T or F? Alpha males are fearless trailblazers who love to be in control while beta males are kind, gentle souls who prioritize personal connections?

Would you eat a caviar dinner if there were dead insects inside your food? People chase the caviar but do not chase the sanitary food, then when they find insects in their caviar it's too late to get oatmeal that is sanitary and clean cause it's already been bought by somebody else. This is why the people with the best partners were usually trained in moral lessons at an age where they are too young to think for themselves and make their own conclusions about what they want.

In my years as a firefighter most men and women tend to be alphas.
However we may seem fearless, it isn't necessarily so.
We will take calculated risks, we rely on our training, equipment, each other as well as or expertise developed over the years.
We all want to go home.
For me it's not a love of being in control, its being in control of your situation and surroundings.
That comes back to training and experience.
Yes there are always unknowns, but it is a risk we are willing to take for someone we do not know.
My other job on the racetrack is mostly the alphas of the alphas.
It's not for everyone being in close proximity to 20 to 70 race cars with speeds well into the 100s and much higher.
We are one of the few safety teams that will work on a hot track.
We are highly regarded across the country and many tracks model themselves after us.
Again trust in each other and in our training.

Hey Coach. I don't often give much thought to this subject, but on this occasion:-

I'm gentle to a tee. I don't have to be in control.. BUT when I encounter another geezer who decides he might try his luck by pushing me around, I literally hope he throws a punch with it so I can swiftly knock him out

Apart from the mentally deranged (some would say) aspect of that, which bracket does that put me in?

[DishLady]

F... I've seen so-called "beta males" be extremely toxic in the quest to "dominate" others and feel a bit more empowered in their lives by bashing others... I've also seen so-called "alpha males" burnt out and broken over a bad relationship, which trips them up at work and in life... Both can be really intense. I'm not a fan of either label.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I am tired of reading these terms…

[electromagnetic]

Coach, I thought we were past the Alpha questions.

[coachTanthony]

My most popular questions... sorry lol

[Chazmatazz269]

The entire premise is false on the face of it. When you begin from a fallacy, you can’t end up at the truth. Ell oh ell!

[coachTanthony]

So they are not trailblazers? lol

[DrPepper12]

New Rule: if you post alpha beta questions you must repeat the Greek alphabet backwards while standing on one leg rubbing tummy clockwise and patting top of head.

[coachTanthony]

lol.

[RiseofArtemis]

There is no Alpha or Beta males. Only Toxic or Good.

You either have good traits in you which make you a well rounded and liked person or you have bad traits which make you unlikeable by everyone.

[worldscolide]

Good God absolutely false. A masculine man stands next to his partner, and his family, he provides and protects his family, he leads his family. He is also kind and compassionate to his family.

What you describe is a douchebag.

[TheRealPepperPotts]

What is the deal with the Alpha male questions?

[sheenagwapa]

i think if you are too harsh or too gentle that is a turn off

[CriticalCatDad]

Both are told to serve women for the rest of their lives. 🤷🏻‍♂️

[RingOfFire]

Don't know but I can tell you who's going to win that arm wrestling match.

[slatyb]

Name one "Alpha" male. A CEO? An elite athlete? A highly rated physician or attorney? A software developer who is also a competitive amateur athlete? A man who runs an NGO?

[Anonymous]

Someone cue Revenge of the Nerds... Stan can do his Mr. Touchdown dance and Oger can show off his belching skills. Real men right there buddy.😎

[Nikki1989]

Neither actually exist, so there is no answer to this.

[Siri137]

If this is how you define the terms, then I'd rather be with a beta.

[Pohjolan]

If we go by the wolf analogy then betas are the middle tier leaders. Managers, coaches, NCO:s, etc.

[IslaTheWitch]

nope, both don't exist

[Hispanic-Cool-Guy]

This alpha and beta male ish is getting tiresome already. Move on.

[RedInnocent69]

No necessarily. Betas can be awkward introverts who don’t exactly prioritize social connections.

[LaurenM1997]

Fuck not this shit again.

[coachTanthony]

watch your language young lady

[LaurenM1997]

😂😂😂

[TommyMountainFigure]

lolol @ you two

[Wiredone]

Not the alpha males again. Geeeez coach

[AVirgoMan]

Alfa > Beta
