    To humiliate someone is to make him/her feel ashamed and foolish by injuring his/hers dignity.

    Lack of dignity is:

    • Lacking composure: Engaging in behavior that is inappropriate, unrefined, or embarrassing, like staggering or reeling across a room in a very undignified fashion.
    • Demeaning others: Believing you can disregard the worth of others to make yourself feel more valuable.

    Ergo, you can’t humiliate someone without dignity.
