- (10) Gor the Counter-Earth, is the alternate-world setting for John Norman's "Chronicles of Gor", a series of 26 novels that combine philosophy, erotica, and science fiction.
The customs, terminology, and imagery depicted in these books have inspired a related BDSM-influenced subculture. On- and off-line followers of this lifestyle are called Goreans.
John Norman
John Norman, pen name of John Frederick Lange, Jr. (born June 3, 1931), is the author of the Gor series, which sold several million copies in the 1970s and early 1980s, and still has many fervent fans today. He holds a Ph.D. from Princeton University and is a philosophy professor at Queens College of the City University of New York in New York City.
As well as the Gor books, Norman published a non-fictional sex manual "Imaginative Sex" in 1974, which presents a series of elaborate fantasy scenarios to be acted out (rather than advocating a real-world 24/7 lifestyle), and recommends that symbolic substitutes (such as the sound of claps) should be used instead of actual physical chastisements (such as whippings). Most of the scenarios are maledom / femsub, but a few portray men as the slaves of women and anticipate the eroticized first-person male slave narratives of some of the Gorean novels.
Norman developed similar male dominant, female submissive philosophies in his other fantasy/science fiction novels, but these failed to attract many fans. They include Time Slave (1975) and Ghost Dance (1979) which are set in a pseudo-historical Earth, and a science fiction trilogy, the Telnarian Histories (The Chieftain, The Captain, and The King) that he wrote in the early 1990s.
The books
The first book, "Tarnsman of Gor", was published in 1967 and like most of the subsequent titles, was narrated by British college teacher Tarl Cabot, a master swordsman and possibly Norman's alter-ego, as he engages in adventures involving humans and alien species on Gor. Unlike later books in the series, Cabot rejects Gor's slave-owning society. He sets his slave girl free and then sets off for a swashbuckling adventure. In later books, Cabot slowly embraces slave-owning and eventually owns several slaves. Books 7, 11, 19, 22, and 26 of the series are narrated by abducted Earth women who are made slaves and who describe how they come to enjoy their slavery. Books 14, 15, and 16 are narrated by male abductee (and initially slave) Jason Marshall, who escapes from slavery and thus affirms Norman's male-dominant philosophy.
Although bondage, sadism, and slavery have always been present in the Gor books, passages of philosophical and psychological justification for male dominance became longer and longer as the series continued, increasingly detracting from the books' plots. Possible reasons for this include Norman's use of his then-popular series to battle the emerging feminist movement or demand for his books was so great that they were printed without editing by the later publishers of the series. In any case, the significant readership among people uncomfortable with either BDSM or his distracting justifications was lost. His philosophical diatribes are so wordy, so pedantic, and so formulaic that they have inspired numerous parodies (for example, Houseplant of Gor Archive).
Themes
Norman repeatedly presents pseudo-Darwinian analyses of gender differences to contend that women are the submissive natural helpers, and figurative slaves, of men. His work often takes this observation literally: heroes enslave heroines who, upon being enslaved, revel in the discovery of their natural place.
At right, versions of the female ("Kajira") and male ("Kajirus") forms of the Kef symbol, which is the main Gorean slave marking.
Goreans on Earth
The word Gorean is also applied to adherents of the philosophies espoused in Norman's writings, especially someone who lives a lifestyle based on this philosophy. While the most conspicuous Gorean departure from mainstream modern norms is that Goreans allow and indeed promote sexual master/slave relationships, many who take the Gorean worldview seriously would insist that being Gorean is not necessarily about either sex or slavery, but about the general Gorean philosophy: that is, living in accordance with a Nietzsche-esque natural order, sponsoring a hierarchy of talent, especially strength.
For years there has been an active fan base on the Internet, particularly on IRC channels which sprang up during the mid-1990s, offering Gorean roleplaying in the style of online BDSM. Almost all writers and websites advocating the Gorean philosophy have grown out of online roleplay environments.
Criticisms- Goreanism is a naive application of Darwinism, confusing sexual and social dominance.
- Everything useful in Gorean D/s is present in mainstream D/s; everything unique to Gorean D/s is not useful in real-life D/s.
- The concept of failure expounded with Gorean D/s provides "slaves" with a veto over the relationship.

- Gorean
- (2) A subgenre based upon the rituals and practices created within the world of Gor in the erotic novels by John Norman. Gorean culture is based on stereotypical gender-based roles which are considered by many to conflict with BDSM where there is freedom for either gender to act in any role (Male/Female as either Dom/sub or Top/bottom)
- (4) The term comes from a series of over 20 science fiction novels about a planet called Gor written by John Norman (real name John Frederick Lange). The slave culture described obviously struck a chord with many D/s devotees, because Gorean websites, newsgroups, and chat rooms have sprung up all over the internet where people engage in a fantasy life based on the world described in these novels.
