The verbal side of things
The 'do this bitch!' sorta thing is absolutely ridiculous and a complete turn-off. My Master doesn't do anything like that, because he too knows it's ridiculous.

The curling up at his feet thing? I don't get told to do it, I just feel extremely comfortable there, a Master/Slave relationship isn't all about being whacked with stuff for their pleasure, getting gimped up and such like... sure all the gear and things are fun, but the foundation and main reason is the relationship itself.

I feel subservient to him, and its comforting to sit for example at his feet, where I feel his physical presence dominates me. In return for my submission to him, which is pretty much absolute.. he guides me, looks after me and under him I know I won't come to any harm.

It's a relationship built heavily on trust, respect and commitment, far more fulfilling and enjoyable than any vanilla relationship I've had previously.

Roleplay is silly, verbal is silly.. but if subservience is actually part of you, it comes naturally. Since I was taken on by him, I've never once called him his name to his face, it has always been Sir/Master. I didn't make a conscious decision to do this, and nor did he demand it.. these things come naturally to me through respect. I'm in fact absolutely petrified of public exhibitionism, but I'll address him in public like that, and even walk round London in a collar... because I respect him hugely.

It's all about the mindset, I still find a lot of stuff silly, but other subs with different mindsets wouldn't. They might really feel empowered to be forced to bark out 'PLEASE SIR, I BEG OF YOU CAN I SUCK YOUR COCK, THANK YOU SIR THANK YOU SIR!' whereas I'd just laugh. Each sub/slave serves differently, responds to different things. :)

Gosh. How interesting.
Personally, I hate the thought of owning or being owned. To me the sign of respect in a relationship is a lack of need for the control of another, or to be controlled. A bit like a conversation.

But ... very interesting.

It's not quite complete control
Because at the end of the day, I retain overall control of myself.. as what many people forget is that I have LET him take control. It's somewhat different to slavery of the 1500s... but yeah. The whole thing is a ridiculously complex thing that is somewhat difficult to explain concisely on a message forum. :)

Master
I've let slip and called my Dom 'Master' Public. We got a few strange looks. I've also had him feed me my drink while I had my arms behind my back in a pub. The scenes are fun, and submissive flight is by far the most intense thing I've ever experienced, but I just love the D/s undertones that are constant.

Calling someone Master is a big thing for me, and it took me a lot to do it, and while going through a tricky patch I couldn't bring myself to do it at all. But when you feel owned and protected, it is the most lovely feeling in the world.

Sure is
The first time I shouted Sir across a shop to get his attention felt.. interesting.

Forever turning heads in London centre, he likes to scratch the back of my neck and I go quite puppish and make little noises and writhe around. :P
