Beta

Traits of provision: either providing resources or validation to others, women (and perhaps men).

"Billy is a real man for marrying Stacy and being step-father to her kids. He is a kind, dependable, comforting, wealthy, faithful, intelligent feminist ally, and a great father/husband who breaks his back working 60 hour weeks to financially support his family. So why did Stacy dead-bedroom him for years while cheating on him with Chad, then divorce him and take all of his assets?"

"Because he is socially awkward, has a small dick, looks like Danny DeVito, and was a virgin when they got married. The thought of giving him any more opportunities to pass on his inferior genes subconsciously repulses her, and she loathes him for making her feel that way. Now he is stuck having to pay alimony and child support for the rest of his life. He is hopelessly beta."
