Gor & largely the Gorean Lifestyle.

[tessa]

I know nothing about the Gorean books, lifestyle or mindset. Admittedly, I know little more about the BDsM lifestyle. What I do know and have very strong opinions about is that as responsible, mature, law-abiding (except for laws on sodomy...just can't abide by those) citizens, we all have the right to conduct our lives as we so decide. If the people involved are in agreement with what is going on and are happy doing it, then so be it. And especially in a community such as this, no one should ever feel as if some part of who they happen to be needs to be kept a secret for fear of discrimination in any form! I guess this post's motivation comes from the the comment blizz made about coming "out of the Gorean closet" and facing "scorn and criticism" while doing it...struck a raw nerve, I suppose. I mean no offense with my words. Just hoping that in a world so filled with intolerance and hatred, none of that evil will seep in here as well.

To add...Google "real life Gorean perspective". You can sift through the links and read whatever you like. I visited a few different sites and found out a bit more about this unknown-to-me subject.
