A term with a somewhat subjective meaning which refers to a man who's considered high in status or a paradigm of masculinity. Originated in 1989 by martial artist instructor Marc "Animal" McYoung.
How it's measured however varies a lot depending on who's using it.
Sometimes it refers to a stereotypical 'macho', gangsta, jock, or tough guy, other times it refers to a ladies man or playboy who has sex with lots of beautiful women, or other times a guy who's wealthy or socially powerful, such as a successful entrepreneur, CEO, etc.
As mentioned above often it's just used to refer to superficial and stereotypically "manly" qualities, other times however it refers to character traits independent from a man's material status, such as strength, courage, mastery, and honor.
A beta man is an average or below average man on the 'alpha' scale; either a guy who's not very socially respected or attractive to women, or one who demonstrates weak or spineless behavior in general, sometimes posers and fake 'alphas' get referred to as betas as well.

Her roots date back to Howard University, Washington, D.C., where the idea for formation was conceived by Ethel Hedgeman Lyle of St. Louis, Missouri. She viewed the Sorority as an instrument for enriching the social and intellectual aspects of college life by providing mental stimulation through interaction with friends and associates. Through the years, however, Alpha Kappa Alpha's function has become more complex. After her incorporation as a perpetual body in 1913, Alpha Kappa Alpha gradually branched out and became the channel through which selected college-trained women improved the socioeconomic conditions in their city, state, nation, and the world.
In a world in which materialism is pervasive, and technology and competition have decreased the need for collaboration and cooperation, it is critical to have an association that cuts across racial, international, physical, and social barriers to help individuals and communities develop and maintain constructive relationships with others. Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority is that vital organization.

Get the Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, Incorporatedmug. Many people beleive an Alpha Male is a man who is the leader of a pack, dominant, or an agressive male. Fuck these stone age definitions. I will define a true ALPHA MALE in modern society, simply in three parts:
1. A known statistic today is, for every 1 male who has sex there are 2 women having sex, the reason for this statistic is becuase alpha males are the ones who are having all sex, while Beta males sit on the side lines watch this happen.
2. Modern Alpha males dictate their own reality, Alpha's effortlessly change brain patterns of poeple around them,women and men around alpha's feel their strong character and charisma and naturally gravitate and follow thier leadership skills, this is why women beleive everything we say is knowledgable or humerous and subconsiously fall into our laps.
3. Alpha's are frequenlty being considered self-centered assholes. However this could not be further from the truth. We as Alpha males do not cater or sympathize to emtional garbage from insecure women and Beta males, that is not a part of our reality. We see situations in life as our personal stage and have full knowledge and understanding that we control the reality around us, there for the ladys will always have sex with us and the guys will always want to be us.

Becuase I am an Alpha Male I can make friends with lots of women and have sex with all of them and not one of the women would feel devalued or any less of a friend to me
