Quite!

I like Gor, it is an interesting collection of one set of ideals. I have adopted a few since they fit into my personality and our desires. I would however not consider adopting the whole package, because they are simply not me, nor would they ever fit in with our lifestyle. The same applies to Old School/Old Guard practices and philosophies.

As Sir Russell said, please take it slowly. Spend a little time in the sea of submission with the water just up to your ankles. If you like that, then wade in a little deeper. It is far better to be safe and enjoy than to plunge in too deep and get over whelmed or 'fail' with unreasonable or impractically high ideals.

Hugs - and wishing you a wonderful journey of exploration. I loved and am loving every step of mine!
