I treat everyone with the common idea of 'human dignity is a birthright'. It has very little to do with respect. Respect is something one feels internally toward another. Treating someone with dignity is something outwardly shown...the actions involved.
What they do with it after that reflects more on them than it does me or my manners.

It's somewhat two fold. If you want respect, you have to give respect.

My remark was aimed more at the "They Earned it"

Argue for your limitations and you get to keep them.

Respect is earned, not automatic. If you want a submissive to respect you, first prove that you deserve it. The people you see in the community, the people you see at play parties, who command widespread respect? They earned it. And by the way, just because someone is a submissive, that does not automatically mean he or she should submit to you. If you don't even know this person's name and have not yet established any kind of relationship whatsoever with this person, assuming you deserve this person's submission is a bit premature......comments!!

I wholeheartedly agree...I would further add in my opinion that just because someone has earned respect doesnt let them off the hook they need to maintain it as well, else they risk losing it.
