ORIGINAL: SirSix72 if I am respectable to my title and show you common curtosity by addressing you as such you are,sub/slave, I do tend to like little one and have been saying this for alot of years and im not referring to you as slut or whore then shouldnt the same approach be returned to Me as Sir or Master..this dosent mean I am your Owner by any means or that I would give you some ambigious task because you have an honorific or title, thats unbecoming of a man of honor and respect.... I believe that this is the point exactly. In my opinion, and in that of many I know, it *is* "rude" to address one accorfing to their "station". The polite/courteous/mannerly way, in these circles, is to address one another as *fellow human beings*. Having a different relational role, *not* in a relationship with one another, does not give them status/station in social situations. Now - that may differ depending on specific group/party/event - and if it's expected that one has a "station" at that group/party/event, then one is agreeing to that simly by being there. However. If not in that type of situation, and not in relationship with the other, then there is no station. There is human being one and human being two - both deserving of equal courtesy and equal "respect". No special titles, no special treatment. As for as "little one" - it's been pointed out by several people in this thread and others that to some it's not only irritating, it's offensive. If one continues to address others in a known-to-be offensive way - I certainly don't call that "respectful", no matter *that* you perceive your (or their) "station" to be.
