Definition of "showee"

When you show a credential there's a protocol whereby the showee has assurance that the shower possesses a credential of the particular type without actually seeing the bit string.

2006, Bruce Christianson, Bruno Crispo, James A. Malcolm, Security Protocols: 12th International Workshop, page 18

A situation of showing implies a 'shower' (the person showing) and the thing shown, as well as the person shown to (the 'showee').

2013, Peter Siemund, Varieties of English: A Typological Approach, page 220

Once the showee looks at the object, the shower removes his or her gaze from the showee and gazes back at the object (see below and Fig. 5.2).
