Where’s the RTM male or Gold Master male

[-] [email protected] 12 points 4 hours ago

Does anyone read into this bollocks?

May as well measure my head.

Remember that four letter thing that was who you were? Like I for intelligence etc. This kind of crap have always existed, like horoscopes!

[-] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago

It's just a listicle for the alt right male. No different than the witch Disney princess are you, or the Myers Briggs crap.

At this point I would be unsurprised if it was all LLMs just pumping them out.

Seriously? Not a single Brave New world reference??!!??

Alpha children wear grey. They work much harder than we do, because they're so frightfully clever. I'm really awfully glad I'm a Beta, because I don't work so hard. And then we are much better than the Gammas and Deltas. Gammas are stupid. They all wear green, and Delta children wear khaki. Oh no, I don't want to play with Delta children. And Epsilons are still worse.”

alphas are shitty spy movie villains, betas are school jocks, deltas are average joes, gammas are Kurt Cobain, omegas are school nerds, sigmas are the 90s school troublemaker

They'd all look a lot better if they smiled more

They look like a reunion of Jordan Peterson's unfuckable family tree.

This alpha sigma omega bs is just astrology for men

[-] [email protected] 15 points 7 hours ago

/ the new Meyers-Briggs Personality Test. It's literally an ego toy, something you use to enhance the narrative that you tell yourself about yourself.

MBPT is the corporate astrology

So what is OCEAN? Bare-eye astronomy?

[-] [email protected] 2 points 4 hours ago

Well, Star Ocean is a decent JRPG series

Looks like all you have to do to be an alpha is grow facial hair and wear a suit.

This image looks like some shitty alternate universe version of Doctor Who regenerations.

What a load of BS.

From the thread, for the morbidly curious:

Alpha males are assertive and dominant. They often take charge in social settings, have high social status, and are charismatic leaders. They're the center of attention, like a CEO who can effortlessly command a room.

Examples of alpha males in movies include King Leonidas, Captain America, and Thomas Shelby. These characters are strong leaders, exhibit courage, and inspire those around them, often fighting for principles or causes bigger than themselves.

Beta males are less dominant and more agreeable and cooperative. They play a passive role in social hierarchies and crave forming relationships. A supportive colleague who willingly takes on a secondary role is a typical beta male.

Characters like Ron Weasley, Samwise Gamgee, and Bruce Banner are beta males who excel in supportive roles.

Delta males often go unnoticed in social settings. They are neither dominant nor submissive and are fairly average in social interactions. Their adaptability makes them reliable, but they rarely lead.

An individual who follows instructions well but isn't a natural leader represents a Delta male. Harry Potter, Marty McFly, and Frodo Baggins are Delta males who reluctantly take on leadership roles when needed.

Gamma males are contrarians, often rejecting or challenging social norms. Their independent thinking sometimes makes them outsiders. A rebellious artist who struggles socially but is intelligent in other ways encapsulates this type.

Tony Stark, Jack Sparrow, and Han Solo are gamma males who challenge social expectations. They are highly independent, intelligent, and a bit rebellious, making them stand out.

Omega males are at the bottom of the social hierarchy and often lack social skills. They are typically introverted and may not lack self-confidence but are generally unpopular. They are often focused on specific interests, like a nerd who prefers solitude in his hobbies.

Peter Parker, Newt Scamander, and Walter Mitty are Omega males who may struggle with social interactions but are capable of extraordinary things when focused on their passions.

Sigma males reject traditional social hierarchies and value their independence and self-reliance. They share charismatic traits with Alphas but operate outside conventional norms. A lone wolf who doesn't seek validation from others embodies this archetype.

Bruce Wayne, James Bond, and John Wick are Sigma males who operate outside traditional hierarchies. They are charismatic, self-reliant, and work alone, unfettered by societal expectations.

(He then goes on to plug several books about how to attract women.)

Just make sure you get consent first.

[-] [email protected] 13 points 8 hours ago

Bruce banner is not a gamma male? This is bullshit.

Omega males are at the bottom of the social hierarchy and often lack social skills.

So they even changed the definition of betas. While the "originial culture" was a toxic cesspool, this repackaged corporate knockoff has no fucking clue about the origins of this shit.
Take the normies off the fucking internet.

So... horoscopes for the socially maladjusted

[-] [email protected] 20 points 9 hours ago

Nope, right wing bullshit repackaged to be attractive to young men, who want sex. Basically the idea is to naturalize hierachy in male groups, while at the same time isolating them socialy. When you try to dominate others, they usually do not like that and lets be clear most guys want to be the dominant kind in that kind of system. The funny part being that women also usually do not like it. There is a reason half the influencers in these sort of communities end up having to pay for women or just rape.

[-] [email protected] 21 points 11 hours ago

Well, I would have expected Bruce Banner of all people to be a Gamma male...

[-] [email protected] 13 points 11 hours ago* (last edited 11 hours ago)

Thanks. I'm no longer morbidly curious; just morbid.

I recommend he takes those books about attracting women, and beats himself over the head with them until he stops talking nonsense. Curious there's no examples of actual real humans.

Elon Musk took one look at Sigma Male and went "Yes, I am going to model my entire aesthetic after that guy" and ended up looking like the biggest dork in the universe.
