TO SUPPORT MANY OF THE POSITIONS LISTE
D
#Ko'lar/Collar (Position of Submission)
"Assume the posture of female submission," I told her. She did so, kneeling back on her heels, her arms extended, wrists crossed, her head between them, down. She was weeping. Tribesmen of Gor pg 359

"She is yours," he said. He took his strap off her throat, and unbound her hands. "Submit," I told her. She knelt before me, back on her heels, arms extended, head down, between her arms, wrists crossed, as though for binding. Explorers of Gor pg. 74

#Tower
Tower Kneel(Nadu) variation of Nadu: The position of the Tower Slave, in which Vika knelt, differs from that of a free woman only in the position of the wrists which are held before her and, when not occupied, crossed as though for binding...The position of the Pleasure Slave, incidentally, differs from the position of both the free woman and the Tower Slave. The hands of a Pleasure Slave normally rest on her thighs but, in some cities, for example, Thentis, I believe, they are crossed behind her. More significantly, for the free woman's hands may also rest on her thighs, there is a difference in the placement of the knees. In all these kneeling positions, incidentally, even that of the Pleasure Slave, the Gorean woman carries herself well; her back is straight and her chin is high. She tends to be vital and beautiful to look upon." Priest Kings of Gor pg. 46-47

*Nadu
"Come now, my pretty slaves,' said Ginger, 'kneel straight. Back straight, heads up. Back on your heels there! Spread those pretty knees. Yes, that is the way men like it. Put your hands, palms down, on your thighs. Good. good. Excellent!' The girls now knelt in the coffle as pleasure slaves." Savages of Gor pg 155

'Nadu!' he snapped. She swiftly turned, facing him, and dropped to her knees. She knelt back on her heels, her back straight, her hands on her thighs, her head up, her knees wide. It was the position of the pleasure slave. Explorers of Gor pg 77

"It is customary in the kneeling position to remain a few feet back from the male. The kneeling position, itself, expresses the servitude of the slave, and her submission. The distance serves three major purposes. It symbolizes, in the distance, as well as in the differential height, the social inferiority of the slave to the master. It puts the slave in a position, where all of her, for the Master's delight, can be seen. A kneeling woman is incredibly beautiful. It also puts enough space between the slave and the free male so that the releasing of his rapacity is then likely to require a decision, and is less likely to be simply, reflexively, triggered. This is regarded as being particularly important when the slave is in the presence of a male who is not her Master. The kneeling position, thus, interestingly, can occasionally provide a measure of security, if not a tenuous one, for the slave, tending to reduce, to some extent, the frequency in which, in a culture with such interpersonal proximities, she might be subjected to unauthorized rape. This same tiny measure of protection, of course, puts her in much greater danger from her real Master, for he, observing her, seeing her kneeling beautifully before him, can also delay in his considerations as to her suitable exploitations." Dancer of Gor pg. 156

A girl, incidentally, in the position of the Gorean pleasure slave, but who is not being kept in the position as a discipline, in which case she remains rigid, is allowed much subtle latitude, which she exploits, without breaking the position. Sometimes, as she becomes animated, she rises a bit from her heels, sometimes her hands move on her thighs, her shoulders and belly move, her head moves, her eyes are live and vital, she speaks and laughs, and, radiantly, every inch, every bit, of her alive, converses lyrically and delightedly. Any girl knows that an interesting body is a moving body. Even within the apparent restraint of the position of the pleasure slave a girl’s body can be a subtle, provocative melody of motion. The interplay between the restraint of the position and her animation gives the position incredible power and beauty. Slave Girl

"Position!" I snapped. Swiftly she knelt again, as she had been commanded earlier. "You obey with the alacrity of a slave girl," I observed. "If I do not," she said, "I could be punished as one, could I not?" "Yes," I said, "and would be." I walked about her, examining her, She kept her back very straight, and her head up. I was then again before her. I noted that the palm of her hands, so soft, so vulnerable, had turned on her thighs, so that they faced up. Among slave girls this is a common ways of signaling need, helplessness, a desire to please. Vagabonds of Gor pg. 209

*Capture
"On your back," he said, "knees raised, heels on the floor." I then lay before him, in a standard, supine capture position. Kajira of Gor, page 422
*Blanket
"I then threw the second blanket, the top blanket over her, covering her completely. When a blanket, or cloak, or covering of any sort, is thrown over a slave like this she may not speak or rise. She must remain as she is, silent, until the master, or some free man, lifts the covering away." Explorers of Gor...pg 94

Between where the men sat and the coffle, a bit to the right, was the spread-out kailiauk robe under which Grunt had put Margaret, naked, her legs drawn up. She had been under the robe for hours. It would be hot under the robe, in the sun, and there would be insects in the grass. I grinned. I think she was learning her slavery. Savages of Gor...pg 223

*Belly
"Stop," he said. "To your belly." Then I was on my belly, on the tiles, my hands at the sides of my head, prone, before his curule chair. Kajira of Gor pg 427

"Approach me on your belly," I said. She squirmed to the table, her hands still behind her. Renegades of Gor pg. 75

"To your belly," he said. She went to her belly, her hands at the sides of her head. Kajira of Gor pg. 399
Belly Crawl: I crawl to my Master on my belly," she said," and beg for his touch. I smiled. I, a guest in the tent, now stood to her, of course, as her Master. such girls come with the price of the lodging. Beast of Gor pg 80

"Approach me on your belly," I said. She squirmed to the table, her hands still behind her. Renegades of Gor pg. 75

*Submission
"Then, to my astonishment, the daughter of the Ubar Marlenus, daughter of the Ubar of Ar, knelt before me, a simple warrior of Ko-ro-ba, and lowered her head, lifting and extending her arms, wrists crossed. It was... the submission of the captive female. Without raising her eyes from the ground, the daughter of the Ubar said in a clear, distinct voice: `I submit myself.'
...I was speechless for a moment, but then, remembering that harsh Gorean custom required me either to accept the submission or slay the captive, I took her wrists in my hands and said, `I accept your submission.'" Tarnsman of Gor pg 93-94

"She winced, her back bent painfully. "Do you wish me to submit to you now?" She begged. "Do so," said he. She fell to her knees before him, and lifted her head to regard him. "I will be your slave," she said. Then she knelt back on her heels, lowered her head and lifted and extended her arms, wrists crossed, as though for binding. She was very beautiful. "I am your slave," she said, "--Master." Hunters of Gor pg. 16

"Assume the posture of female submission," I told her. She did so, kneeling back on her heels, her arms extended, wrists crossed, her head between them, down. She was weeping." Tribesmen of Gor pg 359

"She is yours," he said. He took his strap off her throat, and unbound her hands. "Submit," I told her. She knelt before me, back on her heels, arms extended, head down, between her arms, wrists crossed, as though for binding. "I submit to you, Master," she said. I tied her hands together; she then lowered her bound wrists; I pulled up her head. I held "Can you read?" I asked her. "No, Master," she said. "It says ," I said, "'I am the girl of Tarl of Teletus.'" I then collared her." Explorers of Gor pg. 74

*Karta
Prostrate (karta: -this word not found in books)
"I straightened my body. I then hurried to the vicinity of the guest, who was sitting at the right hand of Eito, the host. I knelt before the guest, putting the palms of my hands on the floor and my head to the tiles. I then lifted my head, keeping the palms of my hands on the floor." Kajira of gor: page 305
