To my knowledge, the idea of an alpha wolf mistreating the members of his pack simply isn’t true. Every wolf has a job and is committed to their role. It’s usually cycles of social stability and brief mutiny.[/quote]
You think he was describing himself or was he thinking about a guy that he knows?

LOL hopefully the latter. No one with good sense would ever say this within the context of the former in person because they know how stupid it sounds (and is).
LOL @ beta and alpha terminology. I bet that 9 out of 10 people who use those terms are seeing themself as alphas
and that they use those terms too compensate for a low-self esteem, small dick syndrom etc.

Well I dont classify myself as either, but I guess most people would classify me as a beta.
I can live with that.

FACEPALM but I’ll give it a shot anyway!
Now how does a guy like that fair in average european society? Not too well, Shunned, and looked down upon for being an insensitive gargoyle.

How so? Last time I checked, he’s an accomplished entrepreneur with celebrity status. [/quote]
entreprenuer point is moot
celebrity status huh? I thought europeans just don’t care about this stuff?
ohhh, worldwide cedlebrity status by a small percentage of the globe, oh yes I see now…
[/quote]
Hm?[/quote]
I don’t fully understand either. I think he is making a point against Claudan who said that Europeans don’t care about all that size and strength stuff, and yet many strongmen and olympic athletes achieve celebrity status in their respective countries.[/quote]
THANK YOU!!! Glad someone can connect the dots around here!
And define celebrity status. Would the AVERAGE person (not the ones attending the strongman competitions) in their respective country be in AWE of them?

Well, when it comes to how Apha he is, it is certainly better to be a superstar in a small niche than to be mediocre in everything you do.
Both in terms of what a man might view as “alpha” and when it comes to the gina tingles.

But if he’s doing the same job as the other people he’s a shitty asss Alpha.
Shouldn’t he be the president of a mountain or chief librarian of punching in the face?
