Awards

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 expeditious award.

 

The Month of June 1999 this awards goes to......taaa, daaaaaa (bugles blare) -- and because there are so many we have TWO winners this month gosh if we gave 10 ! awards, we'd have more nominations left

However there are some male slaves who willingly submit to a Mistress.

It takes a strong Man to find his place, an even stronger man to admit his place.

Nominators Name: Jarl

I Nominate: The Red Silk Tavern

url: The Red Silk Tavern - http://www.geocities.com/Athens/Parthenon/7891/homepage.html

Your E mail: JarlofAr@hotmail.com

Why: A representative of so many such pages.

Description: I discovered this web page when I joined the channel on Austnet by similar name.

I was fortunate enough to talk to Jalarl, who told me that "Jalarl" means "brother to the larl". Regretfully, I got kicked out when I mentioned that there was nothing in the books to substantiate his claim.

I've chosen this web page because it is typical of so many such webPagess; it attempts to create a version of Gor without having bothered to do any research.

None of the choice cuts you see below will surprise you, because you will have seen them all before - the same old story on hundreds of different web pages, just a slightly newer variation. He does have a nice background, though.


Your tavern host and his first girl are definitely NOT your typical Goreans. Jalarl is a one collar master and his collar is permanently locked on rosey's graceful neck. On July 2nd they will celebrate their first year together.

As an agent of the Priest Kings, Jalarl is able to travel to Earth and back at will. On Gor, Jalarl is a warrior and tarnsman of Thentis. On Earth, he is also a member of The Brotherhood of the Elite Guard, a group of D/s practitioners that advocates for safe, sane, consensual and caring D/s practices.

Describe yourself to unowned slaves you meet and ask if they are interested in obtaining a master. When you find interested slaves, get a detailed description from them on their appearance, likes and dislike. It is suggested that you place an un inscribed (blank) collar on the slave during the training period.

The tavern master is a tall, muscular man, with long bond hair, steel blue eyes, Viking good looks and a calm demeanor. He wears the red tunic of the warrior caste and carries in his belt the two yellow strands of binding fiber that mark him as a man of Thentis.

Tavern slaves at the Red Silk wear _RST collars. Not all _RST slaves are red silk, however, some are yellow silk, some white silk, and the trainees are always white silk.

The brand is usually placed on the inner thigh of the left leg

Masters are advised that branding is a very frightening experience for your slaves and they should be prepared psychologically well in advance of the branding if possible.

A slave in training usually receives white silks because she is not trained and therefore not ready to wear silks of any other color. The color of the slave's silks indicate the conditions that their master has placed upon them. White silk slaves are reserved for the intimate use of the master only.

It is such pages and channels as these that make up much of on-line Gor, the same part of on-line Gor that we are very quick to say we have no part of.

I'm not sure that making owning handguns in the States illegal will irradicate gun crime, but irradicating such web pages/channels from the WWW would go a long way to making on-line Gor Gorean.

Well, I can dream.
