To Gorean eyes, the piercing of the ears, this visible set of wounds, inflicted to facilitate the mounting of sensual and barbaric ornamentations, is customarily regarded as being tantamount, for most practical purposes, to a sentence of irrevocable bondage.  Normally ear-piercing is done only to the lowest and most sensuous of slaves.  It is regarded, by most Goreans, as being far more humiliating and degrading to a woman than the piercing of a girl's septum and the consequent fastening on her of a nose ring ... On behalf of the nose ring, too, it should be mentioned that among the Wagon Peoples, even free women wear such rings.  This however, is unusual on Gor.  The nose ring, most often, is worn by a slave ... The nose ring too, of course, makes clear to the girl that she is a domestic animal.  Many domestic animals on Gor wear them.
