No man should ever do these things, but here is a list. Rank from most beta to least:

Being a ‘guy friend’
Volunteering to do something outside of your job description
Signing up for a protection plan or extended warranty
Refusing arse because you have to get up early for work
Not hooking up with a co-worker because they’re a co-worker
Switching to the right lane and putting on your breaks to let someone faster by
Being agreeable to avoid confrontation
Not drinking a roadie because it’s against the law
Drinking some craft beer bullshite because you’re scared to order a domestic at a brewery.
Sending multiple emails or texts back and forth instead of picking up the phone.
Not answering your phone to have an adult discussion.


Men need to get back to being men. Younger generation, listen up.

This is actually the law. Unlike your spelling.

For me, has always lead to advancement and/or raises. If that is Beta so be it.

Yea, "that's not my job" is totally alpha. Even more so if you say it with a lisp.

I drink because I like it better, not because I am scared. Guess I am good.
