For one, the only people who are capable of disrespecting me at the ultimate level, are loved ones. And once they disrespected me "at the ultimate level", I wouldn't care what they think or say anymore because they would no longer be one of my loved ones. Most of your possible answers are forms of physical violence. Violence is up there for me, but not from a stranger. Someone I dont know and dont care about could never disrespect me in a way that I'd care about. It would just be assault.
Insulting my mom wouldnt offend me. You dont know my mom, and I would just think you were a juvenile idiot. Sleeping with my partner, to disrespect me? I'm ethically non monogamous and polyamorous. My partner can do what they like as long as it is within the boundries we have set. I have been sexually harassed and sexually assaulted. The ones from strangers didnt matter. The one that mattered was from a partner who did that to me.
The ultimate for me has more to do with my relationship to that person. It is lying, but in the big way. Or talking poorly about me behind my back. Stealing from me, breaking trust, ignoring my boundries and taking actions that directly harm me, violence included.
The ultimate disrespect is betraying my trust. And someone I dont know or care about cant do that to me.
