The Whip Dance
(as performed in Rogue of Gor)
A new dancer came forth upon the floor and began, a tall brute
near her with the leather, to perform a whip dance.
In the whip dance, though there are various versions of it,
depending on the locality, the girl is almost never struck with the whip,
unless, of course, she does not perform well. When the whip is cracked, however,
the girl will commonly react as though she has been struck. this, conjoined with
the music, and her beauty, and the obvious symbolism of her beauty beneath total
male descipline, can be extremely, powerfully erotic. In an elegant, civilized
context, one of beauty and music, it makes clear and bespeaks the raw and
essential primitives of the ancient, genetic, biological sexual realtionship of
men and women.
The whip dance continued before us.
The whip dance was now approaching its climax.
I turned my attention to the dancer on the floor. She lay now on
her back, one knee lifted, her arms at her sides, palms down, before the brute
with his whip, who towered over her. Her head, too, was turned to the side. Then
she turned her head to face the brute who tyrannized her. She looked deeply into
his eyes. then, delicately, in a graceful gesture, she turned her hands, putting
their backs to the floor, exposing her palms, and the soft flesh of her palms,
to him, indicating her surrender, her submission, her vulnerability and her
readiness
There was applause, the striking of the left shoulder, from the
tables.
The brute then crouched beside her and encircled her neck with
the coils of his whip. He drew her to her knees then before him. She looked up
at him, her neck in the whip coils..... his.
There was more applause. Then the brute looked to Policrates,
who indicated a table. He then pulled the girl to her feet and, running her over
the tiles, and then releasing the coils from her neck, threw her stumbling into
the arms of waiting pirates who, with a cry of pleasure, sized her and began to
work their lusty wills upon her. There was more applause, and laughter.
