[Humiliation of any sort is nature's way of telling you never to do that again. If it wasn't deeply unpleasant (to everyone except the occasional oddball), it wouldn't be doing its job.

Oh goodness me; she also seems to recommend dancing - both for its inherent happiness-making qualities and also because so many people find it humiliating (me included). I have heard of occasions in the murkier depths of perverted depravity, filth and evil, of women who amuse themselves by make a man d**ce. As an Englishman of a certain age, I sensibly abstain from the muse of terpsichore; as unnatural an act for me as attempting to fly like a bird, swim like a fish or burrow like a mole. It is surely not what my ungainly body is designed for. Certain forms of humiliation (e.g. interrogation scenes, punishment, ritual acts of various kinds) have a great appeal for me, but nothing as extreme as d**cing.

I agree with this absolutely, d**cing is such a hard limit for me. Though I do find the threat of me d**cing out side the kids school gate is the most effective way of keeping them in line. Indeed, I now wonder whether a similar strategy would work on @DeviantPlay *sniggers*

I think rather it's not nature, but your own ego that's communicating with you, and, useful as it is, that particular entity needs keeping in its place from time to time. To humiliate is to humble.
But, yeah, it's a harsh word with harsh connotations (outside of this demi-monde, anyway). We're really just talking about showing vulnerability to someone who'll treat it well, and getting a little relief from overly constricting egos.
