alpha males

[McGiver]

I don't like alpha men.

i would be curious to see what others think an alpha male is.

i bet there are differences of opinions.  many may think that i am an alpha male, but i am not.  i am far from being an alpha male.  unless one would consider an alpha male as someone who has strong opinions.


i have my own thoughts on what an alpha male is, i will share them shortly.  what are your thoughts. 
what is an alpha male?

[Mr Smith]

Someone that will never have any trouble getting women he wants.

every male who puts their mind to it.

[QuirkyCarla]

Pretty much what hale_bopp said, but I also associate them with being macho and somehow getting lots of women despite being an ass.

Wrong. Look at a pack of lions.

[Nomaken]

Not me.

[Litigious]

An alpha male is someone who has total self confidence, and thus people, at least NTs, are instinctively looking up to him, both men and women. That way he gets most women he wants. It's primitive and disgusting and always reminds me of lynch mobs and the worst and lowest human instincts.

i would agree with most of this, but with a few additions.

i also think that several men are pseudo alpha males.  an act.  but annoying to the degree that they are great actors, and try too hard to dominate without real leadership abilities.
might makes right, aggressive, bullying types.

and more.

[Litigious]

I agree to your additions. The poser alphas are even more annoying.

[McGiver]

the type that takes off their sunglasses the second things do not go their way and challenge you to fist to cuffs.
the drunks who have to dominate every social occasion and regale you with their stories about whatever boring theing they have done in their life.
poseurs.

My brother had such a jerk in his class in elementary. He lived very near us and always came and bragged about how much he fucked, how much he drank, how much fights he was into etc. He always sneaked beer and whisky from me, since I'm five years older and he couldn't buy what he wanted in the liquor stores. He was so stupid that he couldn't make the theory test for his driving license until he was 24 (the age limit is 18 in Sweden). The most annoying thing, however, was that this pathetic jerk actually got a lot of beautiful girls to fuck, among others the girl who won the county beauty contest...

  Nobody would put Alpha male and me in the same sentence!   I'm not the dominator/controlling type!

confidence lit.

no matter how they protest to the contrary, women find a confident man to be attractive.
or
maybe they just want to reduce him to a sniveling little man.

i haven't quite figured that out yet, but i know that confidence gets a man laid.

My theory is that women, if not just looking for cock, want:

1) a man to worship, i.e., a handsome, confident and rich man.

2) if they cannot get 1), they're looking for a pathetic low life loser, that they can have worshipping them.

So they either want a man as a trophy or a servant. That's why "ordinary", nice guys usually have a relatively hard time getting women. They don't fit in either cathegory.
