'Alpha' males are usually men wiht inferiority complexes, low self esteem, and or a perpetual feeling of demasculinization.
The whole 'macho' 'tough guy' is usually just an act and only acted out in the presence of those he has determined weaker than him
To cowardly to stand up to a real confrontation.

@Groofydorkgerdo you know what I think the terms beta and alpha are pretty vague. Because it means this to one person then it means that to another person. Because by the definition you put, that is not what I have in mind.

@AkAtSUki It's the only definition there is..At less when it comes to humans.
That sort of thing I'd needed in the wild, survive of the fittest and all that.
Hunting, protection, authority over a group to keep things good, those are needed in the wild.
But with humanity, in well developed counties,
Things like hunger, predetor attacks, other predetory animals moving in, ... that havs mostly eliminated in humanity civilized areas.
The whole 'alpha, and 'beta' thing is just a reason for the weak and cowardly to to pretend to be strong and courageous and the expense of those weaker than them.

@Groofydorkgerdo the so called "alpha" you're describing sounds more like a narcissist. Which is a toxic person.

@AkAtSUki Aplhas are narcissists.
In word and deed, by intent and by very definition of the term...
