I agree with pretty much with everything here, but what is the difference between fame, power and status? They seem like similar adjectives, but of different sizes:
I see a man with status as being respected by the men in his social circle and desired by the women. I see a man with fame, as someone respected by men and desired by women outside his social circle. Lastly, i see a man with power as someone with even more social capital than men that have fame and status.
Ken’s comment is very perceptive, and I agree with it. An excellent summary. I have been wondering about the differences between status, power and fame for a long time now. They seemed to be different, but I had a hard time putting my finger on it.
- Status: A man who is respected by the men in his social circle and desired by the women.
- Fame: A man who is respected by men and desired by women outside his social circle
- Power: A man who has even more social capital than men that have fame and status.
