Titels & Aanspreektitels

Titles and Honorifics means using or receiving an agreed title when addressing a partner within a consensual adult dynamic. A title may express a chosen power role, a pet and handler relationship or another shared meaning. The title and the authority, if any, associated with it must be discussed separately.

Hoe het is

Partners might choose "Handler," "Sir," "Ma’am" or another personally meaningful term. Some use a title only during a scene; others agree on specific everyday settings. Gendered terms, formality and associations vary between people.

A title can be enjoyable without a broad power exchange. It does not grant control over decisions, privacy or activities beyond what the people involved have actually agreed.

Veiligheid & toestemming

This is role-play among consenting adults. Agree on language, touch, activities and limits before starting, and keep a clear way to pause or stop. Anyone can speak normally or leave character at any time. Actual animals are never participants. Discuss wording, context and who may use the title. Respect privacy in public or shared messages. Never use a title to claim consent, demand obedience beyond agreed limits or dismiss a request to stop.
