Taking an acting class may do interesting things to the way you value status. Based on my limited experience, having everyone in the class play low and high status roles can create a highly compassionate, cooperative, and egalitarian environment.
I actually love acting, so that might be part of it. I have trouble playing... "arrogant, high-status people who feel their opinions are worth more solely because of their status", though. I can read the lines, but I can't really "get in to character".
