::applauds wildly::

The hubster, who is a feminist, thought the first one was an adequate ERB pastiche if you skipped the slave bits.

I assume you know Houseplants of Gor? http://www.rdrop.com/~/wyvern/data/houseplants.html

Apparently, BTW, Norman had hissy fits, in a manly way, when confronted with the people trying to live a Gorean lifestyle. (As who would not, really.)

Hmm. That's an interesting intro. I believe in the Free Market. I believe in Capitalism. As a Conservative, I also will admit that I will sometimes feel that Liberals are shortsighted when it comes to international politics ( ... )

Right, so I just read this whole thing and have to salute you for going through it and doing some really damn good analysis. This is something to keep an eye on.

I always got the feeling that Tharna's rule-by-women was supposed to represent what Norman thought feminism would do to us. It started, in Tharna, with women being made equals with men and ended, as women demanded and got more and more power, with men as slaves. You know, "first we gave them the vote, then we let them work, now they're asking us not to treat rape victims like they committed a crime by being attacked and then telling the police about it! When will it all end??? With mandatory castration and male slavery??? SLIPPERY SLOPE PPL, SLIPPERY SLOPE!11! Like buttsex and bestiality! Onoes!"
