It’s a social hierarchy.

I think this is one element to the broader aspects of social hierarchy. It's fairly commonly understood less than 50% of men have approval from women. You can estimate somewhere between 15-25% have approval but it's only conditional, for what i think is a form of management. These men are dependent on the approval of how they are managed and in turn gain the authority to manage those under them in social statues. Probably 5% or less have genuine approval and it's only because they have so many external markers of value, a female (or man) would look foolish to play games of assessment. This establishes what i consider a predetermined emotional framing which almost all social interaction is predicated on. I've seen people lose their mind when someone calls out what is perceived to be a misalignment in the qualities of what ever, versus the "framing" of it. I think this cannot be tolerated because it upsets the apple cart too much and lifts the veil on the holes in the system, as well as implicitly questions a persons value. I know people who have an abundance of approval (possibly even genuine) but dismiss it (even if they benefit from it) because they see transparently how vapid it is and don't want some bullshit hollow fluff to predetermine or skew an interpretation subsequent to everything that will be. This leads to being classified as Budah or something or people think they have a superiority complex because most are subconsciously operating on this system and for a person to dismiss approval i suspect it's interpreted as the individual thinking they are such higher status, they don't have to consider a persons input from so far under them. This system has an effect of defaulting to a person of authority determined almost exclusively by social status. I heard Patrick Bet David and Jordan Peterson discuss this by asking "how do you recognize a better point or comment made rather than defaulting to a position of authority?" This phenomenon may be too deeply ingrained into the social fabric to overcome (at least in most cases).
