It makes guys feel good about themselves to define Alpha in their own image (leader of men, family provider, etc.), but they only get frustrated and conflicted when they see women gravitate towards the douchey-est of guys and his Alpha energy. Then they qualify the women attracted to them as “low quality” to fit with their personal Alpha narrative.

Alpha is elemental. It’s like fire; you can use it to cook your food and keep you warm or you can use it to burn your neighbor’s house down. Alpha will always defy your personal attempts to define it. There are Alpha behaviors, cues and outward manifestations to be sure, but the death row inmate is equally as Alpha as the upstanding businessman who takes care of his responsibilities.

Sex is nice. Sex with beautiful women is better. But this site is about more than that. I’ve come to the perspective that men who base their lives on chasing more and hotter pussy demonstrate a neediness. I’d rather help them become more comfortable and confident with themselves, develop great lives for themselves, and become happier… women are part of the equation, but not the entire equation.

I personally think PUA misses the boat in terms of what is actually effective and what builds a life of sexual abundance. PUA teaches you how to chase pussy… but PUA doesn’t teach you how to develop yourself in a man that draws women towards you.

A key point he makes is *how attractive* those holes are. Not all holes are created equal.

A man who has brought home 100 generic bar girls (5-7s), while doing better than chubby chasers, is STILL not really an alpha by the chateau’s scale.

The key point is that all of the “alpha traits” prevalent in other PUA communities are ONLY a means to an end.

To that extent, I agree with you that te mainstream-ified “alpha” IS wrong….and I like your piece I that extent

…but tell me, what is the purpose, the end-result, if you will, for having this website in the first place? In the end of day we want to attract hotter women, and that aligns perfectly with Roissy’s defn.

I wasn’t aware of that post. I do find the reduction of alphaness to merely how much attention and attraction you get from women to be pretty shallow and meaningless. There are more important and fulfilling things in life than sticking your dick in 100 holes.

Are you confused about your sociosexual rank?

The argument is that your alphaness is defined by the women you attract, because really, that’s all that matters – who cares if you run a company if you can’t mate with anyone desirable? As an aside, Alpha males today can thwart the baby problem by birth control, but they still lay with many attractive women, as alphas have for millennia.

I can see why youd want to create a chicken-and-egg argument to disagree, but that’s straw man at best.

You can still attract women as a beta. Just not any women that an alpha would want for more than a night lol!!
