Yes, please. That something is standard in the BDSM community is of no import for me. "consensual humiliation" fits the bill fine, so thank you for coining it. The same would apply to violence, degradation, etc.

Whatever is standard within the BDSM community should stay so within the community. Using it outside of it would be like using professional jargon with lay people. Again, thanks for quickly coming up with a good alternative.
