Question: Is there any role for male slaves in Code d' Odalisque?

Answer: Yes, but a male slave can only ever be a "memlook" or low slave in Code d' Odalisque, and cannot be an odalisque. An odalisque, by definition, is a special female slave. An odalisque is higher than a memlook. An odalisque has a special role as a slave and has special rights and privileges. A memlook is a common slave and is not protected or guided by the rules of Code d' Odalisque. So a memlook can be used as a work slave. An odalisque, on the other hand, is by definition a sexual slave. Her duties are erotic. She is preserved from common toil and kept as a luxury slave for sexual services.

A memlook can be male or female. But some female slaves are elevated to the status of odalisque. She is then given special treatment and kept for special purposes.

Memlooks can be used for sex too, or they can be used as work slaves. They might also be beaten, whipped, disciplined, tortured - there are no limits to what a Keeper may do to a memlook, while the Code sets strict limits on how an odalisque can be treated. She is protected by the provisions of the Code.

Memlooks are regarded with some disdain by odalisques. In Code play male slaves are only ever memlooks, common slaves - they never rise to the higher status of odalisque. A memlook looks up to an odalisque and may be ordered to serve her. A Slavekeeper may keep both memlooks and odalisques but should be careful to treat them differently. An odalisque should not be treated as a memlook and memlooks should be treated as the common low slaves they are.

Short answer - male slaves can be memlooks but not odalisques.
