there are certainly outliers, but typically the same traits gain higher sexual value pretty much across the board

No Such Thing As Alpha Males by Ebbandflow


This is extremely funny coming from a guy who thinks there are more than 2 genders.

alpha has no political designation


His primary gripe seems to be looking at as an all-or-nothing thing

Of course not all conservatives are alphas. And of course not all liberals are betas.

But that's an entirely different discussion vs whether such a thing exists at all.

with you and beings and you are simply choosing which qualities you like in a man and calling it alpha male.
It actually has pretty much zero to do with the qualities I might like in a man.

If what I liked in terms of being a man was a demonstrated failure in terms of attracting people into your circle, men and women alike, then what I liked would NOT be alpha.

Bill Clinton was alpha as frick. Newt even said that any room Bill was in was controlled by bill. This has nothing to do with what I may personally like.

I can summarize for you and save you the time.

Ebb redefined the idea that when people say "alpha" they mean in the strict sense like when talking about an alpha wolf.

Then. He argued against the notion that such a thing exists in the human kingdom.

Then. he discounted the reality that the term DOES have meaning outside of such an absurdly narrow construct.

SlowFlo basically had to have his boot surgically removed from Ebb's arse. But, I think Ebb liked it.

Yes there is.

I worked in a bar for 7 years.

There are

Alphas
Betas
Cucks

In that order. It's very real.

Alphas went home with the hotties.

Betas stayed till last call and hoped to bring someone home, very rarely it was the chick they went there to meet (no coming together) and we're relegated to the friend zone while the alpha took her home to bang.

The cucks went home alone always.

Well I guess this thread isn't for you then. I started it to address a comment that I see spotted on this board all the time. At least once a day someone admirably calls him an Alpha. I see a narcissist who was handed everything and is not very capable.

Who voted for trump strictly because of this “alpha male” bull shite you are melting about?


There are more reasons than that of course. There are tons of fallacious reasons why people thought he would be a good leader. You thought it was a good deal maker, he said he was good at running things, you thought he was an admirable billionaire Alpha. There are more reasons but I am just addressing one of them and I think that's acceptable

you know the infamous Hollywood Access tape? that was Trump talking up being alhpa. that ugly, fat, and orange guy has women wanting to frick him at all times, so badly they'll let him do anything to them


It's funny that's what you got out of it. I heard a douchebag narcissist with acceptance issues trying to make himself sound cool.

again, the two concepts (Douchebag narcissist and alpha male) are not mutually exclusive

why do you think they are?

yeah and the examples of "irony" in the allanis morisette song "Ironic" aren't actually irony

sometimes social connotations aren't the same as the definitions in academic literature. that's not a major revelation

guess what else? when people say "cuck", they most often don't actually mean a man who watches his wife frick another guy

when people post "that's my fetish" memes, they're not actually referencing an actual fetish

do i need to go on or do you understand?


Don't let your arrogance get in the way of your intelligence. I already understand all of that but for the last two years I see at least a few threads a week in which someone on this board decides to make a post, boasting about how alpha the right-wing is and how beta the left-wing is.

I'm directing my statement towards the people who don't seem to understand that isn't reality. If it doesn't apply to you or people like me that actually understand the difference then just don't worry about it. Most Trump supporters are not very bright and don't understand that their connotation has no basis in reality.

Do I need to explain any further and? You see how condescending that sounds?

who the frick doesn't agree with this?


Again, you're clearly being selective in your memory. Plenty of people on this board that believe Alphas are right-wing people would not agree with this statement.

you're wrong


There are considerable amount of posts no subject, made yearly. Maybe you'll think of me next time you see one.

Well I disagree. I see a person that feels like he has to make his image sound better than it is at any given time and can't take any criticism before melting down into an Angry Ball of tweets. I'm sorry this is so hard for you.
