As I recall it, the Master/Mister practice was _not_ parallel to
the Mistress (Mrs) / Mistress (Miss) practice; it marked age
rather than marital status. Call me Master, call me Mister, just
don't call me Maitreya.
As this really has very little to do with comp.unix.wizards, I have
directed followups to talk.bizarre.
