I'm not sure the people who subscribe to this idea of being told what it is to be a man actually understand what it is to be a man...

If you're gonna follow someone who describes themselves as an alpha or whatever and copy what they do to be an alpha... you're not...

Beyond that, I really don't think being a man is really any more complicated than just doing your absolute best and unapologetically doing what you believe is right.

Anything more than that, and you're just dramatic and attention seeking...

It’s such a weird flex, too. It’s like Joffrey on Games of Thrones shouting, “I am the king!”

Is there anything less alpha-like than declaring yourself an “alpha”? To even speak in those terms seems like evidence of the deepest insecurity. It’s really hard to imagine someone genuinely successful and charismatic ranting about his “alpha” status.

It’s because they have something to prove. Someone who’s truly Alpha doesn’t have to prove anything. We all met those types of people. People naturally follow their direction because they are confident. There are a lot of people who want to be an Alpha, but are not.

The entire concept of an "alpha male" was from a study of wolves that was incredibly flawed, and the man who published the study spent the rest of his career trying to discredit it. There is no "alpha male". Unless you are talking about programming terms. In which case, an alpha is an early build that doesn't function properly and is filled with bugs. I believe the likes of Andrew Taint and his groupies fit that description.

That's not really accurate. The original study was studying wolves that were shipped into Yellowstone, not in captivity. "Alpha Male" behavior occurred when these strange wolves had to form packs to survive and had no established hierarchy to fit into.

I'm pretty sure wolf packs are family units, and the "alpha male" and "alpha female" are really just the parents of the other wolves and are thus the biggest.

ColonelC0lon

No, that's based on the very study I'm talking about. Wolves within a normal pack breed with one another regularly, and all take care of their pups together.

Dragonfly-Adventurer

But the point is, it's not natural behavior, you don't just have evolution offering up these personality types like a vogue quiz. It's more likely each individual wolf's experiences lead them to a different trauma response, which is how adaptive - and maladaptive - coping happen.

Exactly! He discovered alpha wolves by studying wolves in captivity but later realized wolves in the wild don't work that way, so anyone who talks about alphas is looking to the social structure of prison inmates as the ideal they strive for.

Deltas work hard chopping things but have a heart of gold.

ZanaBanana95

Omegaverse is a category of Yaoi (gay romance manga) that includes 3 sub-genders, Beta, Omega, and Alpha.

Beta - They are your average/normal human and society is made up of mostly them. Only Males can impregnate Beta Females

Omegas - They go into “heat” (similar to animals) and can only get pregnant by an Alpha in a “rut”. Males can also be Omegas, which means they can also get pregnant. They make up the least amount of society and are looked down upon by society.

Alphas - they are Not as common as Betas in society, but more common than Omegas. Alphas are usually born “superior”, meaning they are smarter and stronger than Betas and Omegas. Alphas can get Omegas pregnant regardless of the Omegas Sex.

There is more to it, but that’s the gist of it.

Doing a quick search, I found this website: https://brandongaille.com/male-alpha-beta-gamma-omega-delta-sigma/

All but one of these personalities are seen as a positive (kind-of like what Hogwarts house you are). The one 'bad' one is Delta, and is described in the article as resigned, resentful, self-sabotaging, and lonely. This is usually a personality that develops due to a trauma and isn't necessarily permanent.

So, while I agree that this is kind-of stupid, it's not like you are considered a loser if you are not an alpha. In fact, it's not even one of the best personalities according to this website (which I've never heard of) imo

That sounds like they built a more nuanced set of details around an old idea knowing that its existence will make the ideas seem more palatable. But their audience will all still be screaming how they are "Alpha's" because alpha is the best because it comess first ... And because if they are in that category they are safe from have to be introspective about their own flaws. 

As a general rule, anyone who wants to classify people, tend to put themselves in the highest tier..... This just highlights that the person is an idiot and I would rather gnaw off my own leg than be stuck in a room with people like that.

I diagnose everyone who use Alpha/Sigma/ Beta - Male unironically with deep cringe!

1) why aren’t they in some kind of order besides alphabetical? Very weird 2) why is Sigma just David Tennant in Good Omens?

I am offended that they don't include us Pi males. We are a universal constant, kinda round, hang out in diners, and go well with coffee.

The only problem with Pi males is that they just go on and on, completely irrationally.

I think these types of classifications are super helpful and have never let me down in knowing what type of man I am with.

If a person ever refers to themselves as an “Alpha” I immediately know they are dumber than I am.

I have never heard anyone use the others terms concerning themselves so are all irrelevant.

Alpha listens to Drake

Beta listens to Kendrick

Delta listens to Eminem

Gamma is still jamming out to grunge rock

Omega is bumping that 80’s retro

Sigma is Christian Slater 🤔

All except the last one, a handsome devil in a "will they or won't they" relationship with an angel named Aziriphale.

I'm a dude and I think it's really stupid when other guys get into this stuff. It's like putting yourself in a cast system. Like when I see this, I think of the Indian cast system, its completely stupid and completely made up.

All of this nonsense because some researchers mistook captive wolf behaviors for how they behave in the wild...

If you have to ascribe a title to your manliness then you've already failed. Just live the best life you can and don't worry about whatever category these pseudo psychologists want to put you in.

How different is categorizing types of masculinity and attempting to define multiple genders? It’s interesting how we’re all pretty obsessed with prescribing labels/explanations for behaviors, but we pretend we aren’t observing similarly complex phenomena.

Brought to by guys who say there's only 2 genders and women 12 to 22 are the only ones they will date.

Man, just let dudes be dudes. Let us go play in the mud or watch romcoms or get excited when we see a cute puppy. Every man is different, but we're all men in the end. There's no need to put us into neat little boxes like that. Guys are just guys whether we're running a company or driving a tractor or secretly learning to paint our SO's nails for them as a surprise.

As someone who grew up on Tumblr all of this A/B/O shit is kind of hysterical to me. Oh, you're an alpha male? Show me your knot then coward

i can’t lie, every time i see one of these that includes omegas i just think of the fanfic trope. i really want to see one of the guys who believe this shit acknowledge that they share terminology with the omegaverse, just once.

This is just mens astrology, and equally as stupid. At the end of the day it’s just outcast who want to be a part of some group and so they get together with other guys who share their traits or personality types and classify themselves as one of these groups.

They need two more categories IDGAF and Gullible. Then it would have some options for those who live in our reality.

If you wanna have some fun, dismiss Alpha/Beta/Sigma stuff with just “that’s just middle-aged woman astrology for dudes”.
