Some doms can do that with positions (such as Russell and myself) and some do that with harsh words, titles, and demeaning tasks. Some subs find the simple act of being put across the knee to be extremely humiliating. Some by writing on their bodies.
We all have our own idea of what is and isn't humiliating, but humiliation play is no more and no less than another means to the same end.
There are many paths and each journey is worthy of our attention.
