From a personal perspective I spent my formative years learning the art of grammar and diction. It's something I enjoyed immensely. As an avid reader of all types of literature I find the written and spoken word very arousing when done properly.

Being able to express oneself this way is a trait of a person who thinks carefully, who takes pride in their considerations and who wishes to make the best of impressions on others.

This in my opinion does not particulary indicate dominance, or to that end, submission. It simply illustrates to me the type of person with whom I would have something in common and a foundation for exploration.

When discussing titles for individuals, we must look beyond the Sir/Master scenario and consider respect. For example I would not expect to be greeted by a student using my christian name, or some such other 'friendly' term. I am greeted as Mrs/Miss as per expectation. On the same hand, in a situation such as the chat room, it seems to me we all have 'nicks' and as such should be adressed by them. With familiarity we can request alternatives. Respect!

Strong personalities are great sparring partners and a huge attraction, at least because you cant miss them. But one must not take away from those of us who are quietly confident and wish to integrate ourselves carefully. That is not to say we are not capable of being strong or confident when sure of our footing.

Very interesting discussion, thank you.
