Yeah, I think it's an age thing. I only ever used that word when training dogs. The younger guys seem to have an obsession with it, though.
I hadn't considered this, but I think you're spot on. It's a word that has become fashionable with the younger generations. I barely heard it when I was growing up, at least not when talking about humans. No doubt its popularity derives from the PUA movement.

I remember the first time the words "alpha" and "beta" hit my radar. It was around 1999/2000, and I think the words were buzzing with relation to Al Gore, who was running for president. Media blowhards were calling him a beta and Clinton (of course) an alpha
That sounds vaguely familiar, I think I can dimly recall that. The people who formed the "original" pickup community were meeting on the internet during the '90s, so I still think that terminology became fashionable due to them (as applied to humans). Some ridicule wikipedia as a source, but this article is kind of interesting as a brief recap of PUA history:

I'm not like that

Sometime it just feels like the whole alpha beta thing is like James bond vs me
The alpha and red pill, blue pill is overdone and childish. Before the movie the Matrix, this red pill / blue pill crap wasn't around. You need to have a high self respect and self worth for yourself. You need to have direction in life. You need to have your sh it in order (health/finance/crib) and you need to not place females on a pedestal. They must know that you will walk at one sign of major disrespect. All dudes can do this. All. Get to it.
