Quotes on First Girls “I, too, wish you well, Mistress,” I said. I addressed her as a mistress, for she was the first girl. ~pg 245 Slave Girl of GOR~ “A switch was put in the hands of Eta. She stood over me. I put down my head. She did not strike me. I looked up at her. I realized then that she was first girl in the camp, and that I must obey her, that she had been empowered to set me tasks and duties. Suddenly I feared her. Now I realized I must, without question, take slave instructions from her and discharge swiftly and well whatever menial duties she might place upon me. I had little doubt she would use the switch, and richly, upon me, did I not work well. She could command me. She held the switch. I would obey. She was first girl ~ pg 66 Slave Girl of GOR~ “When more than one slave girl stands in a relationship of slave girls, as when they serve in the same shop or house, or adorn the same rich man’s pleasure gardens, it is common for the Master, or Masters, to appoint a “first girl.” Her authority is then to the other girls as is that of the Master. This tends to reduce squabbling. The first girl is usually, though not always, the favorite of the Master. There is usually much competition to be first girl. First girls can be cruel and petty but commonly, they attempt to govern with intelligence and justice. They know that another girl, at the Master’s whim, may become first girl, and that they themselves may then be under the almost absolute power ~pg 77 Explores of GOR~ “in a group of female slaves, for example, in a pleasure gardens, a fortress or a tavern, there will usually be a girl appointed First Girl. Indeed, if there is a large number of slaves, there are sometimes hierarchies of “first girls,” lower-lever first girls reporting to higher-level first girls, and so on. The lower-level slaves will commonly address their first girl as “Mistress.” Thus, in some situations, the same girl may be first girl to certain girls and be subordinated herself to another, on a higher level, whom she will address as “Mistress.” Sometimes in hierarchy is formed in which girls are ranked in such a manner that each must address the girls above her as “Mistress.” More commonly, it is only the lowest slave, usually the newest slave, who must do this with all the others, whereas the others will address only their first girl as “Mistress,” and , of course, any Free Woman whom they might , to their risk, or peril, encounter. ~pg 123 Magicians of GOR~ “the suspension of brush-and-comb privileges is also used, upon occasion, by the first girls as a disciplinary measure, within the coffle. Other disciplinary measures practiced among girls themselves involve such things as bonds, the control of rations and switching. Girls, thus, under the control of first girls, reporting to the Masters, commonly keep a good order among themselves. All, of course, including the first girls, are in all things subject, ultimately, to the total authority of the Master. ~pg 231 Savages of GOR~ “You are first girl, “ I told Constance. “Yes Master” she said. “Constance is first girl,” I told her who had been the Lady Tina of Lydius. “Yes Master”, said she who had been the Lady Tina of Lydius. “Address her as Mistress,” I told the former free girl, “Mistress,” said she who had been the former Lady Tina of Lydius, frightened, to Constance. “Slave,” responded Constance to her, confirming the former free woman as second girl.” ~pg 135 Beast of GOR~
