So you are a high value alpha male who has internalized TRP-principles and you spin plates. You don't wanna get into LTR just yet. Plates keep dropping as they always do and half of the time it happens because the girl has found someone new. You may think that "Who is this guy. Where did she find a more high value guy than me? How is that possible?". Occasionally it is revealed to you who the guy is (meet him, see him commenting in FB etc.). Pretty much every time this guy is a full blown beta male.
So what does this mean? Plate spinning TRP Alphas worst "enemy" is actually a beta male who is happy to give his commitment to a girl right away - Not another (trp) alpha male. When you spin plates there is a point where the girls desire for commitment overcomes the tingles she gets with you. When you are experienced with spinning plates and know your shit, this is one of the most likely reasons why she nexts you (in addition to frustration because you don't commit). Additionally, the older the woman is, the faster it happens and the stronger the desire for commitment is.
The positive thing is that she left you because of frustration and desire for commitment (which you didn't offer). This means that you can easily add her back to your roster later if you want if you kept your frame and let her drop (and I emphasize - you don't wanna resurrect a plate who dropped or got dropped because of mental issues/bad behaviour etc.). After couple of years of spinning plates, you don't have to do cold approach so much anymore because you can keep resurrecting old plates when you need to fill your roster (use the excel guys, after 1-2 years you can't remember everyone if you are successful). This is when spinning the plates starts to shift to real easy mode.
Disclaimer: Because you are TRP alpha male you shouldn't care or even think about who is this new dude she left you for but I prefer keeping these posts how the things and people work in reality - especially if you are still on the path becoming TRP Alpha. Indifference towards a dropping plate would be ideal ofc and something you would want to internalize. Personally, understanding this dynamic has helped me with getting more confident (because the reason girl left wasn't that I'm not high value enough)
IAMB4TMAN 5y ago
I think plate theory needs a refresh to incorporate how you can look for signals that the plate is about to break.. and you front run it & next her beforehand.
Warning: if you get this timing down correctly, it can turn the most normal girl fucking psycho, so be prepared. Also, this timing is the magic ingredient that when learned will leave a harem of alpha widows in your wake. This, in my opinion is the biggest difference in 'game' between RP Alphas & Dark Triads.
Zech4riah 5y ago
I agree, timing is really important.
On the other hand, we europeans and especially scandinavians don't have too much of a problem with "psycho girls". Girls here are really balanced and seem like "adults" most of the time because girls are grown to survive on their own.
DouglasPR 5y ago
So true, OP. I have this on/off plate that has dumped me twice, always for textbook beta bucks. She is post wall, a 7-8 in a good day and very good sex. By now she already understood that I won't commit, so when she finds a prospect she ghosts me. First time the guy bailed after three months and she came back for D. Second time she even told me before hand she was fishing for a recent divorcee, loaded and sexually frustraded guy. Lets see if this one lasts... I hope so, she is not a bad woman and the guy looks like he need some decent bj's and anal.
tchower 5y ago
One of the few threads on here where I see a lot of confusion and contradictions with red pill philosophy with beta and alpha. People are forgetting how terrible it is to be a beta bucks or beta in general compared to an alpha or Chad. Beta’s can do well in the LTR, but being used for your hard earned resources or being submissive to a woman will put you in the worst situation you could ever be in. It might even lead to very little sex from your wife or getting cucked. But still a lot of peps in here think that being a beta is high value.
TheLaughingRhino 5y ago
Your absolute worst enemy is ANYTHING or ANYONE who is a waste of your precious time.
You can make more money. Move to a new place. Change this or that. You can't get your time back.
If you are with a woman who wants to jump on a new dick, and leave you, then she's a waste of your time. Why sow effort into something already broken?
Is this person worth my time?
Is this situation worth my time?
Is this investment worth my time?
Once you make every person in your life a function of the value of time, every decision becomes incredibly easy to manage.
"Where are we going with this! I want a commitment!"
If it's not what you want, then it's now a waste of your time. Next her ( maybe gently if you wish) and move on. Your turn is over.
This all becomes a problem when you've COMMITTED to a woman. When you live together, get married or have kids or share finances. Now she's a SUNK COST. And while it's better to shed her sooner than later, many guys can't get to the point to do that.
If you have no commitment, who cares what she does or does not do ( as long as she doesn't disrespect you openly)
If you have a commitment, you've lost frame. There is nothing in it for you to commit. Nothing. It's why they want it and most men can live without it. You cannot commit and have abundance ( I don't give a shit what the Married Red Pillers say about this) Once you get into hairy shit like marriage and kids, see how easy it is to walk away. Once you've compromised your ability to walk for any reason, your frame is gone. Even a LTR is simply a progressive pathway for a woman to manipulate you into marriage/kids/living together/mixed finances/etc.
" Let there be nothing in your life, have no attachments, that you cannot walk out on in thirty seconds flat, if you spot the heat around the corner. "
TitusDorsus 5y ago
Funny how if a plate drops, a relationship ends or a ONS never contact you back it’s because of another alpha, a beta, feminism or society in general.
If you treat them like shit, it’s normal that they will leave you for someone who treats her better. You would do the same if a bitch doesn’t respect you.
Sometimes, it’s really your fault if it didn’t work out. If you lack social skills and emotional intelligence, it would be a good idea to start working on it. As long as you have boundaries and frame, you have nothing to lose being right and kind with people in general.

It happened twice to me, actually. But I see it more as a good mechanism to weed out weak women from my life.

I love beta males.
Someone has to take these women on dates. Someone has to give them nonsexual attention. Someone has to help pay her bills
redpillcad 5y ago
This smacks of a hypothesis not experience.
Yes plates drop. Deal with it.
Sometimes they drop for a beta faggot but if that's the case the woman is past her prime 99% of the time so no loss. And....every last one of these women will be dtf later if you hold frame and let her drop with no cares and feels.
They can marry and have kids and still will fuck the one who got away in the backseat of his car
HumanSockPuppet 5y ago
Indeed.
A woman's desire is a pendulum, forever swinging between provisioning and tingles. Any man of sufficient competence can provide provisioning, but only strong men can generate tingles.
A man's greatest enemy is not another alpha-behaving man, or another provisioning beta.
A man's greatest enem my is his own complacency.
When you become complacent, you stop seeking ways to improve and grow stronger. You stagnate. This is what robs you of your ability to generate effortless tingles.
Never surrender to laziness. Always pursue challenges to keep you strong.

I've met plenty of girls who attempt to get a head start on the Epiphany Phase in their early 20s, usually after a period of riding the CC or getting pumped and dumped by their dream Chad. Logically they know a Beta guy would be better long term, so they try to make it work. But being young, hot, and feelz-driven ultimately overcomes rationality and they never stay with these guys for long, or give them the level of sex and attention that Chad received.

100% this.
My gf of 7 years and I broke up recently as she is 30, wanted to get married, I declined, and now she needs to find her a BB.
She is seeing a couple other guys right now, but me and her are still fwb, and the guysare beta.
One time shortly before we split up, we were in bed and she basically said she had a fantasy about being married to this future husband of hers, but me and her having an affair.
All I'm saying is just stay safe out there Bros

Just fucked a girl I was in a LTR with for several months, we broke it off and I went none contact. She got into another LTR that lasted several months. They broke up about a week ago and we were fucking again the next day. Maintain frame and they WILL be back. 8 times out of 10 I would wager. Real shit.
markinsinz7 5y ago
I've seen tons if betas with cute girls man. Redpillers world is very small and many of the top 20% don't regularly spin plates. Point being most girls these days get the commitment they want quite easy.
Mangasbzo7 5y ago
This is because lots of women have beta bfs whilst secretly also having fun with an alpha behind his back.
One of girls I am seeing is doing exactly this. Girls know they wont get commitment from alpha, so they do both + just hide it.
redpillcad 5y ago
Very true. If one was never the AF side of equation, then would never know
BitsAndBobs304 5y ago
they also (those cute enough for long enough to be able to afford it) keep upgrading their bf until they get the flavor of bf provider they want (e.g. doctor, musician, freelancer from home, soldier, one that wants kids, one that will take on her kids from previous bfs, whatever)
MeToo2020 5y ago
That is because you can't see bad personality on the outside easily - the personality that forces them to settle for beta instead of "happily ever after" with their true love. Remember the "no dick into crazy" thing?

Yes, this is pretty much what i said.
Altho I strongle disagree with this:
I've seen a young woman drop for a beta faggot several times and in there is a lot of experienced guys who have similar experiences. Because you are EC I assume that you are experienced as well so it's surprising to see differing opinion on this.
PS. I'm an European so girls in here are not drawn towards value as much as American girls so that may explain something.
TheRedRand 5y ago
Sometimes the woman simply values being able to sustain a relationship rather than short-term sex, no matter her age or SMV. Even young women can appreciate being cared for as opposed to just used for cave-man type short-term gratification.

This was a headache to read. Why do we have to characterize everything as alpha or beta? A man is a man, nothing more. What do you define as commitment? I always see the implication that committing to a woman makes you a beta male. She wanted to be with him, not with you. Why are you so worried about being “nexted”? It’s like you’re showing concern that she didn’t want to be with you by even thinking about this post. Who knows, maybe you need to work on yourself more, and that’s why she didn’t want to stick around?

Zech4riah 5y ago
I don't see anything wrong with a list of hot women you have found out fun to be with and they are there just a phone call or one message away.

Yes the guy that stole your girl is of course a super-beta, i mean no one is more interesting than myself, so that has to be it.
No need for self reflection ever again!
​
You later meet the girl again divorced after 20 years with 3 kids. "I knew it, beta fag!"
Skyhawk_And_Skyhead 5y ago
There are two sides to hypergamy. Alpha fucks and Beta bucks. You cant ignore either side. Just as a woman will cheat on a beta with an alpha, she will get frustrated and leave an alpha if he wont commit. Read Preventive Medicine by rollo tomassi, it goes into great detail about this.
Thunderbird93 5y ago
We are sometimes too absolutist here on TRP. Do most women crave male domination? Definitely, but we can't ignore the occasional dominatrix who enjoys power
Rprtstnb 5y ago
Or maybe the guy was, besides commiting, just more interesting then the "alpha"?
Maybe a dude who looks goofy/not physically strong/not confident in pictures or in person, still pushes the right buttons when 1 on 1 with his girl?
​
monsieurhire2 5y ago
Beta doesn't mean he's a loser. Alpha doesn't make you a winner, either. Civilization is built by Betas. Alphas are like primal cavemen that women are attracted to because of millions of years of evol-psych programming. But it doesn't make them better men. Betas are programmed by culture to be civilized. That's why they are offering their commitment so easily. Women are attracted to the security and social status that the commitment bring. If the beta is providing, he's also bringing comfort and a way of life. Meanwhile, all the alpha is offering up is dick in the box and tingles.
Women with self-awareness understand this dynamic. They sow some wild oats with alphas, then settle down with a beta. The more assholish ones have an alphas kid, then settle down with a beta. Alphas often get sex on tap, but why would they commit when they have a roster? And why would women hang around to wind up alone and having to work to support themselves?
So, OP has a point. I think you are confusing beta with omega males.
Avertus 5y ago
I won't argue your point that civilization is built by Beta males, but the ongoing decline of Western civilization is a result of the increasing gynocentric control of society and shaming of masculinity. And if this trend continues, the Betas of the West will be replaced by a more masculine culture.
antariusz 5y ago
Women are attracted to high levels of beta traits.
Women are aroused by high levels of alpha traits.
That’s the difference.
Imalostman_ 5y ago
What's Omega males? This wasn't in the sidebar.
monsieurhire2 5y ago
Guys at the bottom of the sexual marketplace who face a lifetime of having to pay for sex while risking getting robbed by prostitutes too repulsed to fulfill their end of the bargain.
Think ugly guys who are also dumb and lazy, as well as have a victim-complex and a bad attitude, but who aren't actually congenitally disabled. They will never self-improve, and even if they did, their best efforts fizzle and produce little if any results, or rather, if they competed at their hardest, they would still fall far short of anything making them competitive.
However, most people aren't this hopeless. Many are trapped in mental prisons they can escape from. It's just too painful for them. They have a pain-avoidance mentality.

Zech4riah 5y ago
Just pasting the relevant part which you ignored (there is a little prerequisite/assumption hidden there which makes your comment pretty much irrelevant):
Rprtstnb 5y ago
I just believe the definition of alpha and beta is a slight too limited as far as
Alpha: The cavemen who no woman can resist. But doesn't commit. I've seen these dudes, I'm not like them.
<<--- what's here?
Beta: The provider who gets occasional sex as long as he provides. I've seen these dudes I'm not like them.
Omega: Absolute loser
So I say this, because when I look at my younger self I don't fit in these categories. I'm not big, I don't have money, I'm not ugly but I was not muscular at all. I managed to get a girl a "jock" was going after. Head bigger than me, muscular dude, popular in school. It was talk of the school day after. Then same with the next girlfriend, "stole" her from a hockey player who didn't care about giving her attention. And basically for the next 6 years, we meet up, we fuck, we do something fun, we fuck or go to sleep and fuck in the morning and I go home, to do it again 2-3 days later.
My current gf is a doctor, I make way less then her, I don't clean, I don't cook when she's there. I don't do laundry. I don't look like a quarterback.
So what gives?

RedHoodhandles 5y ago
I understand that you, me and every man needs to protect his ego. This is ego protection.
Also, you are mixing alpha/beta and SMV together. A plate could leave you for a higher SMV Alpha, a higer SMV Beta, a lower SMV Alpha or a lower SMV Beta. Four possibilities. But so what?
Does it really matter for whom she broke? Aside from your ego? So you can tell yourself "ahh what a schmock, he looks so soft" or "ooh what an idiot he gave commitment so easily while I fucked her proper in all her holes *hihi*'. And when she comes back 'Ohh sweet littlle bird... I told you so. Who's your daddy?'
It doesn't matter. She broke. She's gone. And no matter if she comes back a month or a year later, I'm not warming up old leftovers so I can 'chill' my plate management and be lazy. This is my kind of ego protection. She's dead to me. After me, the flood.
I'm not judging you. Have fun with that. It's just not my... taste.
Zech4riah 5y ago
Well, I don't judge you either but I'm not sure if you are being practical with your ego protection method. I do a lot of things in the hard way but I'm definitely welcoming back past quality plates which I had fun with but they temporarily nexted me for a guy who gave commitment.
But yeah, we all have our styles yours just needs more work in this aspect.

I’ve had plates I couldn’t get rid of. They would start demanding commitment and I’d drop them only to return for sex. Always fun when they go on a date with some guy that took them to dinner and then call you afterwards because they want to fuck. Hold frame and let them go only to have the boomerang put them back in your bed.
Harry_Wangs 5y ago
The Alpha/Beta characterization is often too simplistic.
Women are not just looking for the most masculine guy with the strongest possible frame...it’s like saying we are only looking for the hottest girl regardless of personality or character or intelligence.
Doesn’t have to be a Beta or someone more Alpha...it might just be someone who is a better fit. Maybe they are both musicians, both artists, both joined the same social circle.
No need to rationalize too much why a plate dropped...just let it drop and move on.
anymouse22334455 5y ago
Plates dropping for a beta is actually doing you a favor. Plate spinning is all temporary, you bang em out and when they get clingy pass them off to a beta that will pay for it and execute her long term provisioning plan. Find another plate and adopt the abundance mentality. I love betas that are willing to take up seconds when I'm done, that way these women don't cling on me. All the fun and none of the mess man.
darkstar1031 5y ago

This doesn't make sense to me. Isn't confident behavior supposed to be independent of smv? In the guide to accepting yourself in the sidebar, are we not taught to believe we are enough, regardless? The low smv grinch should be just as content with himself as the high smv Chad.

THE_StrongBoy 5y ago
Fundamentally disagree with this post. The trp alpha has no enemies when it comes to women leaving him because they will inevitably all leave you at one point or another. There are enough women that he doesn’t ever worry about one leaving - that’s part of what makes him a true alpha. The only enemy of the alpha is himself. Possibly the ugly female who he rejects filing a false rape claim is another beat to be wary of
Selfishaltruist181 5y ago
I think it's more like everyone is the enermy or very least a combatant. It's why the first rule of TRP is you don't talk about TRP. Your a spy in a enermy land, if you reveal your true nature you will be crucified for it. So you hide your true self and instead use your knowledge of the enermy to get what you want. You're awake and you know that those around you will do there best to make sure no one else awakens.
Strip_Bar 5y ago
You’re spot on with this, she’s doing it as a reaction to you she’s in your frame. The reason you even know about this other dude is she wants you to know. Women will date below their smv if they are either trying to recoup their lost self esteem caused by an alphas rejection or to try to get even or make the alpha jealous. In doing this however the only person they really betray is themselves.

Girl doesn't like you for your nose.. who cares! Girl doesn't want to talk to you.. next! someone said you have a weird smell.. hmmmm, maybe you should listen to that. In other words, learn from what people think of you, it can help you improve yourself, but don't take it personally.

Hell no, there is plenty of ways to figure out if she is single or not. If you can't, you can ask her directly?
"Hi, how are you doing?"
chitchat
"Wanna come over my place?" - If she agree, she most likely available, if not, you move to next girl and try to resurrect her again 4-6 months later (if you are in a situation you wanna refresh the roster).
vfb14 5y ago
They always come back. They might need to leave so they can fulfill a necessity that certain specific phase of her life demands (especially if she is in her epiphany phase [27-30]). Once you plate a girl, you can spin it indirectly indefinitely, because when they achieve whatever they were after, it doesn't take them long to realize that security does not produce tingles, thus causing them to reach out to her top alpha fucks option available to bring some excitement in her now predictable life.
Thunderbird93 5y ago
There are also alpha chicks out there who like control. Naturally since they clash with alphas they will settle for a beta.
KeffirLime 5y ago
There's no such thing as an Alpha woman, only a masculine woman, most likely developed because of a lack of masculine direction and leadership.
In the absence of masculinity, femininity is eroded and replaced with what you'd describe as an "alpha female". It's a natural survival tactic.
When there is a stable presence of strong males a woman is able to embrace her femininity, her survival is generally ensured, she can be comfortable and let the men do most of the heavy lifting in terms of direction and leadership.
Without this, she has to step up to the plate and carry the burden herself.
Put forth a society such as ours desperately lacking in male leadership, highlighted perfectly in Rollos most recent post, where masculine traits have been outlined as "harmful" and you're left with a growing number of women adopting masculine traits.
All woman are biologically drawn to strong men, they want to submit and be woman, it's just that some have never had the privilege of encountering one.
Cant_Tell_Me_Nothin 5y ago
I think for half of them its also due to hormones. A lot of women I've dealt with who act masculine also tend to have have masculine physical features; manjaws, square hips, deeper voices, etc.
max_peenor 5y ago
Men that lack frame and assertiveness will often conflate a woman being an unmanaged bitch with a woman alpha. These women aren't acting this way because they have a natural aggressive tendencies and wish to actually dominate other people. They are testing to find someone that will actually put them in their place.

My chickens provide a good example of this. If you don't have any roosters, one of the hens will eventually stop laying eggs and start pecking at the other hens and even start trying to crow.

http://blackdragonblog.com/2012/07/29/the-three-types-of-women/
I am more in agreement with Blackdragon’s categorization of women in overarching personality archetypes of Dominant/Submissive/Independent than flat out stating there is no such thing as an Alpha Woman. A true Independent woman (as stated by the article. Gtfo with that strong independent wimmens bs) would be the closest equivalent to Alpha Male/Female. That said the terms Alpha Male/Chad are a heuristic/caricature of concepts that do not fully represent reality, it’s merely a useful approximation so that we’re all somewhat in agreement on what the concept means.
I fully agree that a female that is forced to shoulder the masculine load develops both the required masculine traits and is completely miserable doing it.

Black dragon doesn't necessarily dig into what factors produce dominant/submissive/independent women.
I'd argue a women's upbringing, more importantly the presence of strong masculinity has a very strong influence on which category she'll inevitably fall into.

You’re arguing for kids brought up well turn out well. Duh. Counterpoint being now a majority of kids are not brought up well at all. It’s sadly a valid point.
We’re arguing for different points of the same thing. I say the ability to recognize the female type you’re dealing with is a more practical skill than figuring out how she got that way. I care about the what. I can figure out the hows I just don’t care that much. The hows can be useful to find some insecurities to use as thumbscrews.
KeffirLime 5y ago
I find the what as well as the how important, it impart's you with the ability to ascertain a women's propensity for unpleasant behaviors.
Red Flag awareness essentially, she may be an angel today because you're nailing dominant behaviors, but over time it can get harder and harder and she may be a ticking time bomb.

You make good points my brother, however consider this. What about the statistic that there are more women in college than men now? If women's purchasing power parity increases due to skilled labour through education then they see less of a need to submit. She now has more money than most men she encounters and with that comes more self confidence and power, therefore making her alpha

My experience has been the opposite. Professionally accomplished women love to be dominated in the bedroom. I've had this happen with female doctors and, especially, high-powered female lawyers. They would never consider dating someone beneath them, and thus they struggle to find men. If they do find one, he tends to be similarly or more successful, but a large number of such men are beta, and thus these women are unhappy. They love raw masculine power. I mean, they go nuts over it. If you can be both accomplished professionally and employ red pill principles, you wouldn't believe what women will do for you.

In his book, Tribe by Sebastian Junger he cites a pretty telling statistic. In a situation where a dire emergency has occurred and men are present, there has never been a recorded case of a woman hero. Never. The only time you have a case where say a car accident happens and the occupants are pulled out is when only women are present on the scene.
I think this is a pretty telling fact about the nature of women. They step up and fill in a vacuum because they have too.
freew33zy 5y ago
Never a woman hero? Not once? Could I get a cite or a link or something on that? If true that's incredibly interesting.
UEMcGill 5y ago
I looked in his book and he said:
I'll clarify what I said, women only are heroes when no men are present. I can't find that in the book, but I also heard of the book from when Junger was on Joe Rogan, so it may have been from that podcast.
Another interesting note, further on he goes on to describe how women will be heroes in their own way, like banding together in social solidarity, an example he gave was where a group of women hostages told the hostage takers, "Kill us all or kill none of us"
But my overall theory stands, Women will step up and take the place of men, in predominantly male roles when no males are present. Otherwise, they will take the roles they are better at.
He also talks a lot about how traditionally males are disposable and women are better at social cohesion. Some real Redpill truths from a guy who proclaims he is progressive left.

More female liberation, education and earning has been directly correlated with a steady decline in happiness over the last 30 years because Alpha behavior is misaligned with her inherent nature.
The problem stemmed from drafting men, wars, which required females taking a more prominent role in society. Which has snowballed until now, women becoming more masculine on a large scale.
It's left us with stronger, more educated, more independent women, however biological shifts don't take place in such a short period, inherent female nature remains, which is happiest when it's being satisfied, and it's satisfied by being with a strong, high value male, providing leadership and direction.
So yes she can have the appearance of an "Alpha", however there's no such thing as inherent alpha women.
Thunderbird93 5y ago
I agree that biology is an important variable that I omitted. Something however that we haven't mentioned is female intelligence being allowed expression. Just look at the Nobel prize winning Marie Curie who won awards in both physics and chemistry. Wouldn't you call Curie an intellectual alpha?
KeffirLime 5y ago
I'd call her intellectually capable.
Alpha infers how high you are on the sexual hierarchy.
Women don't necessarily operate within a strict vertical hierarchy, they compete on a more horizontal set-up, their desire is to attach themselves to those at the top of the male dominance hierarchy.
Men compete and co operate, women compete and then cast out.
They compete by displaying the traits that (Alpha) men find the most attractive, which is generally physical prowess.
Although I'd generally strictly reserve the terms Alpha and Beta for male usage, I'd say a model, or HB10 women would be at the top of the pile for female sexual value.
Imperator_Red 5y ago
I don't even know that that means. You are just taking the word alpha and attaching it to any positive characteristic that you feel like. Alpha just describes a man who is successful with women because they perceive him to have a high SMV. That's it.
Nicolas0631 5y ago
We link alpha with masculinity, but I'd think at the core the alpha is the leader of the pack, be it a male or female (typically that depend of the specy).
Ms Angela Merkel is clearly an alpha. She is smart, she has the cunning, she is in control and hold formidable power even through it is more difficult theses day. She is female but more alpha than 99.999% of the population..

No mate, they just go and seek higher value men in the "promised land" of money and power. Don't get fooled by career women, they are still women.
I've disqualified chicks for having poor social skills or for being fat, it does not make me alpha. If a rich guy doesn't talk to you cause you're poor it does not make him alpha. If a woman looks down on you because you drive a Nissan and she drives a Mercedes, it does not make her alpha.
What if I am sleeping with women who are way more attractive than her whom she cannot compete with? It just means she has an inflated ego because of all that nonsense (money and power). She can have all the money in the world but that does not mean I am beneath her, nor does it mean I am going to want to sleep with her as all of them love to believe.
Being alpha is about not being influenced by your environment, at least from my understanding, women are always influenced by validation, as you said, with a bicycle you likely won't get the Rolls-Royce chick but an alpha man just does what he wants. Women in contrast have to evaluate SMV by predicting what other people will say and this greatly influences her decision.
Zech4riah 5y ago
True but why would you wanna try to spin dominant (possibly masculine) woman...?
FwoGiZ 5y ago
No such thing as alpha female, how ever you spin things.
Women acting like a men or doing man things doesn't make them alpha.......

Those career driven women are examples of alpha women. They may temporarily yield to an alpha big dick Chad to get proper fucked, but will clash violently when the alpha Chad wants to take the lead.
In the end, alphas need betas, like yin and yang. If you're an alpha guy, find a beta woman. If you're an alpha gal, find a beta boy. In the end, there will be less conflict, less drama, and greater happiness.
thewrecker8 5y ago
I think the career driven women are more feminists than "alpha females". They embraced the "don't rely on men, you can do everything a man can do and do it better" philosophy. With the amount of beta dads out there (i.e. women who locked down their beta providers). They embrace the feminism movement and, along with their "don't settle like me" wives, mold their daughters to be "strong independent women who dont need no man".
SeasonedRP 5y ago
No, such women want to be led. They just don't often find men they will let lead. My dating life largely consists of these women, and I know them well.
Thunderbird93 5y ago
Exactly bro. Especially the college graduate females who have high earning power in the labour market. They adopt a girl power mentality and strong feminism, one can even argue they acquire frame and don't want it challenged
Imperator_Red 5y ago
There is no such thing as an alpha woman. All you guys need to read the fucking sidebar. We use the term alpha to describe a man who women perceive as having a high SMV. That is its sole proper usage.
Atheist_Utopia 5y ago
Which article is it specifically?
GreetMufasa 5y ago
I really struggle with this idea of "Alpha Females", if you have sat down with a career woman and understand what makes her tick, it's always a long term plot to get what she believes to be a "high value man". Whether it's the Yale Law school chick or the Harvard MBA, they always go there with intention of finding their Mr Degree/Hot Shot/Big Gun/Guy with a startup. Once they get there and realize they were wrong, they just use their careers as a source of validation, "I am C-X-O at [insert big company]".
Their decision making is always influenced by validation, yes there are a few outliers but the majority falls under the Mrs Husband-Title group, they just pretend to be "strong and independent" because this sells these days.
Skyhawk_And_Skyhead 5y ago
Or daddy issues. I've never met a female lawyer who's dad was actually there.
KeffirLime 5y ago
It's a perfect example of female solipsism, projecting traits she herself would find attractive in a man and pursuing them vigorously, only to find men don't really give a shit about her career or how strong willed she is.
Partly why feminism is taking the route it is, it's one big pile of solipsistic shit, taking all the things they find attractive in men and applying it to woman, thinking it's going to sky rocket their value and make their lives great.
Instead, it leaves them miserable, having to carry the stress and burden of operating in intense environments, all the while driving men to run for the hills.
dcmcmd 5y ago
Same effect from a different angle when raising a male child - encourages in them the various beta characteristics they would find appealing in a provider partner. Curses said child with a bucket load of useless advice on women!
Thunderbird93 5y ago
I'd agree but add and argue that feminism and the liberal agenda for women have primarily adopted the victimhood premium. Its a narrative that says society has wronged you and owes you something. Just look at the Cyntoia Brown case. She killed a man while he slept and stole his truck and guns. Yet the court of public opinion thanks to famous liberals like Rihanna and Kim K turned her into the victim although she perpetrated the crime. Her 51 year sentence was definitely over the top but the notion that her as being the true victim is the kind of rationalization I find prevalent in our times. Women nowadays love thinking of themselves as "survivors".
KeffirLime 5y ago
Very true, it's the exploitation of human nature, that jumps to defend a damsel in distress.
Biologically males are tasked with ensuring the safety of females and young, hence the quickest and easiest way to obtain investment is to assume the role of the victim.
Men now feel a duty to uplift and diffuse this victimhood, while other women join the fight because they see how much investment and attention points it garners.
Thunderbird93 5y ago
For real man. All these sexual assault cases coming to light decades after the fact? I'd never spike a chicks drink or do shady shit but why not report it immediately? The current narrative is that its "brave" to "come out" so we see all these so called "victims" using it as a platform for the spotlight. Even when it comes to drugging a chick, I've been under the influence of LSD and unlike Frank Olson I didn't jump to my death. Personal responsibility is a scarce asset in our times.

Raging hormones and healthy, fully functional reproductive organs, shes may be an inexperienced woman but she is a woman none the less. Biologically she will behave like a woman and so she has.
JamesSkepp 5y ago
Of course it's an another alpha. You're not competing for her attraction with the beta who is not attractive to her, you're competing with the attractive alpha. Attraction is not a choice, thus it's her decision to marry beta but it's not her's to cheat with an alpha afterwards.
Zech4riah 5y ago
This comment basically contradicts the thing that women nearby the wall stop seeking AF and prefer BB instead.
JamesSkepp 5y ago
They don't. They still want AF, but will settle for BB while seeking AF anyway.
Zech4riah 5y ago
Yes, they still want AF but they will seek for BB for long term support. Provider hunters are the extreme case there.
Like I wrote in the post, there is the time when the desire of commitment overcomes the desire for tingles...atleast for awhile.
