i occasionally call Icehawk Master or Sir, we're pretty relaxed in that area, daddy has been for some time now the name i use most for him,and it's special to us.
extremely rarely i use his first name (and then only if i have to use his name to a 3rd party or he tells me to say it) i dont know why but thats never sat comfortably with me or him lol
when I'm not in session by my name ...but in session Thea...Greek for Goddess....mistress is too common...hehe
Well it seems to be predictable but she calls me Master or Sir. I use her full given first name and second name when addressing her, in RL use the same shortened version as everyone else
I choose to call "master" to my real master... coz it's fit him in there...
But i told my sub to call me "miss" coz i like it that way :D
Wow, I liked to be called so many different things. Its really special when my Master uses my first name, or the shortened version.. but usually that doesnt happen too often. And Im a sucker for just little loving names, like honey, sweetheart, and baby. In playing, I get called pet, or slave, or some not so nice things. But my most recent favorite, is little girl, that's been hitting the spot in more than one area for sure.
My wife and I struggled with this topic as well.
Sir/ Master didn't seem to fit, what I decided was that she was to address me as
"My Love..." In place of Sir and master.
This works for us.
I actually don't care one way or the other what title someone uses when addressing me; so long as it isn't derogetory. It is not like my dominance is dependent upon a form of address.
My own girl calls me by a variety of names through any given day depending on the situation and circumstances.
Certian forms of address I use with her and or she with I are indicators of our preferences at the time. For instance: If we are in a resteraunt or some other public venue and I call her "girl" or "kajira" she knows right away that orders are likely soon to follow; that we are no longer wearing our "vanilla" faces for the publics benifit so to speak.
In more "formal" settings such as a get together with others (were the submissives are under stricter disiplinary requirements) that share our way of life, both of us adjust our use of honorifics apropriately.
In general "Master" is what Seri calls me as her owner and "Sir or Maam" is what she uses with others; unless otherwise directed by them or myself.
It is also my personal belief that I show her as much honor as she does to me when we use the apropriate forms of address with the confines of each situation.
Mistress, Ma'am... I like Miss Beth too, but only in certain situations.
I never adopted a 'scene name', and prefer to be addressed by my given name. However, those who submit to me refer to me as "my Lord", because I feel that "Sir" is a generic term to be used when addressing other dominants.
When I met my master, he was my first and I told him not to expect me to call him Sir or Master or any of that crap. Then one day while chatting I said yes Sir only half sarcastically and soon I was calling him Master or Sir all of the time. Then one day he said he felt he was much older than me at times and suggested that maybe we really had a Daddy - little girl relationship. At one time I would have been offended by this, but it wasn't meant as a put down. I tried it and it just felt right. He has been Daddy ever since.
My Rose started as an acquaintance, and I was Chuck. When I collared her, I became Sir to her, as I was not comfy with 'Master'.
After a year, when we had met in R/L a couple times and knew each other, I became 'Master'... and with her, it was good. She is my subbie and slave, but most of all, my dearest Love.
Now my slave calls me "Most powerful of potentates". If you know where its from, its not particularly flattering.
My girl calls me Prince which is kinda cute and that sure isnt something I complain about. Perhaps King would be more "Domly" or something but naah, Prince is just fine :)
I actually prefer 'Master' over 'Mistress' even though I'm female.
My pet calls me Master, and refers to me as such to everyone else when talking about me (with the exclusion of immediate family...they're really vanilla), but I don't allow anyone else to do so. If I'm playing with someone else I ask what title they're comfortable with using, as long as it's not disrespectful, it's fine.
Have you tried Madam? Seems like maybe a good middle ground...?
Anyway, my master has me refer to him as Sir when we are alone. Though he makes it rather challenging, because sometimes when we're just lounging about, he prefers I go back to his first name. But then the atmosphere will change and suddenly I'll know that I should be addressing him by Sir. When in public, it's usually his first name, but occasionally he will tell me to address him formally in public.
i feel weird now. lol. sometimes when were heavy heated + being sexy + etc, i just love it when he calls me mommy. omg. with that lil whimper + big eyes.. he has always been my puppy boy. whats odd tho he's older than me! haha. im 21 + he'l b 28 hehe.
but other than that were more lax. if i demand something of him he says nothing bak, only bows his head + does his task. a few times he's calld me mistress but sarcastically in public lol. i havent found something that clicks yet. he's my life partner so just eye contact shows me his submission. . . .
very much like a good puppy. :D
LMAO! That sounds like something I would try to get away with. haha!
For me, I don't think I could ever be in a collared relationship with someone who didn't insist on "Master." The word holds so much meaning and importance to me, that I would consider a master who didn't insist on it to be completely incompatible with me.
On a related note though, my master would be severely displeased if I referred to ANY other dominant party in any particularly deferential way, be it master, sir, ma'am, whatever. milady, milord. Doesn't matter. I am to address anyone but him as a complete equal because I am not THEIR sub/slave/pet. I am a complete equal with anyone but him and those who cannot respect that, do not spend time with us.
i prefer mistress... something about hearing it moaned and begged to me, makes my blood rush!!!
I am mostly Mistress, or my first name when we're in too public/ vanilla places.
But one time, when I was really sick, he called me his Princess, and that moved me so much that it became my nick and special private name that he only uses in special ocasions.
Besides that, he always uses You when speaking to me (which is more noticeable in Dutch then English, and can give funny looks from family when he forgets to be more familiar :) ) even though I am 10 years younger then he is :rolleyes:
