    Like? No. But that behavior is tolerated when opportunism trumps self-worth. (Pun intended!)

    I guess a lot depends on how much you value/respect yourself Lyric. You teach people how to treat you. If you tolerate being treated like a doormat that is exactly how people will view you. It just seems anti-human to accept public humiliation for any reason. Thank you for your reply! :)

    Sadly we seem to have a lot of "anti-humans" in the public eye these days. :-(

    You mean if you think you deserve it? That would be a terrible way to go through life though, wouldn't it Patch? Having no respect for yourself and accepting whatever treatment folks dished out to you? Thank you for your reply and Happy Wednesday! :)

    Well, it's not necessarily that. Some people just get off on it. It's just another weird kink.

    Yes, but we'd like you even more if you'd stop doing that.

    Many ascribe to victim consciousness and think that is all they deserve from their betters.
