I agree with the stuff saying the whole alpha/beta stuff in wolves is incorrect and unnuanced but I sort of agree with the concept of a sigma male out of my own selfishness and recognition of its characteristics in myself. Like, I think it gets painted as more masculine stereotyped than it is but I also disagree entirely with the modern and even historical understanding or portrayl of masculinity. I think the Sigma male is a bit autism-coded in a way. Like it packages up basically autistic characteristics and makes them palatable to a more neurotypical or general audience

Why are American men so concerned about their masculinity? From the outside it doesn’t look like they have anything to worry about.
