For those of you who enjoy this type of play, how do you define it?

I define humiliation play as anything that results in the person feeling humilitated, which is defined on wikipedia as "the abasement of pride, which creates mortification or leads to a state of being humbled or reduced to lowliness or submission."

Perhaps you meant to ask "for those who enjoy this type of play, how do you accomplish it"?

For us that would be through verbal abuse (namecalling, pointing out flaws), shaming ("how slutty you are for getting wet like that"), putting her into submissive, exposing, or degrading positions, forcing her to do embarrassing things, compromising photographs to possibly be shown to others, and so on.

Some people like extreme degradation, some like verbal, physical, public, all sorts of different scenarios.

I find that discussing what it is that I like in this arena is very hard to convey unless I know someone really well, lest they misunderstand me and my motivations.

That is because many men I have spoken to think humiliation is something that you like because you have low self esteem.

On the contrary, one can be confident and have high levels of self esteem and yet there is something very hot about feeling a certain way and the fact that one can admit to this and experience it, says alot about their self awareness.

Another person might love that. Degrading to another could be, You are my naughty, nasty, cum sucking whore.

So it really really varies as to what words do to different people.

Exactly.  In my case, I feel far more degraded when he calls me "sweetie", tells me I'm beautiful, and treats me gently.  Strange, I know, but that's what does it for me.

True dat.  But that itself wouldn't bother or humiliate me. Having an outsider over-hear it would though.  It would make 'him' look bad, therefore humiliating me in the process.

He's done things which should humiliate me, but for some reason just don't.  I don't know if it's just the way I feel about him.  I'm quite sure that if anyone else did x, y or z to me I'd be mortified, but not with him.

Regarding name-calling - it kinda goes like this between us:

Him: You dirty fucking slut
Me (smiling): But I'm your dirty fucking slut my love
Him: laughs

:-)

It's an extreme show of intimacy and submission, having to take being spoken to or treated a certain way. And, well, I just find it hot. Can't help it. I get off on it.

One day, though, he had me done up like a pony, which, while I know many people do enjoy that, for me is the most humiliating thing I could do - oh, the whole bit - he took the furniture out of my bedroom and covered it in straw and bales of hay and...well...it was a very interesting day. I hated it. I hate pony play, never wanted to do it, hated the thought of it, and that was something I found more humiliating than any of the other countless acts that would raise some eyebrows. I hated it while it was going on, but...looking back....afterwards, we had one of our most intimate experiences as a couple together.

Hmm...so...am I supposed to be "getting off" on humiliation? Or is it not humiliation if I'm actually enjoying it? Either way...I love it, whether it's while it's going on, or the afterglow.

Status: offline 		I found one definition that fits my feelings about humiliation~~ broken: subdued or brought low in condition or status; "brought low"; "a broken man"; "his broken spirit"; demeaned; stripped of respect.

And, as others have commented, while there may be some objective events that would humiliate almost all, it's mainly a very personal thing. Whatever pierces your armor. Name calling doesn't do it for me. I may feel embarrassed but not humiliated, particularly not in the erotic sense; not taken to that very demeaning place that cuts to the core and yet somehow still excites me.

For me, what humiliates most is being treated in a dehumanized, debasing way in front of others, in front of friends of my domme who know that I am, in the vanilla world, respected and accomplished. Being stripped of that respect in front of such people and treated in a degrading manner, whether it be through watersports or a severe caning that brings me to tears but where I am required to beg for more, or leashed and restricted to barking, not speaking, causes me to feel humiliated.

Status: offline 		Hmm, for me the difference between "good humiliation" and "bad humiliation" depends on both the context and the actual feelings of the other person. I really wouldn't be okay with, for example, being with someone that actually thought I was a filthy slut or being called that openly in front of vanilla people. Or with being called stupid or ugly. But when someone who actually respects me degrades me in certain contexts...... YUM YUM.

Status: offline 		I disagree. Unless you know your partner very well or have a script, how can you know what will be said in a session?

I have been involved in situations where I knew my partner very well, and yet something he said or tried to say as something new, totally pushed a wrong button for me and had a bad effect on me.

So, you cannot make generalizations about this type of thing.

Humiliation is one of the things I really don't like. It totally gets under my skin and causes real suffering. As a masochist, this is pretty hot.

There are of course a few problems. I have a pretty healthy love of myself, in fact I'm absolutely smitten with myself, so I have sort of a high threshold and tolerance for humiliation. I mean it takes a great deal to get under my skin. Anything obviously artificial or scripted is going to, at most, bore me and make me feel awkward for the person trying and failing to humiliate me. This in turn makes me feel a sort of amusement and a pale sadistic glow of pleasure, which is a weird thing to feel during a scene.

The other problem is that when a lot of women realize humiliation is genuinely uncomfortable and unpleasant for me, they're inclined to stop or tone it down. Again this is counterintuitive and sort of amusing. It's like humiliation is only fun as long as nobody gets their feelings hurt, which I am pretty sure is the opposite of how I see it.

Also for me quips, insults and ripostes are more likely to be fun and invigorating than humiliating. Again I'm sort of thick skinned and I find wit hot. What's most humiliating is being reminded I'm in a position I really don't want to be in and can't do anything about it which means that it's more supplemental to a scene than it is a scene unto itself.

Threats of public embarrassment or discovery are also humiliating but again that takes a very particular type of woman to make it count.

The ideal humiliation usually involves outsiders blaming the victim. I.E. Being naked in public, an expert being beaten by a loser, someone saying something very stupid.
