'''Mogging''' (a verbification and apheresis of the acronym ''AMOG'' for ''alpha male of the group'') is the act of [[dominance hierarchy|dominating]] another person. A person who mogs others is called a mogger. A person who gets mogged is a moggee or mog-victim. | '''Mogging''' (a verbification and apheresis of the acronym ''AMOG'' for ''alpha male of the group'') is the act of [[dominance hierarchy|dominating]] another person.

The term originated in the [[PUA]] community, who commonly advocated mogging other men as an effective tactic to attract women. It is typically used to describe a man (though the term is often incorrectly used in a gender-neutral fashion) who is more [[SMV|sexually attractive]] overall than another person. Especially when this higher sexual attractiveness threatens the mog victim's chance of becoming a [[reproductive success]] or related [[confidence|self-confidence]]. This kind of dominance display is common among animal species with [[dominance hierarchies]], especially in animals with high [[sexual dimorphism]] and high sex differences in [[parental investment]]. | The term originated in the [[PUA]] community, who commonly advocated mogging other men as an effective tactic to attract women.

The most cringe-worthy forms of mogging occur when it happens to [[omegas|particularly low-status individuals]]. Since the terms [[inceldom]] and [[femceldom]] are umbrella terms, there are many ways through which moggees get mogged, such as having a disability (a [[disabledcel]]) next to a non-disabled person, having cognitive issues (a [[mentalcel]]) next to a [[neurotypical]] person, etc. | The most cringe-worthy forms of mogging occur when it happens to [[omegas|particularly low-status individuals]].
