Topic	Adam Ruins Everything: Alpha Males Do Not Exist
HylianFox 11/17/19 2:43:11 PM #16:	BlameAnesthesia posted... Joe is creating a synonymous depiction of alpha to mean--strong, confident, etc, whereas the beta is introverted and anxious. The problem with Joe's argument is it dichotomizes people into two camps. That's overly reductionist. People are complex. Not everyone who is introverted is anxious, unconfident, and neurotic. This. I mean, this is just like people who misread "survival of the fittest" when it comes to evolution to mean "only the biggest and strongest" when it actually means "whatever is best suited to its environment" Humans (and men especially, let's be honest) have a very rudimentary and childish notion of what it means to be "strong" (or "alpha") --- I like my beer cold, my TV loud, and my homosexuals FUH-LAMING! - Homer Simpson Don't be a turd. - Chris Pratt <cite>HylianFox posted [p:930273581] in Adam Ruins...
