| 425 | Would it be possible to know of any quote that actually states the height of a woman of Gor? I know there are references to women being slight next to the men, or that they are smaller, yet can not find any actual mention of an height. Many thanks for the aid.
Answer
The way you phrased your question it seems you are only interested in the height of native Gorean women. However, there are only so many examples where the height of a woman is mentioned. Also, unless specifically mentioned, there is no reason to believe a woman born on Earth is any taller or shorter than a woman born on Gor.
In any event, read the context surrounding these quotes.
When she stood up, now barefoot, her head came only a little higher than my chin. She might have been a bit taller than the average Gorean girl, but not much.
Tarnsman of Gor    Book 1    Page 92
She was tall and strong, but yet, in her height, graceful and incredibly lithe. She was perhaps two inches taller than the average Gorean woman, and yet, due to the perfections of her proportions, she seemed as exquisitely sensual, as healthy and vital, as vigorous and stunning as a girl bred deliberately in the slave pens for such qualities.
Hunters of Gor    Book 8    Page 128
"128," he said, reading irritably, "is brown haired and brown eyed. She is 51 horts in height. Her weight is 29 stones. Her block measurements, certified, are 22 horts, 16 horts, 22 horts.
Slave Girl of Gor    Book 11    Page 284
I was, in Earth measurements, some five feet four inches in height and weighed about one hundred and sixteen pounds. My figure though delicate, was in Earth measurements approximately 28-20-28.
Slave Girl of Gor    Book 11    Page 285
She could not hit me hard, for she was too weak. I did not think she weighed more than one hundred and twenty Earth pounds. She was about five feet five inches in height.
Beasts of Gor    Book 12    Page 144
I then heard my height and weight, given in Gorean measurements, thirty and a quarter Gorean stone and fifty-one horts, or approximately, in Earth measurements, one hundred and twenty-one pounds and five foot three and three quarters inches, and a large number of my other measurements being similarly recounted. These would be my "block measurements," those which were mine as of now, on the date of my sale.
