Have you ever felt wind gliding across your face from altitudes as high as 250 feet up? I have and this is the narration and evidence of my clumsiness, especially at high altitudes. What exactly is embarrassment and what am I talking about? Embarrassment is when someone feels foolish in public and this story is about an example from my life. It was a hot and humid Summer morning, when I got in the car and left to go zip lining at Banning Mills in Georgia. I will never forget that day of my life, because not only did I basically face-plant into a tree, I ceased the day with various other minor injuries. First of all, I will be talking about what already had started as a rough day far before I even arrived at Banning Mills, where I would

Embarrassment can be one of the hardest pills to swallow; I know this because of firsthand experience. As humans we go through humiliation all the way through life. I do not know a single person who went through life without a moment of discomfiture, if someone has then they must not live a very audacious life. My personal experience was not only utterly embarrassing but also broadcasted on national television. I was competing in the National Little Britches Rodeo Association Finals at the Colorado State Fairgrounds in Pueblo, Colorado. I have never been one to mull over a certain moment but incidents like this tend to stick with you. What I learned from this experience, I will never forget.
Whenever irony is voiced, embarrassment emerges within me along with the date December 26, 2016, where my brother and I were snowboarding for the first time at "Nub's On Nob", a ski resort in northern Michigan. Once we received the basic training of how to maneuver the snowboards and the manners of safety that we should pursue, we began a day of repetitive actions such as riding the lift and gliding down a snow filled hill. After a few mindless hours of this process, my brother eventually leans close to my visage and says "I am surprised, neither one of us have ran into anyone going down the hill so far". At first I merely passed it off as a simple joke but once off the ski lift my mind began to race towards the idea of accidentally running
Throughout Cultural Perspectives, many influential texts have been read, analyzed, and discussed. One text, Life in the Iron Mills by Rebecca Harding Davis, integrates the thoughts of quite a few authors that have been discussed this semester. Through employing a Marxist view of history—there are always the “haves” and the “have-nots”—one can see that Life in the Iron Mills exemplifies the struggles that face many “have-not” citizens throughout history. One can then see the clear connections to various authors such as Mary Wollstonecraft, W.E.B. DuBois, Karl Marx and Freidrich Engels, and Adam Smith.
I had returned to my old home, and the house was the same as when I left. Well, on the outside. When I walked inside things were broken, and some things were not even there. I showed the guests around the house and to their

To a human, humiliation is deep because it messes with a human’s self-respect. Whenever you are in front of a big group[ of people and they laugh at you, you sense an even greater
Some people are more sensitive towards being embarrassed than others. For some there will be no punishment because they may not mind it. They might think that it is funny or brag about committing their crimes. Other is could devastate, and cause serious social problems for them. When a judge sentences someone to be humiliated, “[t]heir primary goal is to court publicity, and that publicity can not be accurately anticipated or controlled” (Beato).
The article ‘Embarrassment and Social Organisation’ was written for the American Journal of sociology in 1956, since then Goffman 's work on embarrassment has been the backbone of understanding the sociology of embarrassment, as well as understanding the structures that reinforce the embarrassment. Goffman suggests that embarrassment is a recognisable deviation from the ease that is considered natural during social interaction. Embarrassment can be recognised through signs of emotional disturbance, blushing fumbling stuttering or change in voice, blinking or other actions that can be considered improper given the social interaction. Goffman describes two types of embarrassment, sustained
The brain, one of the most vital parts of the body, does many things to help in people’s daily life. It helps to interpret information and controls everything that happens in the body, even while sleeping. However, it can cause many effects on a person’s attitude and mood and can cause the threat-detection system to react. In society, the teens and kids don’t always have to fit in or be in a big group, but still have the fear of getting rejected, making each one’s self-esteem lower. This activity is known as embarrassment. Teens and kids throughout the world get it every day between school, social media, and even just in the middle of the public. Embarrassment is caused when seeing the world changes in teens brains as the hormones power up. From the day kids start learning things all the way up until they die, brain pruning occurs. That happens when the kids, teens, and adults use some of the information originally learned as a baby or very young kid, and it gets lost and put away until starting to use the information again. The two major differences between embarrassment and brain pruning is the effects they leave on people and what the process is in both.
