I am now dating a man who you probably consider “alpha”. He just makes sure stuff gets done. He is as liberal politically as I am, and doesnt see me as a second class citizen at all. But he views it as his job to make sure Im good. Im safe. Im taken care of. Same with my kids, his kids, his parents and younger siblings, etc. He does things for me that I could do myself. He makes my life easier. To use the tik tok parlance that “alpha male” comes from, I am a passenger princess. He holds doors and carries heavy things and pushes the cart in the grocery store. I can go out with him without a purse and be fine (lack of makeup for a touchup aside) because he can take care of whatever I need. He is the head of the household and takes that responsibility very seriously. And he absolutely dominates me in bed, in a very consensual, safe manner.
10/10, highly recommend men who are “men”.

It's not a dirty word, it's just the popularization of the WORD (recently) is often paired with a definition that is extremely toxic, and not what an actual "alpha" would be. Real alpha males don't call themselves alphas. They just, are. In general, any man that tries to call himself that is a red piller type that thinks controlling or breaking down women is "alpha".
You’re right.
And it was very obvious— super obvious to the point that only a total idiot would miss it—that the kind of man you refer to is the kind of man OP is asking about.
Yet, the DCUM replies poured in missing the point.
I'm confused, are you saying OP wants a red piller? Those are a dime a dozen lol.
And that’s not at all what OP appears to be seeking, but your are not smart to follow multiple posts on this. Should stick to Reddit.
