成语解释
　　三六九等（sān liù jiǔ děng）
　　解释：指等级和类别多，有种种差别。
　　出处：清·曹雪芹《红楼梦》第75回：“只不过我这一会子输了几两银子，你们就三六九等了。”
　　早有东汉史学家．文学家班固（公元32~92年）把古今人物归入其《汉书．古今人表》的“九品量表”之中，分为上（上智）．中（中人）．下（下愚）三等。在每个等级中又分为：上上．上中．上下，中上．中中．中下，以及下上．下中和下下三等。这也许就是后人分三六九等的来源吧。
　　三六九等只是一种说法，也有说人分十等，意思是人分贵贱。过去的说法是：
　　一官;二吏;三僧;四道;五医;六工;七匠;八娼;九儒;十丐
　　==================================================
　　等级森严的奴隶社会、封建社会将人分为三六九等， 别先把别人划出三六九等,都打倒. 出身贫寒. 为人高贵的大有人在. 贫寒仅限于物质, 精神思想上的才是真正的高贵.很多生于富足之家的人, 精神上实际佷卑劣
