Gorean Master

A Gorean Master is, within the Gorean lifestyle, the man who fulfills the role of natural ruler, based on the hierarchical structure from John Norman's Gor books. He embodies strength, discipline, responsibility, and honor, and has complete control over his kajira (female slave). His dominance is seen as an expression of natural order, in which obedience and protection are balanced with authority and care.
