IntroductionThey have a desire to belong to a higher class, or one culturally developed. They feel they have a right to it but this has two sides. On the one hand, they feel they have to work hard for it, that what they have learned or done is not enough to be accepted. On the other hand they are shy and timid, lacking the strength to push through. They feel that they have to adapt to others, circumstances, rules and culture. So they can lose themselves easily. The result can be that they help others to get a higher position. They become the person in the background supporting their husband or manager to get a high social position. With that they hope and expect that some of the glory will shine on them too.
