ORIGINAL: Lordandmaster You missed the bitter debates on the Gorean board that raged last year. They were about just this issue. So I think you're going just a bit too far by calling people "sexist hypocrites." I could use "clueless idiot", if you prefer. Despite the cavil, the general irony still stands: we have one thread on this forum at present about female supremacy, and an entire forum about male supremacy. Why is male supremacy so incredibly ok that it deserves an entire forum, but female supremacy so incredibly NOT ok that it needs to be rudely and abrasively shouted down if someone even mentions the words? Regardless, though, anyone who is offended by Gor--or by female supremacist fantasies--needs to take a step back and get a nice, firm, two-fisted grip on reality. 'Cause, see, none of us in any danger whatsoever of ending up on a magical fucking BDSM planet where all de mens are Twue Mastuhs and all de wimmens are Twu Swaves any freaking time soon. Neither is anyone with a penis likely to wake up tomorrow morning and find himself deprived by law of the many special privileges to which he has become accustomed, after being raised all his life in a patriarchal society. So maybe everyone could just freaking relax. D'ya think? As ever in the BDSM context--if someone else's fantasy doesn't float your boat? Don't participate! You don't see me on the Gor forum shitting in their stroganoff because John Norman's sci-fi wank fantasies don't do it for me. I'm perfectly fine with the fact that those people are doing their thing, enjoying their personal lives and the relationships that make them happy. So long as they don't get into my face with their segregationist garbage or start trying to order me around, I'm content to leave them alone. Maybe Gor is not for me, but it's no different in substance from a lot of other BDSM practices that I don't personally find erotic. It's called a "squick", quite frankly, and it's my problem, not theirs. --M
