Without getting into the drama, I don't actually see anything judgemental in this paticular OP and it's wording. In fact, it's quite neutral and allows for varying opinions/roles, etc. I think it's well-written taken. To answer the OP, not all s types are owned or property, however, I've seen some s types that were completely devoted and in TPE type situations (whether they called it that or not) and seen some "owned" s types that weren't as open to being controlled. That's not to suggest that I believe everyone should be open to it. It's a matter of preference, personality and relationship structure. Nor do I believe one should jump into such a level (yeah yeah the word actually isn't evil). Attempting to be something you are not is only setting the relationship or dynamic up for failure and suggesting one is greater than the other doesn't take that into account. One may be greater than the other for an individual, however. This is also my problem with labels and that we make assumptions about them that are often not true for individuals. Personally when I am in an s type situation I could care less what I am called as long as I am with someone that I am with compatible that I care about that who understands and cares for me and not just as a role.
