| 1 | "Please name the book and page where the quote can be found regarding it is illegal to collar a woman of one's own homestone."
Answer
I do not find a reference where it is specifically illegal to collar a woman of one's own Home Stone. However I did find these quotes which lend thought to it certainly being . . . inappropriate.
I hope this helps,
Fogaban
Gor is a perilous world, and particularly so, perhaps, for beautiful women. It is seldom that they, if not protected by a city and a Home Stone, escape the slave collar, the brand, the chains of a master.

She might have been safe on Earth; she had chosen to be unsafe, as any beautiful woman without a Home Stone must be, on Gor.

"I own you," she said to the man. "Free me!" I recalled that he had been purchased from the pens of Lydius for her sport. Apparently she had stood the purchase price. Her arrogance, and airs, suggested that she might well have done so.
"You seem rich and educated," I said.
"I am both," she said. "I am of the high merchants."
"I, too, was of the merchants," said Constance.
"Be silent, Slave Girl," snapped the free woman.
"Yes, Mistress," stammered Constance. She placed a branch upon the fire. She withdrew. She was new to her collar.
The free woman glared at the man who had captured her. "Free me, now!" she said.
He looked at her, fingering the knife he had taken from her.
The free woman squirmed in her bonds, frightened. She looked at me. "You are free," she said, "protect me!"
"What is your Home Stone?" I asked.
"That of Lydius," she said.
"I do not share it," I said.
The man crouched near her. His hand was behind her neck, holding her. The point of the dagger was in her belly.
"I free you! I free you!" she said.

I saw that she, too, as had the Lady Tina of Lydius, knew too little of men to fear them. I supposed she had known only the men of Earth and, on Gor, those who were her subordinates in the discipline of the Kurii cause. I saw the sense of the Kurii enlisting such women. They owed no Gorean allegiances. They possessed no Home Stones. They were aliens on this world. Did they not know that they, not having a Home Stone, were subject to any man's collar?

Her wagers had, at any rate, proved uniformly disastrous. She had become a ruined woman. She had had to flee from Venna under the cover of darkness, that she not be delivered to the mercies of her creditors. Such creditors often come for a woman with a collar and chain. She resided now in Vonda, in a tiny, dingy holding, where she, as a citizeness of that city, would have, at least against foreign creditors, the protection of its Home Stone.

"I believe this is the proper sum," I said. I placed two silver tarsks on the counter.
"Indeed it is," said Strobius. He swept the coins from the counter into his hand, and put them in his apron.
"There is your money, Fellow," said the free woman to Strobius, haughtily, as haughtily as she could manage, still the helpless prisoner of his assistant's grip.
"Yes, Lady," said he, bowing deferentially to her.
"Perhaps, now," she said, squirming in the assistant's grip, "you will have this ruffian unhand me."
He regarded her.
She shuddered. Her Home Stone was not that of Lara, times were troubled, and Strobius was master in his own inn. Too, she had, for a time, owed him money. Would he like to see her stripped, and collared?

Women taken in a given city, incidentally, are usually sold out of the city, to wear their collars elsewhere. In this fashion the transition from their former to their subsequent condition is made particularly clear to them. They must begin anew, as a new form of being, that of a lovely animal, the female slave. Also, given the xenophobia common on Gor, often obtaining among cities, the distrust of the stranger, the contempt for the outsider, and such, there is a special ease in a master's relating to a foreign slave, one with whom he has never shared a Home Stone.
