I've always wondered what everyone's take on defining these terms. For me, I consider myself a wanna be slave. Right now, I am a submissive who wants to serve and be a slave. Just finding a full time Master/Dom/Top is a pain in the butt.
I identify a Dom as being any title they want: Sir, Master, Milord, Daddy, or any other title a Dom chooses. Top vs. Dom....to me I always thought they were the same. Sub vs. bottom I have always thought they were the same as well. To me though, submissive and slave are similar but different in how they serve their Top/Dom/Master/Sir/Milord/Daddy.....etc.
But I like how Sir Russell has defined each differently and well, I just might have to rethink all this.
