It is possible for an alpha male to be sleazy, manipulative, aggressive, or abusive. Such men tend to use aggression and intimidation to become an alpha male in order to obtain desirable women.<ref>https://psycnet.apa.org/record/1987-21883-001</ref><ref>https://www.academia.edu/14471033/Reproductive_strategies_and_relationship_preferences_associated_with_prestigious_and_dominant_men</ref>
Ambitious and assertive men tend to use dominance and intimidation to become an alpha male (obtaining desirable women).<ref>https://psycnet.apa.org/record/1987-21883-001</ref><ref>https://www.academia.edu/14471033/Reproductive_strategies_and_relationship_preferences_associated_with_prestigious_and_dominant_men</ref>
Alphas are, however, also often genuinely good people when they are very confident in their superiority. Life is good for them, so they have little to gain from competitiveness having already achieved easy access to high quality females. Such alphas can rather strengthen their status by maintaining alliances with betas.

[[Beta]] males are moderately sexually successful and typically followers; they are usually subservient to alphas.  Traditionally, they usually exchange loyalty to alphas in exchange for alphas not hoarding all the [[female]]s. However, modern day betas tend to not (vocally) care much about getting laid nor who is ruling them.  [[Beta]] is a near synonym for "normie" or, "average male".  They generally have to work to bribe women with resource/job security, unlike alphas.
