A high-quality confident and competent male who does not exhibit the Dunning-Kruger, and who does not get alphed by alpha males but can typically outsmart and lead alpha males.

A type of men who wanted to be a "alpha male" but wanted to be like cooler or some crap?
So they decided to make their own type of male.
So they decided to make their own type of male.
Person 1 (a beta male): Yoooo, you're such a alpha.
Person 2 (an absolute sigma male): No, no, no! You absolute IDIOT! I am a SIGMA MALE, get it right you beta b*tch.

An incredibly pretentious, smug person who believes they are somehow more unique and special than everyone else, and allegedly don't need to prove it to anyone (or so they claim).
They also unironically idolize the character, Patrick Bateman from American Psycho, treating him as the archetypal sigma male, when said character is actually a depraved psychopath, necrophile and serial killer who is not even supposed to be likable in the first place and was created by the author, Bret Easton Ellis, as a negative caricature of shallow, materialistic yuppies from the 80s. And no, almost none of these "Sigma" males have actually read American Psycho, nor seen its film adaptation, hence why they completely miss the point of his character and admire him for all the wrong reasons.
