Yes, I agree. Degradation for one person could be totally different for someone else; and it can be a *very* emotional and deep.

I've met people who find being forced to kneel and kiss the top of a Domme's boots degrading.

And I was at an outdoor event once where I saw several Doms/Dommes completely degrade a naked women sub. It involved mud and filth and forcing her to pee on herself. The behavior actually looked like bad bullying to me. My instincts kicked in and I had to actively concentrate to keep from intervening. I ended up walking away, I didn't like what I was seeing.

She (the sub) liked it though. She was an extreme player.
