An '''alpha male''' usually just means a very sexually successful male.  However in other contexts, it would mean that man is the "best" in that context (e.g. money). Nothing really pseudoscientific or conspiratorial about believing that some men are much more sexually successful than others, giving them a laboel, and pointing out they have privilege.  Contrary to [[Adam Conover]], the term "Alpha" is indeed used in academia to describe humans, as well as many other animals, and not just wolves.  In academia it is used to describe very sexually successful men
