Hi, just a general query, if chat or on a messenger a Dom talks to me how do i address them?  Do subs call all Dom's Master or Sir or just their own particular Master?

Thanks

Do what makes you happy.

No, all subs do not call all doms sir.

First off- in real life it's NOT as easy as just looking at their screen name. Secondly, not all doms want to be called sir.  Thirdly, most people relate to people as people, NOT as their personal relationship orientation.

And no one's yet figured out what to do with switches.

So again- do what makes you feel fuzziest.

There are two factors here.  What does he want you to call him and what do you want to call him.  In the cold light of day, until you've decided to submit to a specific person, what you call him is pretty much up to you, but if you want, you can just ask "what would you like me to call you?"  I must have gotten that query hundreds of times and it's never offended me.

Once you find out what he want, then it's up to you if you feel comfortable giving it to him.

Protocols in any venue is still about respect. You do not have to call a person *Master* or *Sir*, which are normally titles that are earned. Just remember to be respectful in how you respond.

I am respectful always until someone proves they don't deserve it. I am only submissive to my Dom and behave that way. I will call someone Master or Sir if those are in their "user name" and can't be avoided. Like if someone was Master D. I would call him that. If someone was Master Daniel. I would call him Daniel.

If you use the Master or Sir from the beginning it will only make you look better and possibly enhance your experience.  If there is a Master you are seeing then you might want to ask him.  Wouldn't want him to get upset if you call another guy Master.

Most of the time out of respect I use Sir.. most will tell you if they don't care if you use it or not..but I like to start out that way.  As long as they respect me.. I will do the same.. they can call me Ticia.. or butterfly.. baby..things like that..but if they think they can just start out calling me slut, cunt, etc... then I pretty much lose respect and the Sir goes out the window.
 
As far as Master goes...that is one I will not use for anyone but my Master.  I think that should be earned..and it's almost impossible to do that part over the computer..to gain that much trust with another.  I am actually not even using it for the One I belong to yet..not until I am collared..from then on He is Master to me.  Now it is Sir..and He doesn't need the titles.. He knows I respect and love Him.. so He doesn't need the validation.
 
In the end it's up to you.... but saving Master.. I think is a great feeling.. it's a gift you only give your One.

i will call a Dom or Master by whatever title or name He wishes to be called.  What i feel is most important, however, is my own inner state, which is one of respect, and of beginning any D/s or M/s relationship with the recognition that we do not stand as equals in it.  If such a One behaves in a way not worthy of respect, i will gracefully make my exit, but my respect is in recognition of my own position as slave as well as honoring the fact that this is a lifestyle of Dominants and submissives, Masters and slaves.  It is my deep feeling and need to behave in a respectful and honorable fashion regardless.

I call them by their given name.  No dominant gets Sir or Ma'am from me until such time as I feel comfortable in using it.  My own Master, a couple months into our relationship, said He thought I should call Him "Sir."  I replied that I felt the term implied a level of respect for Him that I had not yet reached, and that if and when I DID call Him "Sir," He'd know it was genuine, and there would be no question that I respected and admired Him. 
 
As for "Master"... I don't even call Him that.  I refer to Him as Master when speaking about Him, but in everyday life, I call Him "Sir."

First thing I'm going to point out about the use of titles online, and specifically giving one to those with whom I do not have a specific relationship, is a rather old (and some would say worn out) quote from unknown source.
 
              What is given to all has meaning to none.
 
Now, what this means to me is that if I give the title to every Tom, Dick, and Harry (or Tom's hairy dick) who stumbles across me in a chat or forum venue - it becomes practically meaningless to me, rather than holding some sort of "Special" connotation that I associate with MY partner.
 
It is possible to be polite and courteous without going overboard.  I say courteous, rather than respectful, because respect is earned while courtesy is given to everyone until they prove they don't deserve it.  What do I do when someone uses the term "sir" or "master" (or "mistress" in the case of females) in their nic?  I either avoid addressing them directly, or I ask them for something to call them which does Not include a title.  I'm here to talk to People - and all people start as my Peer.  Peers do not get a title from me.  Those with whom I have developed a specific relationship - either as a partner, or a specific friendship of more than strictly casual basis - get titles from me after they have earned the respect that I give along with the title.
