There is one view which says the terms "master" and "slave" don't have any meaning outside their use to refer to a status within a particular relationship, when thier meaning is determined by how they are used by those individuals.

"master" - someone into D&S who has a specific relationship with a sub "slave" - someone into D&S who has a specific relationship with a dom

                 These terms are used in a great variety of conflicting ways.
                 They might be used by one couple when doing a one off role
                 playing scene, based on historical slavery.  Another couple
                 may define their whole relationship on that basis, using
                 welded collars, powers of atourney and a 24/7 no safeword
                 agreement to make it as permanent as possible.
