    I have. Imagine yourself as a 14 year old new high schooler lying beside the school swimming pool in a collapsed heap, totally naked, panting and having almost drowned, surrounded by 20 or so similarly attired boys, some gaping at you, some snickering, some making snide remarks, while the gym coach bellows questions from the other side.

    This event went viral, of course, following me about my classes. One offender who had been there chided me in class, laughing, imitating a dog-paddle with his hands. If he only knew he was on the verge of serious physical harm.....

    This event, one of several humiliations, have followed me throughout my life as returning glimpses of it in my mind. Psychologically almost devastating.

    My relatives specialize in such things, including "parents."

    @Frank Sanoica - work on trying to forget such things. Serves no purpose, but to hold you back in life now.
    Plus, long time ago, and hopefully these guys have matured and and have changed their ways.
    But ,yes, i have been humiliated several times in life.
