How people act toward beta and alpha males

[speakeasy]

It's interesting when you are sitting in a sizable group of people with both alpha and beta males were everyone is talking. Nobody ever talks over the alpha males. When they speak everyone listens and focuses on what they are saying. It's almost like they are afraid to be seen not listening.

When beta males talk, even if they are making good points, people's eyes often wander, people are ready to talk over him before he has finished. Sometimes the beta can't even finish the sentence before people have lost their attention, someone has spoken over him and stole the spotlight or he just gets tuned out.

I try to analyze what it is about the beta vs alpha presentation that causes the different responses. I'm not entirely sure.

I'm willing to bet there's a strong correlation between how many sex partners you've had, and how many people listen to you when you are talking, and importantly, how long he holds the attention span of the people who are truly listening.

I think you are going a little over the board with this, it's not that extreme.

What I have noticed is that the intelligence of the people in the group matters more than anything else. If they are smart they will listen to what you have to say, if not, and they have a very small attention span then they will speak over the other person.

I can also give you an example, in the talk shows with lower class people that do not have a lot of education it is a lot more common that people talk over each other. Now in the good quality talk shows with intelligent people this doesn't happen to often.

I think you're over analyzing this

Though it is somewhat true. I think the status of the person matters. If your manager has something to say, you better listen and not talk over him.

But most situations are relative. You will always have those rude people who talk over each other, and you will have the respectful people who don't, "alpha" or not

I wouldn't call myself the most dominant person, but many a time I have talked in a group and people have listened. I've also been interrupted many times as well

It's all relative

Hahaha I was a very quiet kid in every social group just 3 years ago. And I completly saw this everytime, but I do remember my voice tonality and body language failing on me, and most important of all. Inside my mind I was actually expecting people to talk over me. But if you find any results keep us up to date

This is a complex scenario presented. A person can be alpha and not be listened to because their communication skills sucks, and a beta can sound alpha because they are good at speaking. So is good speaking skills a requisite to being alpha? Once again goes back to what determines alpha/beta.

Bottomline in a group the most interesting/best speaking person is going to be listened to. Not necessarily the "most alpha". Alpha/Beta thinking is the baseline. Its a simple breakdown of the basic people. But we all know The Game is more complex then that just look at The Prince by Machiavelli. I mean its not always barney style simplicity out in life. You can be alpha as fuk but when it comes to speaking to a group of people, communicating a message you can suck at it but still be alpha. You see everyone is different so thats why you never underestimate people and try to place them as alpha or beta. Because people will surprise you everytime.

All you should know is that YOU are alpha, thats all that matters.

Some people think that being alpha is being the center of the attention all the time, the one who controls everyone, the one who is perfect or irresistible or who has a fan club of girls fainting over him.

A lot of narcissists are said to be alphas when actually they are users and pretend to be perfect.

I personally believe to be a true alpha is someone who is respectful of others in any social situation and not some bad mouth ass who is ready to fight at the drop of a hat if you offend him in anyway.

Alpha males are men who have their life and sh*t together and know where they have been and know where they are going Alpha males are actually successful people and that just could be you without the title of alpha.

Just some thoughts

LOL. you betas are so hung up on what alphas do. It's pathetic. Who ever had the power gets the attention. How hard is that to understand. If you don't know the person has power...you will find out when you overstep your boundaries.

Wow, that reminded me of myself in my high school years.
