indignity
This term describes a specific type of shame rooted in the violation of one's social standing or personal honor. It differs from general embarrassment by implying a power imbalance where the victim is forced to submit to a degrading situation, often imposed by an external authority or a cruel peer.
Because it refers to the loss of self-respect, it is frequently paired with verbs of endurance or suffering. It carries a heavy emotional weight, suggesting a wound to the spirit rather than a mere social faux pas.
