[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In the age of Trump, the word alpha has been turned upside down. It used to mean a stoic masculinity, a leader, someone who was respectful but in charge. Now, the doofuses on that other thread consider alpha like Trump, someone who insults people, weeks revenge on perceived enemies, brags about assaulting women and mocks the weak and handicap. That's why a man who has the absolute confidence to buy an ex boyfriend a drink is weak but someone who causes a scene and makes the situation unbearable and uncomfortable is "total alpha" The irony is that women don't find the Trump types either alpha or attractive[/quote] That idea of “alpha” has been around long before Trump. I remember reading about it online 20+ years ago. It was basically taken by men who lacked social and relationship skills to explain why they struggled with females. Instead of looking at themselves or recognizing that maybe that particular hot female they’d been lusting after just wasn’t interested and it’s nothing personal, it was easier to come up with the stereotype that women only want “alphas”, who are tall, muscular, rich, a-holes, etc. Because it’s easier to blame external factors (“women only like a-holes but I’m a nice guy and refuse to stoop to their level!”) rather than look at yourself and recognize maybe most women don’t want a guy who washes his hair once a week, watches anime all day, and does weird things around her family/friends. And it’s a lot easier to blame women for, say, only wanting tall men since they can’t grow taller, but facing the fact that they have poor leadership skills or can’t handle challenges or lack social skills is a lot more difficult.
