But her sisters in bondage, it seems, knew more of these things than she. - (Tribesmen of Gor, Chapter 26, Sentence #494)

Accordingly, then, an unusually large number of girls had gathered to escort Vella gleefully, as though in festival, to the slave quarters. Some of these were, I suppose, alerted by the chant of the caller, but a great many, it seems, had been lingering in the vicinity, anticipating this journey. Vella herself, I gathered, had not anticipated that she would be making it. But her sisters in bondage, it seems, knew more of these things than she. Perhaps Vella had thought she would be dealing with a pliant, manipulable man of Earth; but then not even all men of Earth are such; did she not know that; they, the girls, on the other hand, given their different cultural background, did not expect vacillation and weakness from a man, but what they, Gorean girls, had come to expect from a man, conviction, assurance, decision, resolve and strength. The strap of the caller, lashing about, is painful through slave silk, but many of the girls, it seemed, had risked even this, that they might dart in and abuse the crawling slave. I fear that many felt the strap that day, and I understand that he was forced more than once to lay about him vigorously, but still, shrieking, crying out and clustering about, as I understand it, they would rush in, to strike their small blows, or, sometimes at a distance of no more than a yard or so, fling small objects stingingly against the helpless, crawling slave. - (Tribesmen of Gor)
