this one has to say, she thinks the religious nuts are far worse..*shudder*

Actually, the consentual definition on dictionary.com referred only to a legal term, not one in common everyday usage.

I snipped out all that coding. But you left out where your source says "[Origin: consent + -al1, with -u- after consensual, or by assoc. with phonetically similar accentual, eventual, etc.] "

And if you click on the word "consensual" you'll see the definition "1. formed or existing merely by consent: a consensual transaction."

Wow... an eyeopener... Another one who cannot see beyond his own box of ultimate and only truths.

time for a wake-up call

a) there ARE people who like to be in pain. If not for real, then still in fantasy. That is both RL and/or RP. You make assumptions about something you know nothing about.

b) for the same there are people who like to give pain.

c) this goes also for people having D/s relations, FemDom, Diaper-fetishes, age-play, pp and so on...
Some things you are TOUGHT that are dirty, but why? Because of the "common nature of the herd: humanity"... Like being peed/scatting on by someone?: yuck, unheard of. You are sick if yuo do it. So you are labelled a sicko/pervert and should get some mental health?

No. If you like that kind of things and do it in private (not public) then who is to judge them? Not you or me.

As for me calling the kettle black, me being the pot I dont understand.

I'm not glorifying RL Rape, slavery or anything else. I'm only putting things in PERSPECTIVE.

But if you can even make that distinction, every discussion about it with you is moot.

I am not surprised that this topic has come up. I do find it disturbing that there are some that think rape is the entire basis of this lifestyle.Especially here in SL.

Yes I said Lifestyle. I live as close to the books as is humanly possible in my first life. I also am a character in SL Gor. I can say without a doubt or error that I have NEVER been raped in either realm by a Gorean Male. I HAVE however been raped IRL by nonGorean vermin. I have been killed twice by Gorean Males because of my actions but NEVER raped. The ONLY way for nonconcentual sex/rape to happen in SL is ...... Aww hell, you can't rape the willing so this isn't even a real situation. Why would anyone even WANT to rape anyone in SL when there are true sluts/ sex slaves/ pleasure slaves/ unrestricted slaves/ coin sluts to use whenever One wants?? Just makes no sense to me or any other Gorean that actually follows RP rules for that type action.

That said I do think there needs to be addressed one thing along this same line. People coming into the SL Gor sims that are there just to "rape" a slave need to realise that the Masters don't take kindly to their property being violated and it can and will get your character tortured/ killed and/or banned forever from that sim. We are all pretty closely tied so going from one to another will eventually get you banned from every Gor site on SL. I suggest you follow the rules and ask permission before just coming in and taking what you want. Role play things properly and You never know what might happen if you ask


Mew wishes Y/you all well and hope to see Y/you REAL soon!

Collins Cobuild Advanced learner's English Dictionary only has one spelling for consensual and that's consensual

Thanks hun. Not into the Gorean thing at all....but if others wish to indulge, then good luck to them.

I see myself as an intelligent dominatrix....lol

You go to your dictionary, I will go to mine.

you said it friend! this one has been trying to say that pretty much but some will never get the point even if you hit them on the head with it.

Rape and Gor in the same thread, I'm tellin' ya folks this forum is gonna go out with a BANG, I hope the grid never comes up!

While on this subject.....Has anyone been to Hard Alley? This is a forced sex area. I have teetered around there in my heels on a couple of times....the sex is there if you want it.....and there is the point...if you want it. The slaves are in the same position, so to speak, and can tp out whenever they wish. They don't as a rule as they like the role play. Remember this is SL, not RL......vERA

This thread makes me really uncomfortable.

I mean, I can't tell if I'm supposed to be relieved that it's not another 'OMG! Ageplayers!', or dismayed that it's exactly the same thing, with barely any context change for the wording.

Moral outrage in SL is the shittiest Mad-Lib I've ever seen. I know there's no way to stop the weekly protester from flying off the handle, but can we at least get some different categories in here? Maybe some plywood cube haters? Or AI-rights activists pushing for improved treatment of Xcite! bits?

Yeah but sadly, they log off and kill themselves, IRL. (In real life) or off their kids. It has happend among many IRC Gorean communities. Don't lie to yourself that Gorean woman arn't the most super depressed women in SL.

there are domanant females in gor too as well as males. They are called Mistresses. and this one doesn't mind that you are not into the gor thing, most of her friends are not either.

Sources please.

they are not.. this one is one of them. and this one has a kid in rl and would never dream of doing anything to hurt them. for you to say that without knowing someone for sure is just wrong, please stop putting everyone into your little mold. simply because someone who should not be doing it in the first place had something bad happen, it does not mean everyone else is like that.

Wow, what a generalization......*shakes her head and puts on whore clothes*

Got any proof of this to back up your statement? I just happen to be a VERY happy Gorean female. Most of the ones I know are too so before you start making head up the ass statements, you MIGHT want to get to know more than one.

this one has said that a few times.. they don't seem to get it.

a/s/l?

I understand that, but still... As that person explained, she has a complete other RL mindset. Being able to write in "lesser perfect" grammar sentences is an art too. It works both ways.

But the point I was trying to make, is that that aspect is overseen by a lot of people.

I think people are making a lot assumptions about the "Rape" in gorean sims and in the Gor books without actual knowledge of how it was presented.

Norman objectifies the Slave Girl into a woman who is sexually arroused to the extreme by there mere thought of a Gorean Male. Thus even when she is raped she not only consents but orgasms and enjoys it.

The slave girls in the books do not wish rape but its more for the fact they would prefer sex with Masters they find more desirable. When the Men they didnt want actually approach them they are willing and aroused. Of course real women are not like that. Real men arent like the Goreans in the books either. Its more a distillation of the biological function of sex, since the author wants to prove his point that the relationships between men and women suffer by the adoption of masculine traits by women or the denial of a man's masculine ones.

Not only are the rapes in Second Life Gor not really rapes, but most of the "rape/slave rape" occuring in the Gorean novels arent even fictional depictions of rape. Now everyone may disagree and decry all this nonsense on the author of Gor's part, but to claim that SL Goreans are glorifying rape as we define it in Modern America is incorrect.

I know. It's not part of Gor books, but it has grown due to the online experiences, mainly IRC as far as I know. But it got it's own life and is now (or becoming) "defacto" for Gor and D/s societies (mostly virtual, but I can imagine RL too )

sissypoo! *snuggles*
