A defence mechanism used by men who are unable to compete in one or more arenas of modern society, and so must compensate by subscribing to an outdated and and obsolete notion of masculinity. The moniker of "alpha male" is most often bestowed onto the man by himself, rather than an outside source.
Society: You can't have sex with that woman because she already has a boyfriend.
Alpha Male: But I'm an Alpha Male and he's at least 3 inches shorter than me! This is too hard! Why can't it be 10,000 BC again?

A cocky, obnoxious dude who is insecure and deals with people by putting them down. He is small so he acts big. Often these flaws come from his immaturity and low social status. They have no real power so they feel the need to exude jock male attributes to put themselves over.

I AM AN ALPHA MALE WHO CHUGS WHISKEY WHILE RIDING A TIGER AND PLAYING FOOTBALL AND SAYING 'NO HOMO' AND HAVING EMOTIONALLY DETACHED SEX WITH HIS PENIS TAPED SHUT

In nature, some animals, like wolves, have an "alpha male" in their pack. The alpha male is the one who leads the pack, makes sure it's fed, etc. The thing is though, this only happens when the pack's environment changes dramatically, like if they're put in a zoo. There is a group of (human) people who don't get this though and call themselves "alpha males", i.e "manly". They usually think they're much better than everyone else. The "hierarchy" goes like this in their head;
Alpha males (manly n' shit)
Beta males (Losers)
Now, the thing is, some "alpha males" think "wait, I'm better than everyone, why am I sharing the top of the hierarchy with so many who also think they're better than everyone?", and created "Sigma males", basically the same thing, but with no friends (They're "too good" for friends), so in their mind, the hierarchy goes
Sigma males (super manly n' shit)
Alpha males (manly n' shit)
Beta males (Losers)
It's just cringe

The Alpha Male does not have a specific "Image", or fall under a certain category and is not defined by looks, money, or arrogance rather the Alpha Male is defined as being an all around good guy but possessing the confidence and social know-how to be successful in epic proportions with woman but anything the Alpha Male sets his mind out to be. Yeah that's right you wanted to be an ultra marathoner astronaut anesthesiologist astrophysicist but your not Alpha Male mind set told you you couldn't do it so your a failure before you even start. The Alpha Male does not brag about his successes with woman, money, education, etc. at least not often because when he walks into the room everyone can quite literally feel his presence of awesomeness. It is not arrogance but genuine good. The Alpha Male can be anyone he wants without compromising a drop of his true character, the Alpha Male does not believe in "leagues" like you weak beta males...the Alpha Male is understanding, nice, social, and sometimes even caring and does not care if its perceived as "beta or weak" because if anyone were to challenge him he would socially castrate them from beta to omega...
Alpha Male: Yeah that pretty girl you saw in chemistry that you and your beta male friends all said were out of your "league" ("leagues" do not exist if your an Alpha male) and think no one but Bill Gates and Brad Pitt fused together could get, I asked her out and we had epic sex and she's begging for more except you'll never know because I don't care what you think...
