It doesn't matter if you are talking wolves, primates or humans an Alpha is never a bully and he doesn't do what he wants when he wants. He does what is in the best interest of the pack/group. A successful Alpha is actually laid back and calm but assertive and willing to stand between his pack and any threat. What women mean when they say they want an Alpha is that feeling of being looked after, protected, not very modern I know but it is an instinct that is hard to ignore. Also Alphas are always gentle attentive parents, all Alphas have plenty of time and patience for their young, without fail. Alphas don't look for conflict and they are not self involved. Charlie Sheen is sooo not an Alpha, poser maybe but not an Alpha. David and Ashton don't really fit the bill either. Clooney is the closest but he has no interest in family and what is a pack leader without a pack.Pontificatorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09596161125648273830noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049233740909140589.post-55725761894701984282012-01-09T16:33:56.440-08:002012-01-09T16:33:56.440-08:00I love alpha males, and just did a post on my site...I love alpha males, and just did a post on my site, http://sexbullshit.com/2012/01/09/looking-for-alpha-males/..

I ...You're so funny (shakes head and chuckles). I recently wrote a book about werewolves (strange I know, but work with me) and researched *a lot* into the whole alpha/animal dominance thing. There's actually only four classes in a wolf pack - alphas, betas, subordinates, and omegas. You might not see yourself as an alpha, but you don't sound like an omega either.<br /><br />You know who you remind me of (in a more socially adept way)? Leonard from The Big Bang Theory. He's smart, funny, sweet, and cute, yet he's not very confident. For whatever reason, he doesn't see how awesome he is. It takes him forever to get together with Penny, his hot neighbor. But he does get with her. Leonard might not be an alpha, but he could be a beta.<br /><br />Some women actually don't want alphas. Some women want betas while they get to be the dominant bad-ass person in the relationship. Betas are the wolves who are *almost* as bad-ass as alphas, except when they challenge alphas they lose. That's the reason they're betas. Still, betas are better than everyone else in the pack. And when an alpha is off duty, the beta takes charge. It's not a bad place to be. ;-)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05634264247783669380noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049233740909140589.post-34176632408540382612011-12-08T15:33:42.242-08:002011-12-08T15:33:42.242-08:00Hey Phil,

They didn't coin that phrase about nice guys for nothing.<br /><br />Men and women both respond to confidence, but faking it when you don't necessarily have a lot of it at the time is easier said than done.<br /><br />I really hate the "monday morning quarterbacking" session that inevitably follows a date gone awry! would shoulda and coulda...sounds like me after many a college frat party.John Garretthttp://hypertransitory.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9049233740909140589.post-13819311469873576752011-12-07T21:10:15.881-08:002011-12-07T21:10:15.881-08:00So going by your list, I guess that makes my husba...So going by your list, I guess that makes my husband husband an "Alpha Male" even though he dresses like a Boardwalk Hobo :PJennyhttp://oh.so-very.menoreply@blogger.com
