       Slave Positions

       Bara
       This is the prone form of the positions known as ‘standard
       binding positions”.
       A slave lays flat on her belly, her head turned to the left. She
       crosses her wrists in the small of her back, then crosses her
       ankles, keeping her legs straight.
       ”’Bara, kajira!’ he said. She rolled quickly to her stomach,
       placing her wrists behind her, crossed, and crossing her ankles,
       ready to be bound.”
       Explorers of Gor, p. 77
       “‘Bara’, said Mincon to Tula. ‘Bara’, said I to Feiqa. Both
       slaves went immediately to their bellies, their heads to the
       left, their wrists crossed behind their backs, their ankles also
       crossed. It is a common binding position.”
       Mercenaries of Gor, p. 145
       Belly
       A slave lays on her belly and places the palms of her hands on
       either side of her head, her forehead pressed to the ground.
       ”’Stop’, he said. ‘To your belly’. Then I was on my belly, on
       the tiles, my hands at the sides of my head, prone, before his
       curule chair.”
       Kajira of Gor, p. 427
       “‘Belly’, I said to Feiqa. Immediately Feiqa, trembling, went to
       her belly on the stained, sooted stones near the fire.”
       Mercenaries of Gor, p. 19
       Bracelets
       A slave turns her back to her Master, places her hands behind
       her back and brings her wrists together in preparation for being
       bound; she holds her head high. In the examples I have found in
       the books, the slaves are not kneeling, but standing, in
       ‘bracelets’ position.
       “‘Stand’, he said. She did so.
       ‘Bracelets’, he said. She looked at him, with hatred.
       ‘Bracelets’, he snapped. She put her head in the air and placed
       her hands behind her back. Marlenus locked bracelets on her.
       They were slave bracelets.”
       Hunters of Gor, p. 146
       “‘Stand, girl’, I said to her in Gorean. Gracefully she stood. I
       observed her.
       ‘Bracelets!’ I said in Gorean, harshly. The girl snapped to
       position, hands behind the small of her back, head lifted, chin
       up, turned to the left. In such a posture she may be
       conveniently put in bracelets, and leashed.
       ‘Kneel’, I told her. Again she knelt, in the position of the
       pleasure slave.”
       Tribesmen of Gor, p. 78
       “‘Stand straighter’, he said. I stood straighter. ‘What do you
       have there?’ I said. He had removed a pair of light bracelets,
       joined by about five inches of light chain, from his pouch.
       ‘Slave bracelets’, he said. ‘Turn around, facing the door, your
       hands behind your back.’ Almost numbly I did so. I heard him
       approach me. Then he stood behind me, quietly, not moving.
       Perhaps he was looking at me. Then, suddenly, I felt the two
       bracelets flung about my wrists, striking them, encircling them
       and snapping shut.”
       Kajira of Gor, p. 132
       Blanket
       I then threw the second blanket, the top blanket over her,
       covering her completely. When a blanket, or cloak, or covering
       of any sort, is thrown over a slave like this she may not speak
       or rise. She must remain as she is, silent, until the master ,
       or some free man, lifts the covering away."
       Explorers of Gor, p. 94
       While not technically a command, it is still an action the slave
       should remember. If something is thrown over a slaves head, they
       need to remain silent and motionless until freed from it.
       Bound by Master's Will
       "She wore the `bonds of the master's will.' Grunt had put her in
       them. She could not rise to her feet. Yet there was not a rope
       or strap on her body. She was `bound by the master's will.' She
       could not move from this position unless, at the word of a free
       person, she was freed from it. To break the position otherwise
       is to be instantly slain."
       Blood Brothers of Gor, p. 248
       Technically not a true position. It implies that the slave will
       stay in any position that they are told to stay in until
       released as if they were truely bound.
       Collaring position (or the position of female submission)
       A slave kneels at the Master's feet, sitting on her heels. The
       back is kept straight or slightly leant backwards. The girl
       extends her arms upward, crosses her wrists, and lowers her head
       between her arms. The verbal command often used is ‘submit’.
       “She came and stood before me, and then dropped to her knees,
       resting back on her heels. She lowered her head and extended he
       arms, wrists crossed, the submission of the Gorean female.”
       Raiders of Gor, p. 92
       “‘Submit’, he said. I could not disobey him. I fell to my knees
       before him, resting on my heels, extending my arms to him,
       wrists crossed, as though for binding, my head lowered, between
       my arms. I spoke in a clear voice. ‘I, Miss Elinor Brinton, of
       New York City, to the Warrior, Rask, of the High City of Treve,
       herewith submit myself as a slave girl. At his hands I accept my
       life and my name, declaring myself his to do with as he
       pleases.’”
       Captive Of Gor, p. 283
       “’Fetch a slave whip’, I said.
       She uttered a cry of misery and regarded me in disbelief. Then
       she leapt to her feet and hurried away. In a moment she had
       returned and knelt before me. She put down her head, as she had
       doubtless been taught, in submission. She then, lifting and
       extending her arms, her head still humbly down between them,
       lifted her hands to me. The backs of the wrists faced me. This
       was rather as in several common submission ceremonies. With the
       backs of the hands in this position it is easier to pull them
       together and tie them. Indeed, in most of these submission
       ceremonies the wrists are presented already crossed to the male,
       so that he may the more conveniently lash them together.”
       Mercenaries of Gor, pp. 366-67
       ”Then, to my astonishment, the daughter of the Ubar Marlenus,
       daughter of the Ubar of Ar, knelt before me, a simple warrior of
       Ko-ro-ba, and lowered her head, lifting and extending her arms,
       wrists crossed. It was the submission of the captive female.
       Without raising her eyes from the ground, the daughter of the
       Ubar said in a clear, distinct voice: ‘I submit myself.’”
       Tarnsman of Gor, p. 93
       “‘I can force you to take me’, she said. ‘How?’ I asked. ‘Like
       this’, she responded, kneeling before me, lowering her head and
       lifting her arms, the wrists crossed. She laughed. ‘Now you must
       take me with you or slay me.’ I cursed her, for she took unfair
       advantage of the Warrior Codes of Gor. ‘What is the submission
       of Talena, the daughter of the Ubar, worth?’ I taunted.
       ‘Nothing’, she said. ‘But you must accept it or slay me.’”
       Tarnsman Of Gor, p. 109
       “Say “I submit”’, I said. ‘I submit’, she said. He bound her
       wrists, tightly, before her body. ‘Look up’, I told her. She
       looked up. He collared her. I was very pleased to see her in the
       collar of Bosk of Port Kar.
       Slave Girl of Gor, p. 401
       Crawl
       A slave drops to her belly and approaches the Master,
       maintaining that position.
       ”I pointed to the stones at my feet. ‘Crawl,’ I said, in Gorean.
       The girl slipped to her belly, and, as a slave girl, crawled to
       my feet. She put her lips to my foot; I felt her hair over it.”
       Tribesmen of Gor, p. 78
       “‘I crawl to my Master on my belly’, she said, ‘and beg for his
       touch.’ I smiled. I, a guest in the tent, now stood to her, of
       course, as her Master.”
       Beasts of Gor, p. 80
       Display
       The auctioneer did not strike her with his whip. He merely took
       her arms and lifted them, so that the position chain, attached
       to each side of the sales collar lay across her her upper arms.
       Then he had her clasp her hands behind the back of her neck, so
       that the chain, on each side of the collar, was in the crook of
       her arms, and she was exposed in such a way that she could be
       properly exhibited.
       Explorers of Gor, p.36
       Gorean bow
       A slave kneels, her thighs parted, then arches her body
       backwards until her head touches the floor; her wrists over and
       above her head. In this position her body exposed fully to the
       Master. Once in this position, a girl may also be tied.
       “Over her iron collar she wore a heavy leather Kur collar, high,
       heavily sewn, with its large ring. He thrust her two wrists
       before her body, into the ring he had cut from the Kur. He then
       tied them inside, and to, the ring. He then, from his belt, took
       a long length of binding fibre and, doubling it, looped it,
       securing it, at its center to the ring, leaving two long ends.
       He then threw her, on her back, over the body, head down, of the
       fallen Kur. He took the two loose ends of the binding fiber and,
       taking them under the body of the fallen Kur, dragged her
       wrists, elbows bent, over and above her head; he then, bending
       her knees, tied one of the loose ends about her left ankle, and
       the other about her right. It was the Gorean love bow.”
       Marauders of Gor, p. 261
       “Under the torchlight Phyllis Robertson was now on her knees,
       the Warrior at her side, holding her behind the small of the
       back. Her head went farther back, as her hands moved on the arms
       of the Warrior, as though once to press him away, and then again
       to draw him closer, and her head then touched the furs, her body
       a cruel, helpless bow in his hands, and then, her head down… “
       Assassin of Gor, p. 185
       Hair
       A slave kneels before a Free and lowers her head so that her
       hair falls forward, and the Free can use it for whatever
       purposes They wish.
       “For example, when a girl, serving at a banquet, hears the
       command ‘hair’, she knows she is to go to the guest and kneel,
       and lower her head, that her hair may be used as a napkin or
       wiping cloth, by means of which the free person, either male or
       female, may remove stains, crumbs or grease from his hands.
       Similarly a girl's hair, if sufficiently long, may be used for
       the washing and cleaning of floors. In this she is usually on
       her hands and knees, and naked and chained. The hair is used in
       conjunction with the soap and water, in the appropriate buckets,
       being dipped in, and wrung out, and rinsed, and so on.”
       Kajira of Gor
       Heel
       A slave takes her place behind the Master's left foot (if the
       Master is right-handed, so she will not interfere with His
       weapon hand). As He moves, she must follow Him (usually a few
       steps behind Him). The slave must stop if He does, but be ready
       to follow Him instantly if He starts to walk again.
       “He turned about and, with his weapons, strode from the camp. I
       followed him, at his heel, where a slave girl belongs.”
       Slave Girl of Gor, p. 109
       “A man’s slave usually heels him, following behind him, or
       behind him on his left.”
       Blood Brothers of Gor, p. 299
       “He soon released my hair and I again straightened up. I was
       following him, generally, a little behind and on his left. It
       seemed appropriate that I, in my disguise, might seem to heel
       him, as though I might be a mere slave.”
       Kajira of Gor
       “The girl normally heels a right-handed Master on the left, that
       she not encumber the movements of the weapon hand.”
       Magicians of Gor, p. 117
       High harness
       In this position, a slave raises her chin very high, her neck
       stretched upwards.
       “‘Lift your head,’ he said. ‘Higher. Higher!’ She looked up at
       him, her head far back, the leash on her throat. ‘You need not
       now keep your head in high-harness position’, he said to the
       girl.”
       Mercenaries of Gor, p. 308-09
       Kneel to be coffled
       A slave kneels with her thighs parted and lifts either her left
       or right hand, so that her wrist can be attached to a ring
       within the coffle chain
       “‘Kneel to be coffled’, said one of the men. The girls knelt,
       closely, one behind the other, there were six wrist rings on the
       chain he carried. He placed the girl who had been whipped by
       Lady Sabina first in the coffle line. ‘Left wrist coffle,’ he
       said. They lifted their left wrists, frightened. Interestingly,
       the man snapping the wrist rings on the girls’ left wrists did
       not put the first girl in the first ring, but the second. When
       the four maids were coffled there was, thus, an empty wrist ring
       both at the head and rear of the line. ‘Stand, slaves’, said the
       man. ‘Lower chain.’ The girls stood. Then, ordered, the lowered
       their wrists. They were then in line, standing, coffled.”
       Slave Girl of Gor, p. 127
       “There is a large variety of coffle arrangements, given mixtures
       and combinations of materials and bonds, and aesthetic, physical
       and psychological considerations. Coffle arrangements are seldom
       random. From the physical point of view, the most common coffles
       are left-wrist coffles, left-ankle coffles and throat coffles.
       Left-wrist coffles and throat coffles are useful trekking
       coffles. The left-ankle coffle and the throat coffle free the
       hands to carry burdens.”
       Slave Girl of Gor
       Kneel to the whip (whipping position)
       A slave kneels in ‘nadu’ or ‘tower’. She then crosses her arms
       in front of her, across her chest or belly; leans forward and
       places her head to the floor. In this position she will receive
       a Master's punishment (either whipping or other).
       “I went to Targo, trembling, and knelt at his feet, my head to
       the boards of the floor I crossed my wrists beneath me and
       touched my head to the floor, exposing the bow of my back. It is
       the submissive posture of a slave girl who is to be punished. It
       is called kneeling to the whip. I shook, visibly, at his feet.”
       Captive of Gor, p. 200
       “‘Kneel to the whip’, said Samos. Piteously she knelt, a slave
       girl. Her wrists were crossed under her, as though bound, her
       head was to the floor, the bow of her back was exposed. She
       shuddered. I had little doubt but that this slave knew well, and
       much feared, the disciplining kiss of the Gorean slave lash.”
       Marauders of Gor, p. 13
       “She crawled to the point, trembling, where I had indicated.
       ‘Kneel to the whip’, I ordered her.
       She knelt there, trembling, her head down to the grass, her
       wrists crossed beneath her, as though bound.
       I struck her thrice.”
       Blood Brothers of Gor, p. 137
       Leading position (also known as Hair)
       A slave stands behind the Master and bends at the waist, or
       crouches, lowering her head to the Master’s hip, so that He can
       lead her easily by her hair or collar. There is also a
       non-verbal command for this position: the Master lowers His left
       hand to His hip, opening and closing it.
       “I held my left hand open, at my waist. She stiffened, and
       looked at me, angrily. I opened and closed my left hand once. I
       saw her training in Gorean customs had been thorough. But she
       never thought that such a gesture would be used to her. She came
       beside me, and a bit behind me, and, crouching, put her head
       down, deeply. I fastened my hand in her hair I entered,
       conducting the girl.”
       Beasts of Gor
       “I then snapped my fingers and held my right hand, open, at my
       hip. Swiftly the girl rose to her feet and, half crouching, put
       her head by my hand. I fastened the fingers of my hand deeply
       and firmly in her red hair. She winced, and kissed at my thigh.
       I then, the goblet of paga in my left hand, her hair in my
       right, dragged her beside me, her slender chains rustling, to
       the nearest alcove.”
       Rogue of Gor, p. 59
       Lesha
       A slave turns her back to the Master, her head held high and
       slightly turned to the left so that a leash can be attached to
       her collar; her wrists in the small of her back, side by side,
       ready for bracelets. The slaves in the following examples are
       standing when they assume this position. The position known
       online as ‘high lesha’ is explained as ‘a variation of leasha in
       which the slave is standing, not kneeling'. But, in the examples
       found in the books, the slave is already standing when she
       assumes lesha. I have not found ‘high lesha’ in the books.
       “‘Lesha’, snapped the second officer to the blond girl. She spun
       from facing him, and lifted her chin, turning her head to the
       left, placing her wrists behind her, as though for snapping them
       into slave bracelets. ’Nadu!’ he snapped. She swiftly turned,
       facing him, and dropped to her knees.”
       Explorers of Gor, p. 76
       ”’Lesha!’ he said. Immediately, responsive to this command, I
       flung my wrists behind me, separated by some two inches, and
       lifted my chin, my head turned to the left. I felt slave
       bracelets flung, snapping shut, on my wrists. I was braceleted.
       In another moment I was leashed.”
       Dancer of Gor, p. 365
       Nadu (or the position of the pleasure slave)
       A slave kneels with her heels tucked under her bottom, thighs
       spread wide, her back straight, her chest out, belly in, her
       head held high and her eyes lowered; her hands rest upon her
       thighs.
       “’Kneel’, I told her. She knelt. ‘Straighten your body slave’, I
       told her. Frightened, Miss Blake-Allen straightened her back,
       and lifted her head. She knelt back on her heels, knees wide,
       hands on her thighs. It was the position of the Pleasure Slave.
       I had taught her the position. It is one of the first things a
       good-looking woman, fallen slave, is taught on Gor.”
       Tribesmen of Gor, p. 53
       “Tossing my head I knelt, the chain dangling from my collar
       before my body, to the grass. I knelt back on my heels, my back
       very straight, my hands on my thighs, my head high, looking
       straight ahead. I thrust my shoulders back, my breasts forward.
       I did not neglect the placement of my knees; I opened them as
       widely as I could, as I knew the men wanted. I knelt before them
       again in that most elegant and helpless position in which men
       may place a woman, that position I was later to learn was that
       of the Gorean Pleasure Slave.”
       Slave Girl of Gor, p. 20
       “‘Nadu!’ he snapped. She swiftly turned, facing him, and dropped
       to her knees. She knelt back on her heels, her back straight,
       her hands on her thighs, her head up, her knees wide. It was the
       position of the pleasure slave.”
       Explorers of Gor, p. 77
       ”He suddenly snapped his fingers and, in the swift double
       gesture of the Gorean Master, pointed to a place on the dirt
       floor before him, almost simultaneously turning his hand,
       spreading the first and index fingers, pointing downwards. I
       fled to him and knelt before him, my knees in the dirt, in the
       position of the pleasure slave, my head down, trembling.”
       Captive of Gor, p. 143
       Nestle
       A slave settles against a Master, nestling in the crook of His
       arm.
       “‘Nestle’, I told her. ‘Yes, Master’, she said. She nestled
       obediently in the crook of my left arm.”
       Explorers of Gor p. 279

       ---------------------------------------------------------
       Obeisance
       Obeisance can be performed in several different ways. In
       Mercenaries of Gor, three different forms are explained.
       1. The first is a variation of the ‘nadu’ position (difference:
       the slave’s head is bowed, emphasizing her submission).
       ”’There are many ways to perform obeisance’. I said. ‘I shall
       instruct you briefly in three’, I said. ‘First kneel before me,
       back on your heels, yes, with your knees wide, wider, your hands
       on your thighs, your back straight, your breasts out, good, your
       belly in, good, and now lower your head in deference, in
       submission’. ‘Like a slave!’ she said. ‘Do it’, I said. She
       looked well. ‘Now that’, I said, ‘may not be exactly a
       performance of obeisance, for authorities do not all agree, but
       for our purposes we shall count it as one. It is, at any rate, a
       beautiful position, and it is, certainly, a common position of
       slave submission’.”
       Mercenaries of Gor, p. 409
       2. This is a continuation of the first form. The slave, kneeling
       in nadu, leans forward and lowers her head to the floor; her
       hands are also on the floor, palms down. The girl lifts her head
       a little and moves forward to the Master, not breaking the
       position; she then licks/kisses the Master’s boots.
       ”’Now’, I said, ‘and this is clearly a form of obeisance, bend
       forward and put your head to the mat, the palms of your hands on
       the mat. Good. Now lift your head little and come forward,
       substantially keeping the position. Forward a little more.’ ‘But
       then my face will be at your feet’, she said, ‘my lips will be
       over them!’ ‘Yes’, I said, ‘Good, now, put your head down and
       lick and kiss my feet’.”
       Mercenaries of Gor, p. 409-410
       3. In this variation, the slave lays on her belly and moves
       forward remaining low on it; upon reaching the Master’s feet,
       she licks and kisses them. Then she takes the Master’s foot and
       places it on her head for a moment, before lowering it again to
       the floor and kissing it again.
       ”’Now’, I said, ‘for a third form of obeisance. You may ‘belly’
       to me.’ ‘I do not understand’, she whispered. ‘There are various
       forms of bellying,’ I said, ‘and bellying may be suitably and
       pleasingly combined with other forms of floor movements,
       approaching the Master on all fours, turning to your sides and
       back, writhing before him, and so on. We will take a very simple
       variation, suitable for an ignorant free female who has not yet
       even begun to discover the depths of her sexuality.’ She looked
       up at me. ‘On your belly’, I said. She backed off a bit, and
       went to her belly. Her hair was before her face, as she now on
       her belly before me, looked up at me. ‘Now inch forward’, I
       said, ‘remaining low on your belly, and when you reach my feet,
       once again, as before, lifting your head a little, tenderly and
       humbly, and beautifully, as though you were a slave, lick and
       kiss them. Good. Good. Now take my foot and place it gently on
       your head. Very good. Now place it again on the mat, and kiss it
       again. Good. You may now belly back a little, humbly. I have not
       yet given you permission to rise of course.’” Mercenaries of
       Gor, p. 410
       Prostrate
       I knelt before the guest, putting the palms of my hands on the
       floor and my head to the tiles.
       Kajira of Gor, p. 305
       Run
       A slave runs with small quick steps, her legs almost straight,
       feet barely leaving the floor. Her head is turned to the left,
       her arms are at her sides with palms facing outward. When she
       reaches her objective she usually assumes the position of nadu.
       She ran rapidly to a place before the stone platform, before the
       curule chair of Cernus, where she fell to her knees in the
       position of pleasure slave, head bowed. I was amused, for she
       had run as a slave girl is sometimes taught to run, with rapid
       short steps, her legs almost straight, her feet scarcely leaving
       the ground, back straight, head turned to the left, arms at her
       sides, palms out at a forty-five degree angle, more of a
       dancer's motion than a true run.”
       Assassin of Gor, p. 45
       Slave Lips
       Similarly, I was not required to respond to certain sorts of
       commands, for example, to make "slave lips," pursing my lips for
       kissing, or to writhe slowly before my viewers.
       Kajira of Gor, p. 224
       When this command is given, the slave turns her head up to the
       Master, her lips pursed in a sensual kissing position. She
       remains motionless, her lips thusly puckered, and may not move
       until she is granted the kiss of a Master.
       She-Quadrupled -- also called She-Sleen
       "Girl", I said to her.
       She, addressed, scrambled to her knees. She kept her head down.
       She whimpered.
       "She does not speak", said Boabissia.
       "She is perhaps under the discipline of the she-quadruped", I
       said.
       The girl whimpered, looking at us, nodding her head
       affirmatively. Then she put down her head, again".
       Mercenaries of Gor, p. 215
       "In what slavery, or slaveries, will Master place me?", she
       asked.
       I looked at her position. "Perhaps in these slavery of the
       she-quadruped", I said.
       "Master may do so, if he wishes", she said, "if it pleases him,
       or amuses him".
       Guardsman of Gor, p. 225
       "In this form of slavery, which is commonly used for
       disciplinary purposes, or for the amusement of the Master, the
       woman is not permitted to arise from all fours; similarly she is
       not permitted human speech, though she may signify needs and
       desires by such means as cringing, and moaning and whimpering.
       Not permitted the use of her hands, save as a means of
       locomotion, she must also eat and drink from pans set on the
       floor, or, sometimes to satisfy her thirst, she must lap the
       water permitted to her from puddles of lick pillages from the
       tiles; too, it is not uncommon to chain her near her Master's
       feet, while he dines, that he may, if he wishes, throw her
       scraps of food. She will also be taught tricks, through which
       paces she may be put for the entertainment of her Master's
       guests, such things as begging, lying down, rolling over, and
       fetching his sandals in her teeth. And, needless to say, when
       her Master wishes to use her sexually, it will be a position
       common to the she-quadruped"
       Guardsman of Gor, p. 225
       "In this discipline the female is forbidden human speech. She is
       also forbidden human posture, in the sense that she is not
       allowed to rise to her feet. Her locomotion, unless commanded to
       roll, or put under similar commands, suitable for a pet, will be
       on all fours. Her food will be thrown to her, or put in pans on
       the ground. In either case, she must feed without the use of her
       hands. She may also, of course, be fed by hand, but, again, will
       not be permitted to touch the food with her hands. She may be
       taught tricks. Sometimes these are taught as functions of
       arbitrary sounds, so that she must learn them as any animal
       might, without the benefit of an earlier understanding of the
       word used. If she is slow to learn, of course, she is punished,
       as would be any other animal. When used, too, it will commonly
       be in the modality of the she-quadrupled. This discipline is
       often used as a punishment but it may figure in the training of
       a new girl. It helps her to understand what she now is, an
       animal totally subject to her Master".
       Mercenaries of Gor, p. 215-216
       Sometimes known as "She-Sleen", the Discipline of the
       She-Quadruped is more then just a mere position to a command, it
       is rather, a complete change of habits. The slave is to fully
       assume and imitate the mannerisms of an animal. In this
       position, the slave cannot stand, speak, use their hands, unless
       told otherwise. It is often used as punishment but also as a
       tool to imprint in the mind of slaves that they are not free.
       This treatment is humbling, there is a clear line between the
       slave , an animal, and the free who are human. She is shown that
       she is little more then a pet whom is completely dependent and
       at the mercy of her owner and his commands
       She-sleen
       "Melina, now a naked slave in sleen collar, was ordered forth on
       her hands and knees. A sleen leash was attached to her collar
       and she was marched, as a she-sleen, crawling, abused, to the
       ****-rack"
       Slave Girl of Gor, p. 238
       He knelt me there. "Put your head down, to the floor," he said.
       "Clasp your hands, firmly, behind the back of your neck." "Yes,
       Master," I moaned. He was then behind me. He put his hands,
       under my arms, on my breasts, sweetly and firmly. Then he moved
       his bands back, caressing my flanks. My head was down. My
       fingers were together, behind the back of my neck. I was in his
       collar. It was steel, I could not remove it. I belonged to him.
       My body hurt, from his whip, that of my master. My head hurt,
       from my hair, where I had been conducted, unceremoniously, to
       this location. "Please, Master," I sobbed. "Not like this! Not
       you, please!" "The slave is pretty," he remarked. "Oh!" I cried.
       "Oh!" "You have a lovely ass," he said. "Ohhh!" I said. "You may
       thank me," he said.
       Kajira of Gor, p. 434
       The slave moves to her knees and elbows, bottom in the air,
       acting as an animal or ready for either being beaten on the
       bottom or being taken from behind.
       Slavers Carress
       Her movements were wooden. The crowd was not pleased. There was
       only a two gold piece bid. Then taking the whip from the whip
       slave the auctioneer stepped to the disconsolate girl; suddenly,
       without warning, he administered to her the Slaver's caress, the
       whip caress, and her response was utterly, uncontrollably, wild,
       helpless. She regarded him in horror. The crowd howled with
       delight
       Assassin of Gor, p. 294
       Then, before I could realize what he intended, he had subjected
       Miss Cardwell to what, among slavers, is known as the Whip
       Caress. Ideally it is done, as Kamchak had, unexpectedly, taking
       the girl unawares. Elizabeth suddenly cried out throwing her
       head to one side. I observed to my amazement the sudden,
       involuntary, uncontrollable response to the touch. The Whip
       Caress is commonly used among Slavers to force a girl to betray
       herself.
       Nomads of Gor, p. 168
       Stake position
       "’Amina and Rimice’, he said, ‘I have been using as rent
       slaves.’ ‘I see’, I said. ‘Stake position’, said Ephialtes to
       the two women. Immediately they both lay down, with a sound of
       chain. It is not unusual to forbid a rent slave, during her use
       times, when chained at a stake, to rise even to her knees.”
       Vagabonds of Gor, p. 386
       Stand
       ‘stand as a slave’ is a command. However, kajirae always stand
       beautifully, even if not explicitly commanded to do so. Online,
       I have seen it is sometimes called ‘display’, but there are also
       other ways in which a slave may be displayed, depending on the
       situation and, of course, on the decision of each Master.
       “‘Stand as a slave’, he said. I stood beautifully, back
       straight, head high, belly sucked in, hip turned. No woman can
       stand more beautifully than a Gorean slave girl. ‘Excellent’,
       said Ladletender, smacking his lips. ‘Master is pleased’, I
       said. ‘Yes’, he said. ‘The slave, too, is then pleased’, I
       said.”
       Slave Girl of Gor, p. 249
       Standard binding positions
       These comprise the several positions that may be adopted by a
       slave when she is to be bound. They usually depend on how a girl
       is positioned prior to the command. The quote below clearly
       describes ‘bara’, one of these binding positions.
       ”’Standard binding position’, he said. I was prone. When a girl
       is prone, the standard binding position is to cross the wrists
       behind the back and to cross the ankles. I took this position
       instantaneously.”
       Slave Girl of Gor, p. 125
       Sula
       A slave lays on the floor upon her back, her legs extended and
       parted, her hands at her sides, palms upturned, and awaits the
       Master's pleasure.
       ”’Sula, kajira!’ said the man. She slid her legs from under her
       and lay on her back, her hands at her sides, palms up, legs
       open.”
       Explorers of Gor, p. 77
       Sula Ki
       "She lay on her back, her knees drawn up, before me. She arched
       her back. Her breast were lifted beautifully. I observed their
       lovely rise and fall, correlated with the respiratory cycle of
       her small lungs. Then she lay back, her shoulders in the dirt,
       and pressing against the earth with her small feet, piteously
       lifted before me, for my examination, and seizure, if I pleased,
       the deep belly of her , the sweet cradle of her slave's heat.
       Explorers of Gor, p. 329
       Same position as Sula, just with a twist of arching the back and
       lifting the hips off the floor. Not a very comfortable position,
       but more accessible for Masters and inspection, as well as a
       pleasing view.
       Supine capture position
       One of several positions that indicate indicate that a girl is
       within the capture rights of a particular Gorean Free. The girl
       must remain motionless.
       ”’On your back’, he said, ‘knees raised, heels on the floor.’ I
       then lay before him, in a standard, supine capture position.”
       Kajira of Gor, p. 442
       Thigh
       The command 'thigh' may be given by a free man to a woman in
       order to see if she is a slave (branded) or a free woman.
       “'Thigh', I said. The dark-haired woman turned immediately to
       her side, exposing her left thigh to me. There was a chain on
       her neck, run to a stake near the wagon. A small copper bowl was
       beside her. 'Thigh', I said, to the other woman, also
       dark-haired, but smaller. With an exciting, sensuous movement
       she exhibited her thigh. 'They look well, branded' I said.”
       Vagabonds of Gor, pp. 383-85
       “'Thigh', said the fellow who had admitted us, looking at Ina.
       He wished, of course, to ascertain if she was a slave.”
       Vagabonds of Gor, p. 399
       Tower
       A slave kneels with her knees modestly together, back straight,
       eyes lowered. The palms of her hands rest upon her thighs or the
       slave may have her hands crosses before her.
       “The position of the Tower Slave, in which Vika knelt, differs
       from that of a free woman only in the position of the wrists
       which are held before her and, when not occupied, crossed as
       though for binding. A free woman's wrists are never so placed.”
       Priest-Kings of Gor, p. 46
       “The position of the tower slave, in most cities, is very
       similar to that of the pleasure slave. The major difference is
       that the tower slave, whose duties are commonly, primarily,
       domestic, kneels with her knees in a closed position, whereas
       the pleasure slave, in a symbolic recognition of the fuller
       nature of her bondage, and its most significant aspects, kneels
       with them in open position. The tower slave, of course, like any
       other slave, is fully at the disposal of the master, in any and
       every way. The distinction between the tower slave and the
       pleasure slave, though honored in some markets, some
       specializing in girls sold primarily for housekeeping purposes
       and others in girls sold primarily for the pleasures of men, is
       not really a hard and fast distinction; it is not absolute;
       indeed, it can even be transitory. A girl who is ordered to open
       her knees, or who finds them kicked apart, for example, realizes
       that she has now become a pleasure slave. Similarly a girl in
       one context may function as one kind of slave and in another
       context, as another sort. Serving supper to a young man and his
       mother, for example, the girl may appear merely efficient and
       deferential. She kneels nearby, her knees closed. After the
       mother departs, however, she may kneel differently before the
       young man, with her knees open, his.”
       Blood Brothers of Gor, p. 107
       ”I realized, suddenly, that my knees were pressed closely
       together. That had occurred during, and I had kept them that way
       afterwards, the beating on the wagon of the woman, and her
       screaming. It had been a defensive gesture, bringing my knees
       together, tightly, because I was afraid. Perhaps, too, I
       supposed, just as a male might find the spreading of a female’s
       knees, appropriate, deferential or placatory, so, too, such a
       woman might prefer their closure, finding it respectful, or
       placatory. Perhaps she might be mollified to some extent by such
       an apparent modesty. I did not know. Still, looking down at me,
       I did not think she would be likely to be fooled by it. I did
       not think she would be stupid. She would probably know what I
       was, really. It was probably not hard to tell. Perhaps we were
       just different sorts of women. I did not know. I did realize
       that such women, in all their frustration and anger, would
       probably want me to be like them. That thought horrified me. I
       found it terrifying. It would be like going back to the
       sterilities, the barren-ness, the pathologies, of Earth. Tears
       formed in my eyes, in the hood. What was I to do? I recalled
       that Ulrick had told me that certain kinds of slaves, house
       slaves, ‘tower slaves’, and such, whatever they were, might
       kneel with their knees together, but I had also been informed
       that I, and the other girls, were not such slaves.”
       Dancer of Gor, p. 83
       Usage -- common usage
       He knelt me there. "Put your head down, to the floor," he said.
       "Clasp your hands firmly, behind the back of your neck."
       "Yes, Master," I moaned. He was then behind me. He put his
       hands, under my arms, on my breasts, sweetly and firmly. Then he
       moved his hands back, caressing my flanks. My head was down. My
       fingers were together, behind the back of my neck. I was in his
       collar. It was steel, I could not remove it. I belonged to him.
       My body hurt, from his whip, that of my Master. My head hurt,
       from my hair, where I had been conducted, unceremoniously, to
       this location. "Please, Master," I sobbed. "Not like this! Not
       you, please!"
       "The slave is pretty," he remarked.
       "Oh!" I cried. "Oh!"
       "You have a lovely ass," he said.
       "Ohhh!" I said.
       "You may thank me," he said.
