Trying to make a light-hearted poll here, but my Christmas Eve beers appear to be affecting my success. ????

My wife told me to give myself a 4, then go and finish the household chores.

On a typical day, 3, but luck wit me and I become a 10. 

Since i watch Cesar Millan...........pretty high.

My wife and I are not animal we just decide what's best as a partnership.

Maybe a bit boring but I don't know how else to answer.

I think it being early on a Friday night and Christmas Eve, the real guys are out hunting or wife beating and they'll be along later. ????

I'm with JT and gave myself a 3.

Because, I'm not a leader.

I don't lift, have a 6-pack or read self help books.

I pay a woman to pretend to be my wife.

 

Hey, but it's not all bad, at least I'm not an InCel!

"There are lots of guys on here who claim to be 'ex SAS/Marines/Special Forces' plus quite a few who have strong opinions and like an argument."

 

  I have never read anyone who claims to be ex SAS /marines/Special forces 

 

I'll let everyone else rate themselves first.............if that's OK with you?

Priceless!! 555+

About 9 inches worth...

I think in today's world it's not cool to have clearly defined gender roles. Fortunately I'm a member of the most hated species in the modern world i.e. a middle aged white man. In accordance with the role I never wash the dishes, enjoy beer in moderation, don't cheat on my wife but allow myself to leer at young women. . .

 

I gave myself an 8.

I was never special forces but was part of a team who planned to blow up the world in the Cold War. if that counts.

Not sure where to put myself on that scale, but I am sure I lose some points like BritManToo for having pet bunnies instead of a Pit Bull.

It seems in other countries it is necessary to be an alpha male to be able to have fun with sexy girls.

As many or us know that requirement does not exist in Thailand. So we all can relax and don't have to be alpha all the time.

I *would* respond to the poll with how alpha I am because it might be an inspiration to others, but 1) it's not on the scale in your OP and 2) I doubt anyone on here has the requisite security clearance for me to be at liberty to disclose that information.

I gave myself a 2 - 

 

though zero might apply too - I just don't care and shows of masculinity would seem silly at this age... 

I am an Omicron male. Until they get that Omega stamm officially certified.

Undoubtedly many would score very high in cyber space, but very low on planet earth. Anonymous alpha males are a dime a dozen, real ones are few and far between.

You've not been a member long enough... give it time.

This forum is full of the hardest, cleverest guys on planet Earth.

Despite being in the services and living quite a long time I can agree with that. The most "real man" I knew wasn't an aggressive idiot, but sadly died in his 40s.

I have read at least one on this forum who states that he is an "alpha male".

I think the 'ex SAS/Marines/Special Forces' claims happen more in barrooms.

What rating should i give myself handcuffing the wife to the bed ? 

Not sure if im an alpha male, i do household stuff, cook for me. I do work out a lot but don't consider that as an alpha male quality. 

 

Let's put it this way i do what i want and will never do stuff I absolutely hate. But on the other hand I have no problem doing the shopping for the GF (mainly because i prepare my own food). 

 

Im not sure what alpha male is, I do know that im currently suffering from bouts of insomnia that break me down a bit. Id say im mostly a softy but one that won't be pushed past certain limits. 

 

I love to debate on this forum but in real life with people i know I am not that opinionated. Not going to destroy friendships because of my opinions. 

 

Damm i wish i was able to sleep.

My wife does seem to appreciate my "take charge" approach. So, I guess that means I still have some testosterone. We both seem to enjoy our respective roles in the relationship, unlike the vast majority of couples in the West, Oz and NZ. 

 

On the other hand she likes to kid me about my "one pack".  But my thick skin might be further indication of my manhood. 

I start out at 3 but I'm sneaky.  After 6 beers I get to 9, but who counts?  I conducted a lot of operations with SAS/Marines/Special Forces, mainly janitorial stuff.  And if you believe that ....  ????

 

Hey, I like what my older son wrote not too long before he was killed in Iraq.  Alpha male?  No, just a good guy who did what he felt was right.

 

"Who Am I?

I'm an engineer, an artist, or a U.S. Marine. I'm as comfortable with physics as I am with ballistics or a brush. Whether I'm feeling like the reasoned intellectual, the right brained artist, or the hard-corps Devil Dog, I've been called an enigma, a Renaissance man, or simply "Krazy Karl". I appear to be a nerd most of the time, sensitive and harmless, but around the edges I maintain just enough of the male bravado to take the lead in situations that require it. People can never quite put their finger on the nature of my personality, and the fact of the matter is, neither can I. I honestly don't know who I am, and I'm perfectly content with that, for it leaves me open to new experiences; I can be anyone I want to be, even if only for a day. Yet I always remember that I am flesh and blood like everyone else, so no matter how lonely I sometimes feel, my suffering is no different."

Just an 8, if you tie her to the stove you would get a perfect 10.

I did not vote because there were only 10 numbers 

 

PS: glad to see us talking about something other than Covid and travel restrictions ????

I identify as a Sigma male.

It's a relatively new category (look it up,)  but seems to fit those of us who tend to be lone wolves. We're neither leaders nor followers, don't crave the attention that Alpha males require, no expectations from others, live in the moment, not interested in societal norms and expectations. We just go on our merry way.  ????

 

A Sigma male will never be a ThaiVisa POTY.
