 Q #  Question

Good morning. I am trying to find a quote to back this from Luther's scrolls: "Gorean mythology even provides a story justifying the creation of slavery. Long ago, there once was a war between the men and women of Gor. In the end, the women were defeated. But, the Priest-Kings did not want all of the women killed so they made them beautiful. This was to entice the men to want to keep them instead of slaying them. But as a price for their beauty, the Priest-Kings also decreed that women would forever be slaves to men." I am confident that I've read it, but I cannot recall where it came from and would be grateful for your help! Have a wonderful day!

Answer
Greetings,

Here is your quote.

In Gorean mythology it is said that there was once a war between men and women and that the women lost, and that the Priest-Kings, not wishing the women to be killed, made them beautiful, but as the price of this gift decreed that they, and their daughters, to the end of time, would be the slaves of men.

I wish you well,
Fogaban
