Beta male can only score between 10-14 on a long question, whereas the illustrious alpha male consistently hits 15+.

Leader of the alpha males is commonly reverred to be Senior Wrangler
No one in real life above the age of 23 actually gives a **** about this- I've never heard anyone even say the word "beta" - it makes me cringe just thinking about it.*

Alpha males are the ladies men. Confident, self-assured and assertive types (the guys that treat girls badly and girls still flock to them like flies to ****). Beta males are quiet, shy and insecure - the guys that try to make everyone happy - the type of guy that does a girl's homework and lets her walk all over him and the type of guy who gets friend zoned.

It matters to the werewolves in Twilight. But, as I am thankfully not Bella Swan, I don't care.

Either all of you are lying or you've been through this shallow stage and have matured. I mean come on...ladies do you really like a guy that constantly agrees with everything to say and has no strong opinions? A guy you can push about?

:rolleyes:

I don't believe in it
Any man who brings up alpha/beta males into a conversation is not someone I care to date.
prefer a gamma male myself

Elaborate...:P
By your definition I think everyone has some combination of both traits, like introversion and extraversion.
It's not so black and white, I don't think you can classify a guy easily into either, except for extremes.
Alpha and beta are such stupid terms...

But I get what you mean.
