A confident and capable male that doesn't seek approval or abide by social hierarchy. He sets his own goals, and defines his own success.
Aaron Alpha wants his software team to use the Agile method to write their new program, and goes on and on about it in every meeting. Bob Beta doesn't want to rock the boat with Aaron, so he starts learning how Agile works. Owen the Omega Male writes the program during the meetings while everyone else is talking.

The polar opposite of the Alpha Male. Omega Males can have friends and close acquaintances but prefer to accomplish things on their own without the help of a group. Omega Males generally don't belong to any cliques and have no desire to be the leader or most outstanding of said clique. Omega Males have relations with people from all groups and carry a resourcefulness and cunning (sometimes strength) to get a job done with their own skill. This being said, an omega male can have great pride without it manifesting as "ego." (There are always exceptions.
An Alpha Male MUST absolutely be perceived by his peers as the toughest, most popular, and smartest. An Omega Male cares little for this recognition...but knows that he is all those things and more.
Alpha males must have the support of his "boys." This can be the foundation for many shallow and superficial relationships. An Omega Male needs support from time to time, but has few true friends who know him intimately and generally shuns shallow acquaintences.
Two sides of the same coin....both being very effective in accomplishing goals.

In Animals:
Two Rams are butting heads while the female watches. The winner who mates is the stongest and therefore the Alpha Male.
Wait...A third ram runs out of the woods and mates with the female while the two males are fighting. THAT is the omega male.
In Humans:
Alpha Male: John Stewart
Omega Male: Steven Colbert
Alpha Male: Team Sport Captain
Omega Male: Dedicated student/master of martial arts.

Omega male in social terms is an outsider yet notable for distinction, someone worthy who does not conform to the existing peer hierarchy. It has been said that an Omega is someone of zero worth, as ethologist use Alpha, Beta and Omega in pack descriptions with omega being the lowest position. This has little to do with the socially developed human hierarchy originally used by sorority sisters in the united states to easily label males according to a set of hegemonically established criteria. For example if someone is described as the "Last word" in men, that would hardly be a pejorative description. To use Omega as a negative term is to fail to recognize that losers did not exist in relation to the thought process of the college/university girls who popularized this system, and as such get no mention at all. They only mention people who are socially significant in some positive way as to merit their attention.
Omega is a logical choice, when faced with the problem of describing people who are clearly not subservient to an alpha yet cannot be described as an alpha themselves, There is no set criteria for an Omega, the sole common trait is one of being a rogue social wander who avoids binding attachments generally rejects social hierarchy treating everyone equally based on personal judgment, and refuses to be drawn into tribalistic feuds between groups of people

A male who tends to stick to his passions rather than the crowd. He cares what other people think, but not even close to enough to follow his dreams and ambition. He is often left a loner because of this, sometimes by choice. Many people find him admirable and follow him as a leader, others think of him as the lowest form of life, for not conforming to common societal standards. Some may argue he is the lowest on the hierarchy, others argue the highest.
Basically an underrated, more sensitive Sigma male

Omega the last letter of the Greek alpha which symbioses "End"
To be an Omega Male is to be the end, to be the end is to be Death, to be Death is to be the one who ends the story, this is the last man standing when everything else has fallen. Omega males have no need to lead but have a great need to know truth. To know truth is to know point, to know point is to know the answer, to know the answer is the end of the question.
Those who go to war with the Omega male soon realise that you can not kill Death. But that Death will always embrace you in the end.

The King, The Judge, The Warrior all learn to be Alpha Males in their life. But those who become Omega Males become The Inquisitors that test the depth of truth within the Alpha Males, ultimately measuring the worth of their soul.

An Omega Male is the last of the real men. Just as God is called the Alpha & the Omega, the first & the last. The Alpha males are leaders of other men, thus being the first. The Omegas are the last of men, not because they are the bottom of the barrel but because they are the survivors. When all other men falter, the Omega will never stand down.
An Omega is not a leader or follower, they are just doers. They do what needs to get done without needing to be told or asked. Some can be outcasts & some can be a big part of the community. But all are self starters that take pride in getting things done, especially if done by themselves.
A king, politician, sports star, & celebrity are all most likely Alphas. But real heroes that will endanger their lives for something they believe in & do not care about praise for it are usually the Omegas, such as fire fighters, warriors, snipers, spies, ect...

Thing 1: Did you see that guy on YouTube that built his own log cabin by hand? Total Alpha.
Thing 2: Nah, he doesn't care about being a leader. That guy is an Omega.

The highest possible status a man can achieve. eats alpha males for breakfast.
When an omega male is born its game over.
the end.
As in the movie "omega man" only man left standing.
despite being the oppisite of alpha, an omega male represents the top of the human food chain as there can only be one.
