This thread is just ********.
For starters, I've always found the idea of labeling men as either "Alpha" or "Beta" to be inherently flawed. How can you possibly limit the characteristics of men to two categories, when there are millions of us out there and when we are all so different? Why do we place these labels on men when they are not an accurate representation of who those individuals are?
The problem with this Alpha and Beta nonsense is that all it serves to do is assign a very limited identity to a particular person. In the case of this thread's discussion, Alpha's are supposedly these extremely confident womanizers, and Beta's are weak, spineless cowards. What's the in-between? What about an Alpha who can't get women? What about a beta who does fairly well with the ladies? What about a man who doesn't belong in either of these categories? A man who is not overly confident, but nor does he lack confidence. A man who can't get the girls, but has absolutely no problem speaking to them or expressing interest. A man who enjoys helping people, but at the same time never bends over backwards nor ever allows anyone to stand in their way. Are they Alpha or a Beta? By this thread's definition of the terms, they'd be neither.
As for White Knight's; I'd like to think anyone who comes to another's aid is worthy of praise.
