, or other measures that a Master requires of a slave. Sexuality is confusing to them at best, I am not an advocate for the nude family sharing the bed with a child until he is 10. Infants a different story all together, there is a bonding process that is a mandate between both parents. Teenagers can barely cope with their homework loads these days, we see this is a truth when the violence is rabid in our education system. To see a nude woman at the feet of their parent, would distract and confuse them from what they are required to do and be. A productive adult. It is my opinion that when slaves are at the feet of men, children are not. That when sexual items are available to the eyes of children, it is an error of the parent, that the parent breaks his law of ethics. They should see the strings in which lace this strong reality that we live. The benefits of strong men and women who aren’t ashamed to be exactly who they are. They do not need to witness the small privacies of adults in any form. This is a serious form of child abuse, and those that claim otherwise have little regard for a sacred trust of raising innocents.
I have often pondered speaking on these matters out of my own experience. I have heard many attempt to write on such topics, often the author’s do not have children, they only can guess, perhaps use logical assumption at best. There is a time and a place for every action and reaction. What portion of Gorean philosophy should we instill in our daughters, and sons. It is a simple answer for a heated topic, we instil protection, ethics, and our axiom of Gor, anything other then that becomes an issue of decency, and honor. We know that these two words run high in the life we lead. That those words strike us close to our hearts. They are without doubt the foundation to any home stone.
I am a mother of two sons. They are my life, and my focus rests on their well being always. I find it very easy never to stray from that point. Regardless of my entity, my life choice. I have had slaves in my home, without any err of uncomfortableness. They behaved according to my standards, my levels. Also to add, without a doubt, even if my standards were not as they were, these women would have refused to participate in any activity that would belittle that which they are. They would prefer to disobey a free person then put children at risk. Both women are incredible examples of slaves, and should know they were pleasing that week, and they served well. I would have them in my home whenever the opportunity presented itself. I am proud to know them both. Nyre nyre@home.com © Copyright March 2000
