"Alpha status, as it is being sold, is a charade in which one
participates in the hopes of achieving respect within one’s social
sphere, including, of course, that of its female members, which — at
least according to the intermediaries — either find alpha males
irresistible, or at the very least are wired to make themselves sexually
available to them at a moment’s notice."

Animal behaviour is complex and interesting, and doesn't necessarily
support oversimplfied marketing nonsense loosely based on the terminology.

Share and enjoy,
