Interesting thread, Psynymph!

I have a hard time rationalizing humiliation in my mind because the word has an inherent negative connotation, yet I like it! A conundrum for sure. A while back whilst discussing this topic with others, a different definition was offered that I really like...

we called humiliation "pleasantly embarrassing".

As far as my likes in humiliation go, I would say if I can define it as "pleasantly embarrassing", it's all good. Of course, just because it's pleasant, doesn't mean it's going to be easy... but what would be embarrassing if I didn't have a blush or hesitation?
