A man who is content with nontraditional gender roles; i.e., he is not threatened by intelligent and/or powerful women, and he does not have to be in control of every situation to maintain his sense of self. (Frequently, he does manifest a quiet kind of confidence and control over his surroundings, but it's not important to him that this is noticed by others.)
A beta male is often introverted, intelligent, and introspective. Though he may have been branded a "nerd" growing up, the adult beta is frequently a thoughtful, capable, and fascinating individual whom many women find appealing.
Alpha males, especially those of lesser intelligence and abilities, tend to feel threatened by beta males, who are increasingly preferred by women in modern times.

Get the Beta Male mug.A man who is obsessed with trying to convince everyone around him that he is an alpha male. Beta males are the most violent and aggressive of all men. Prisons are filled with beta males. A true alpha male never needs to convince anyone, doesn't care if he is one, and might not even know it. The genuine admiration and respect that a man receives from other men, due to his good character, intelligence, and leadership, is what makes an alpha male. Beta males will never attain alpha status by demeaning other men. Women who are attracted to beta males share the same poor character and low self esteem.

Get the beta male mug.A man that is unsure what to do next, yet willing to do it, whatever it may be.
