The hodgepodge system we have now demeans nearly all those who touch it .
目前这种杂乱的体系,会让几乎所有接触到它的人都有失身份。
In recent weeks , the country 's ministry of culture has instructed tattoo parlors to refrain from inscribing religious images on the bodies of foreign tourists , arguing that it demeans thailand and the buddhist faith .
最近几周,泰国文化部要求刺青店不能给外国游客的身体纹上宗教形象,认为这会贬低泰国及其佛教信仰。
If your boyfriend demeans you , makes you account for your whereabouts , tells you how to dress and act , or tries to dictate who you can and cannot see , those are all forms of abuse .
