Message: Emoticon Listing HTML Help	[quote]Thank you for the kind words. Can't tell you how much it means to know the work is really used ~laughing~ You are right, there isn't anything there on the site at the moment that would remotely relate to this topic. It probably falls under a larger section that is unfortunately early in the stages of progress on the topic of Psychology of Slavery. You got a laugh with the question of being too anal, a question asked in my mind so often! Glad to know there are others ~L~ My opinions are much the same as yours from my understanding of the books, and i wonder if one can be too anal about anything that changes the flavor and texture of Gor. To take something, in this case the reference to being an owned animal, a beast, a slut - designed to instill in a slave a deeper level of her place, and glamorize it -maybe even trivialize it- as might be done currently in popular culture does change the nature of things. i do recall moments of epiphany in the books in which a slave internally accepts and revels in the place men have put her in, at their feet, owned, an animal, a needful slut. But i am not sure that is the same as dancing around delightedly referring to herself as "His wee beastie" ~s~ HOWEVER...there are online, men who command their slaves to refer to themselves only as beasts, and in such circumstances a girl would be adhering to the spirit of the books in doing as he wishes, if not so much the letter of the books. i'm afraid i haven't given this the depth i would have wanted, but after putting off responding last night in favor of entertaining a migraine i wanted to at least get a response here before dashing off to work this morning. Fabulous post for discussion though! Please toss up thoughts and ponderings ANY time ~s~ [/quote]

Thank you for the kind words. Can't tell you how much it means to know the work is really *used* ~laughing~
