I agree with most of the posters here. In a private relationship, there is really no difference. Sir, Master, Captain, Daddy, Mommy, Seargeant...its merely a superficial protocol and says nothing in regards to the dynamic that defines the relationship. The only exception is when you venture into the public scene, particulary people who identify as Leather. In that conxtent, these titles can have some degree of reverance and social status. For example, it could be viewed as very socially unacceptable for a new face to self appoint himself as Master Robert or Master Jim to people outside of his own relationship. The title is awarded and given by peers and not self claimed. I wont talk to anyone who self-titles themselves. (other than in a personal relationship but in that instance im gonna assume they wouldnt be with the person if they hadnt already earned their respect). All titles are earned: new dom shows up in town...announces you all must call me Master xxx. Yea right....whatever dude.: new dom in town, hi myname is xxx. wonderful, welcome to the community, after years of proving himself, he will probably work his way up from xxx to sir/master/daddy whatever he and the community feel comfortable with. respect is earned, not given.....i will probably get flamed for this but...who cares. im polite to everyone....but southern women learn how to politly cut your heart out and feed it to you when they are very young....
