Domination/submission (D/s) Protocols, Pronouns and Titles
As in other realms, formal D/s protocols may sometimes be observed. For example, in print a dominant woman may be referred to as a Domme, rather than a domme, the capital letter showing her dignity. The submissive, when writing, may fail to capitalize the pronoun "i," despite its normally being capitalized, as a way of showing submission.
In speech, male or female slaves may be forbidden the use of a name and may use expressions like "this slave" "this girl" or "this one" to refer to themselves in the third person. Such rules and protocols are established explicitly within a relationship, or in the case of a D/s community, within that community (such as Kink.com's The Upper Floor).
