Here is a simple but reliable way to rate a man's true strength. In a word.. Don't! Instead.. Look at how he rates himself. I can guarantee that he does!
There is a phenomenon in the animal kingdom that I, as a farmer, deal with constantly.... We call it the "pecking order". In every little "society" of animals there is a natural order of top to bottom. The top is the most dominant strongest, most capable, boldest ones. They get to eat first, best spots to sleep, and mate most. Natural leaders and followers emerge. It always happens, 100%of the time in every society.
The same thing happens with men. We as men naturally find our order in society, or place. We are pushed down from above and still dominate what is below. Every man's natural ways establish this quickly in life. In fact, at every stage from toddler hood onward, men fall into and fight for their place.
Want to rate a man? Simple... Look at who he dominates and submits to. Not so much individuals, but classes of other men. What type in man dies he identify with.. His comfort zone? Who does he complain about? Those are above him. Who does he feel compassion for? Those are below him. Who does he relax with? Those are peers. Who does he stand up to? Challenge? Those are just above him.
This is reality and it works. She, through their lives men climb up the pecking order gradually... But their starting point and therefore their reasonable end point week be set at an early age.
It works for any man, anywhere. You can both tell what kind of man he is, and what kind of life he will lead.
Don't rate a man..... Instead perceive how he has already rated himself.
