Undermining Dignity: Embarrassment


Embarrassment is when you feel shameful or humiliated in public. Nobody likes the feeling when they are embarrrassed because the people around would laugh or think negative thoughts about you. That undermines people's dignity because they feel like they are just a joke to society and they feel shameful and upset. In this picture, a rugby player is pantsed by another player, and sadly, it was caught on camera which is even more embarrassing because people will remember the moment and keep bothering you about it. It is related to bullying. In many forms of bullying, the bully talks or shows embarrassing moments about the victim and then the victim would feel bad and their dignity would be undermined.
