But now she, too, could be bought and sold. - (Players of Gor, Chapter 21, Sentence #30)

On the other hand when the "free woman" finds herself just such an animal, a slave, she finds herself subject to the same objective assessments with which men, keepers and trainers, buyers and sellers, and such, regard all sorts of animals. Suddenly her beauty is no longer concealed and sacrosanct but subject to explicit display and comparison, and vending. I recalled that I had once told the Lady Yanina that there were thousands of slaves more beautiful than she, but she had dismissed this observation on the grounds that it was a pointless irrelevance, as the slaves could be bought and sold. But now she, too, could be bought and sold. No longer could she compare herself only with free women, but must now compare herself with slaves, as well; indeed, she should no longer think to compare herself with free women, at all, as she was now a slave; she should not even dare to harbor such a presumptuous comparison; free women were now dimensions beyond her; they were to her as though in another world; publicly expressing such a comparison could bring her a lashing, and possibly disfigurement; no longer was she a free woman; those distinctions, privileges, dignities, glories and honors had been taken from her; she had now been removed from one category of consideration and plunged into another which was quite different, that of the female slave. Branded, locked in a collar, she was now only one beauty amongst incredible numbers of others. Her competition in beauty, so to speak, had now become suddenly, unanticipatedly abundant, perhaps overwhelming. - (Players of Gor)
