ORIGINAL: crouchingtigress I think I can say this accross the board, but if any one believes differrntly please chime in: No one in the real world leather lifestyle would demand you use the word Master on a first meeting. The key words here are "demand", and "Master", That is not to say that there are not those that prefer to be called Sir, but Master is reserved for folks that have slaves/subs and is used exclusivly by them, or have achieved a level of skill or recognition over a period of time. I want to preface this by saying that I am a self reknowned asshole, and on occasion, an externally reknowned asshole, so no insult will be garnered from answers to this question (no matter how hard you may try). Please answer with honesty. I have only ever insisted that I be referred (sp?) to by title once. I was at a play/birthday party for a friend of a friend. There was booze, so I was there. One girl started to talk to me and the more I conversed with her, the more I realized that she was a sub. I don't really remember how sub, I was well on my way to hammeredsville by this point. But as an indicator, my memory reminds me that only after I insisted on being referred (again, sp?) to as Lord (miLord, so on and so forth) did she really take interest in me. I had only just met this person less than half an hour prior, and most of that time was spent making sure my friend had not gone and left without me, so one could say I pretty much "demanded" this right off of the bat. My rationale for using the term Lord instead of Master is two-fold. 1) Lord simply implies a heightened state of dominion, not ownership and 2) Master seems too much like mister, and the implications of that in a sexually driven conversation really creep me out. So, here's the question: (and before you say anything, no I do not love to hear myself talk, I love to hear myself type) Does this fall under the category of stepping out of bounds as a Dom?
