I must be a weird one then because I have never really needed one, but then again I dont view the dominant/submissive thing as "status" but rather simply identity. I treat all people the same up until the point they make a choice to enter into service to me.

Anything else is simply a polite sign of respect that is always appreciated, but never a "birth right" simply because of my self imposed label.

(In case you havent noticed the jist of this is one of my highly opinionated pet peeves)

I think that anyone who takes themselves seriously always uses the Andalusian system of ranking and capitalization usage.

As to speaking in third person, it's one of the many small ways that she shows her position.  she is His property and His pet - His television is known as "the television" - His computer is known as "the computer" and, if He had one, His cat would be known as "the cat" - and so, His girl is known just as that, girl. This girl has always found it a bit annoying herself, in general, but these are the rules He wishes upon her and so she complies, happily. :)

lilsub, that was too subtle sarcasm...I just made that up

This girl is going to put her two cents in because not only does she talk in third person (a practice that she understands is very irksome.), but she also uses the capitalization rule when speaking to her Master.  she and her Master spend a part of our time in this realm and because of that He has instilled small rules, like capping references to Him and speaking in third person as a way for this girl to always have to think about her place when she's interacting with Him - even if it's just over chat and telling Him about her day. This girl is educated, articulate, and can't stand the abuse she sees of grammar rules in much of the conversation that goes on, generally, online. she's got a sneaking suspicion that He enjoys it because He knows it makes her twitch a bit. ;)

Most pets get names. Even on farms the animals that are going to be eaten get names. They are just called Lunch and Dinner.

 I have a question.   Do you speak like that in regular conversation?   I know it gets on other people's nerves, but using it as a tool to reinforce the concept you are your Dominant's and not your own makes sense to me personally.  You no longer have an identify outside of that which is set up for you by your Dominant.  Etc etc?
