re using 'My' .........

[pup]

as you can see i have just put a small selection of quotes ... there many more where the word is use my ---- it is not about owning the Owner its more of saying that person is my Owner. as the quote below mean it is manly used for when your talk or with your Owner its seperates them from being just any Master or Mistress.

The expression 'my master' is not an uncommon one among Gorean slaves girls but it is almost invariably reserved for use with a legal master.

From Kajira of Gor. Page 361

My master extended his cup to me, and I, kneeling, filled it with Sul paga. I pressed my lips to the cup, and handed it to him. My eyes smarted. I almost felt drunk from the fumes.
I withdrew.
Sul paga is, when distilled, though the Sul itself is yellow, as clear as water. The Sul is a tuberous root of the Sul plant; it is a Gorean staple. The still, with its tanks and pipes, lay within the village, that of Tabuk´s Ford, in which Thurnus, our host, was caste leader.
"Excellent," said my master, sipping the Sul paga. He could have been commenting only on the potency of the drink, for Sul paga is almost tasteless. One does not guzzle Sul paga. Last night one of the men had held my head back and forced me to swallow a mouthful. In moments things had gone black, and I had fallen unconscious. I had awakened only this morning, ill, miserable, with a splitting headache, chained with the other girls.

Slave Girl of Gor, page 134

She laughed. "If I win," she said, "you give me your bole,
 which I will present to my master."
 "Agreed," I said. "And if I should win?"

lovely wench from Turia would not, could she help it, spend
      a night again similar to her first in the encampment of
      Tuchuks. "Where will you sleep tonight, Slave?" Kamchak
      had demanded. "If my master will permit," said the girl, with
      great apparent sincerity, "at his feet." Kamchak laughed.
      "Get up, Lazy Girl," said he, "the bask need watering." Grate-
      fully Aphris of Turia had taken up the leather buckets and
      hurried away to fetch water.

If you are washed and readied," said a young thrall, collared, in a kirtle of white wool, "it is permissible to present yourselves before the high seat of the house, before my master, Svein Blue Tooth, Jarl of Torvaldsland."

"Thank you, bond-maid," said he.
            She put down her head.
            "You are pretty, bond-maid," he said.
            "Thank you, my Jarl," she said.
            He looked after her, as she sped

re: this request

I would think that this is not a practice in Gor as I would Think the girl. ladd ((Slave)) would only call there Master/Mistress By either Master ,Jarl...Mistress...I can not see the Meaning as to why You would want a request like this re?Name eg Debbi....My girls within Gor would not call Me nor Joe....JOE or NYAH

I know the issue of Msn has been discussed many times as to if it is involved in the everyday life on Gor....so nura please find Me the quote in the books telling Me that Msn IS or Is not involved in Gor...I need an answer.....

Thankyou Nyah

((This is just so we know where we stand as far as Quotes go))

Thankyou Pel for the interaction and thankyou nura for the research...This should be done more often as it brings interesting information out *s*for us all to Debate on

To my Mistress and to Jarl Pelagon

Thank you for both your replies.

I will answer very easily and given you a quote that might help. To show that slaves did use the name of there Owner but they where extremely punished for it. There is another quote too but I am not sure where it is however i did find one where even others Free or slave wouldn’t mention the name of a Free due to magic or there enemies find out there name.

"Hassan!" screamed Alyena, from below. I smiled to myself. She had dared to soil the name of her master by putting it on her lips which, though beautiful, were only those of a slave. Girls are not, commonly, permitted to speak the name of their master. He is addressed as, or responded to, as "Master" or "my Master." If Hassan survived, he would. I suspected, well beat her for this lapse. Some masters, it might be noted. However, permit the girl to speak their name, if it is accompanied by an acknowledgement of title, as in, say, "Hassan, Master," or "Hassan, my Master." Hassan, however, was not so lenient: he had, as yet, not permitted his pretty Alyena this liberty. I had little doubt, should he survive, the lovely, little wench would be well whipped for her oversight, her agonized outburst, bordering on insolence.

Tribesman of Gor. E-book page 224.

Moreover, Goreans are extremely sensitive about names, and who may speak them. Indeed, some, particularly those of low caste, even have use names, concealing their true names, lest they be discovered by enemies and used to conjure spells against them. Similarly, slaves, on the whole, do not address free men by their names. Kuurus surmised that Portus, doubtless a man of importance, had been troubled by the little fool Hup on more than one occasion, and had now decided to do away with him.

From Assassins of Gor, pg 12

However my Mistress and Jarl we are not talking about Gor here we are talking about msn.

Now when John Norman wrote the books there was and is no mention of msn as it wasn’t about back then and online Gor is not msn unless it is agreed by the people using it as being part of Gor.

As far as I am aware and I can check my msn histories I have never ever agreed to using it as part of Gor with anyone other then talking, I will be polite but I am a 44 yr old women and lived life to the fullest and I do study. I have never ever said my Nyah in the room and if I do so in msn I do it with love and respect as in a term of endearment. I have never ever said I Own my Mistress I am not possessive with her she has her own life like I have my Own life.

So I cannot come up with a quote for msn in John Norman book and I doubt anyone can unless Jarl Pelagon knows of such quote’s I would love to learn and read them and add to my further knowledge and growth as a Gorean slave.

yours faithfully
