Summary

This quote suggests that competence is subjective and can vary from person to person. Just like how truth and beauty can be perceived differently by individuals, the same applies to the judgment of someone's competence. Different people have different standards and perspectives when evaluating the abilities and skills of others. Therefore, what one person considers as competent may not be seen the same way by someone else. Ultimately, this quote emphasizes the subjectivity and relativity of competence, suggesting that it is subjective and based on the perception of the observer.

The fact that boys are allowed to exist at all is evidence of remarkable Christian forbearance among men--were it not for a mawkish humanitarianism, coupled with imperfect digestive powers, we should devour our young, as Nature intended.
