Whereas security and convenience are obviously involved in these matters, I suspect that masters enjoy chaining their slaves. - (Conspirators of Gor, Chapter 26, Sentence #177)

I do not think that any of us, saving Mina, were interested in trying to escape, for by now we were well aware we were slaves. On the other hand, we were still shackled. This is not that unusual, even within fortresses, and walled cities. Whereas security and convenience are obviously involved in these matters, I suspect that masters enjoy chaining their slaves. Is there not an uncompromising, ruthless claimancy in such an act, signifying, with heat and pleasure, his absolute possession of the slave? Certainly it well reminds slaves of their bondage. Interestingly, whereas it is seems clear that masters, or many masters, enjoy chaining their slaves, what may be less clear, or more surprising, is that many slaves, indeed most, welcome their chaining; they are grateful for it; what an honor it does them; what a compliment it pays them; they have been found worthy of being chained; they love belonging to their master, and, accordingly, rejoice at, and revel in, their chaining, which is proclamatory of his ownership of them. There is the joy of the mastery, but, too, there is the complementary joy of the submission. - (Conspirators of Gor)
