The idea of the social pyramid is an explanation of social rank. Basically, the king was at the top, alone. The nobility were below the king. Below the nobility were serfs. Somewhat apart from this were the various religious people, with the Pope at the top, the bishops below, and the priests, monks, and nuns below them. The precise structure varies according to who is describing it.

How does the Social Pyramid affect your life?

It can affect your life because if you are on top, then you have a lot of power probably. Take medieval times for example. Monarchs were on the top of the social pyramid, and serfs were on the bottom. (Serf: a peasant who was "Bound to the land in which he/she was born upon"[Feudalism].) So, in another words, it can greatly impact your life because it determines weather or not you have a certain amount of power, and if you are popular, stuff like that.

How does the social pyramid go?

A social pyramid is a model of social people. The people with whom an individual has the least amount of social intimacy are placed at the foundation of the pyramid. At the top of the pyramid is the individual. And on each subsequent layer going down, the individual has less and less intimacy. For example, the person you interacted with while in line at the grocery store is at the base of your pyramid, but your spouse or lover would be very close to the top. It has been said that the what one brings to one's [social network] is what one creates with one's social pyramid.
