Since this topic has come up a couple of times I thought I would take a moment to clarify what is meant be the term "alpha male."

"Alpha male or female" refers to the holder of the most dominant position in a social hierarchy. The holder of this position typically leads the social group and enjoys mating and food rights. The most important thing to realize is that any particular individual is only "alpha" while holding the dominant position in the hierarchy. Take wolves for example. A wolf pup grows up subordinate to another alpha male but may one day dethrone the alpha male to take his spot as the new alpha male. At this time the old alpha male is knocked out of this position and becomes a beta male.

In modern human society, alpha males are not determined by physical force but by social standing. Just as in the example above, ones status as an alpha male is temporary and today's alpha male often becomes tomorrows beta male as new alpha males come along and as age takes its toll. Googgle "Rat Pack" for a good example of this or just consider any of the sports greats of the past.

In this forum "alpha male" is often used in the pejorative as in AMOG. It should be "douche bag of group" because hyper aggressive guys are typically insecure and more douche than alpha. To refer to a man that is rude and overbearing as "alpha" might sound good but it is a misnomer.

At any rate, the take home message is that "alpha male" is NOT a genetic trait, it is a temporary position among a social hierarchy much like the presidency. This is not to say that there are not personality or even physical traits that predispose some men to attain this position while others fail to do so. Good looks and tall stature are obvious ones that come to mind. Then there are things such as ambition and charisma that may be learned or genetic. In my opinion the majority of the evidence suggests that these are learned traits but that's a whole other issue.

The thing that is important to know is that many of us who may even be social misfits are capable of becoming an alpha male. Remember, alpha male is a TEMPORARY SOCIAL POSITION that can be attained through hard work. It is NOT something one is born into - wealth not withstanding.

We are all here because each one of us wants to enjoy the fruits of an alpha male position. Much like running for office, the trick to attaining an alpha position is simply to convince the other members of society to accept your status. That's all there is too it. What Mystery has done is given us the tools to run a successful campaign and to achieve this position. Read and study his work - learn it well and go out and make it happen.

I hope this helps awaken the alpha males in all of you. Peace.

This isn't entirely true. When an existing alpha is challenged for dominance and loses, he does not BECOME a beta, he has been out alpha'd so to speak. While he may no longer be the alpha male of that particular pack, he is still AN alpha male in his own right capable of leading another pack, he must simply find another alpha he believes to be weaker than him to challenge. Not any wolf (or man) can or will challenge an alpha male for dominance, only those that believe that they themselves are more dominant can and will challenge and most likely succeed.

In modern human society, alpha males are not determined by physical force but by social standing. Just as in the example above, ones status as an alpha male is temporary and today's alpha male often becomes tomorrows beta male as new alpha males come along and as age takes its toll.

Alpha males are alpha males. FULL STOP
The acronym AMOG means Alpha Male OF THE GROUP. If you approach a set with an AMOG in it, you do not approach as a beta male and then become alpha after you have "dethroned" him. You approach as AN alpha and look to put yourself in the position of the alpha male of that particular group. The AMOG does not cease to be an alpha or dominant male simply because you out AMOG'd him, he simply is no longer the alpha male of that particular group.

In this forum "alpha male" is often used in the pejorative as in AMOG. It should be "douche bag of group" because hyper aggressive guys are typically insecure and more douche than alpha. To refer to a man that is rude and overbearing as "alpha" might sound good but it is a misnomer.

You're being too literal. It is not a misnomer at all. In this context, regardless of what traits make an AM the AMOG, the fact is that this person controls the frame of that particular group while he/she is in it. Therefore, whether or not you believe them to be merely bossy or a douche bag is irrelevant. What is relevant is that he/she controls the frame of the set and if you hope to game that particular set, you will need to out alpha the AMOG to put yourself in a position where YOU now control the frame of the set.

At any rate, the take home message is that "alpha male" is NOT a genetic trait, it is a temporary position among a social hierarchy much like the presidency. This is not to say that there are not personality or even physical traits that predispose some men to attain this position while others fail to do so. Good looks and tall stature are obvious ones that come to mind. Then there are things such as ambition and charisma that may be learned or genetic. In my opinion the majority of the evidence suggests that these are learned traits but that's a whole other issue.

Again, you're being way too literal. I disagree with this particular point somewhat. While it may not be a genetic TRAIT per say, it is a genetic predisposition, which is what makes naturals, well, naturals. What VAMM and other methods do is give those who are not genetically predisposed to exhibiting the traits of an alpha male the tools to appear more alpha than they typically would when interacting with others without the Venusian Arts. Perception IS reality; therefore if people you interact with PERCEIVE you as an alpha male, to them, you will in fact be one.

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but I find it interesting that you called out Johnny Soporno (of all people) for coming off as what you felt to be a know it all and then you post something that smacks of exactly that.

Johnny knows his shit, as I'm sure you do as well. However, Johnny's true wisdom (IMHO) comes in how he relates his knowledge to this forum and PU in general. While you may theoretically be correct in your description of the analytical definition of an alpha male, where the alpha male and PU are concerned, I for one think you may be a little off the mark.

"In humans, the expression refers to a man who is powerful or high on the social ladder, similar to hegemonic masculinity."

But as far as PU community is concerned, alpha male is often used just to describe a guy who's got what it takes to be top, a state of being. It's a different interpretation by most in this community. Check this as well:

The definition I gave is the true academic definition - it is not open to debate. The term "alpha male" refers to a temporary position in the social hierarchy. In pack animals there is only one alpha male by definition. When the old alpha is replaced he is no longer THE alpha. This is not open to debate.

Of course, like many terms, people use it loosely. When used as in "AMOG" it is being used to describe an aggressive male obstacle.

Many guys on this forum use the term to mean an aggressive, confident guy. This is a misnomer and it is the wrong way to look at it if you ever plan on becoming the alpha male. You can LEARN to be confidant and you can LEARN to be aggressive. Also, many insecure people act aggressively and over confident as a way to hide their insecurity - this is not alpha male behavior.

The thing that is important to a PUA is that he understand that "alpha male" is a title just like CEO, President, King, Prime Minister, etc. You have complete control over your social status and you have just as much ability to be alpha as the next guy.

It is a harmful mistake to assume that we are all born alpha or beta or omega and it is incorrect to use the term this way. People are entitled to their own opinions but this isn't a matter of opinion.

Of course we all get to decide what we believe or do not believe. If you believe what I'm telling you you may be on your way to becoming an alpha, if you believe that you are beta by birth and there is nothing you can do to change that then you are probably going to remain beta. The choice is yours. This is my point and I think it is one of the underlying themes of the MM IMHO.

Food for thought :

Many beta males get laid all the time, and many alpha males don't find anything interesting in the females (or people) around them.

Being an alpha male can be a very lonely and alienated position.

More food for thought:

"You don't want to be the social robot that is always playing power games when he should be relaxing and confidently enjoying his interactions with women. People aren't always trying to fuck with you." - MM

So if you're in the bar thinking "was that alpha? was that alpha? was that beta? WTF was that?" then you're kind of missing the point. All this alpha/beta shit drives me nuts. Just be a confident man for god's sake.

Women who date Alpha Losers
We all know at least one. A girl that seems to have everything going for her but she insists on dating ugly, abusive, loser, duche bags with no money, no ambition and worst of all no game.

I can't help but notice that your own definition of Alpha Male seems to flipflop depending on the thread. So when I saw THIS thread, I was hoping for some clarity in your perspective? ...but your spelling threw me off - I mistakenly thought you meant you were discussing your 'definition' of Alpha Male, rather than your defenestration (http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/defenestration) of the concept of Alpha Male -

You sure have taken the real meaning and chucked it out the window! ;)


At any rate, the take home message is that "alpha male" is NOT a genetic trait, it is a temporary position among a social hierarchy much like the presidency.The presidency is agreeably a 'temporary position among a social hierarchy' but this has nothing to do with Alphas. Most presidents have been Betas.

Ronald Reagan was an Alpha, Bill Clinton is an Alpha (which explains his inability to keep it in his pants!), George Bush Sr is a Beta, despite having held the U.S. presidency. A Beta (and in GWBush's case, an Omega!) can be groomed to fill the role as president, but that won't make them an Alpha.

A Beta can emulate the best Alpha traits, (which can be highly desirable and worthwhile), and live as an Alpha, freed from the compulsions which Johnny Soporno described here: http://www.venusianarts.com/forum/showpost.php?p=40767&postcount=97

As a matter of fact,

The alpha male is per definition the leader of the tribe. This can definitely change. Actually, by definition, the leader of the tribe is DESCRIBED as the Alpha Male, but might not actually BE a naturally-dominant alpha at all, and if a weaker, less-powerful natural alpha were to appear, he would virtually certainly assume control of the tribe.

The leader of the United States is called the President, just as the leader of a pack of wolves is called the Alpha. The difference is in a democratic society it is possible for a person who is not actually 'presidential material' to become President, (example: George Bush I and II), whereas ONLY in cases where there's a absence of naturally dominant males would a Beta ascend to the Alpha role.

The thing that is important to know is that many of us who may even be social misfits are capable of becoming an alpha male.Just like George Bush became President.


Remember, alpha male is a TEMPORARY SOCIAL POSITION that can be attained through hard work. It is NOT something one is born into - wealth not withstanding.Not so in a monarchy, where the person in the role of Alpha male is a position into which they were born and raised. Again, remember that the leader of any group is by definition "the Alpha" but not necessarilyAn Alpha.


We are all here because each one of us wants to enjoy the fruits of an alpha male position. Much like running for office, the trick to attaining an alpha position is simply to convince the other members of society to accept your status.Almost. Actually, it's not about convincing them of your status, but rather inspiring them to willfully (or begrudgingly) submit to your leadership. Your status is a result of that; not the other way around.

I hope that clears things up for you, and you no longer feel the need to 'incorrect' people.

I give up - I guess there is just no helping some people.

Perhaps I'm wrong. Perhaps some of us see ourselves as having the power to determine our own social standing because we were born alpha males while other see themselves as guys who will have to fake it all their lives because they were born omegas.

Maybe that explains our differing viewpoints.

LOL, I like that.

I do honestly believe that the point I am making is the main underlying message in Mystery's book and those of us would who took the time to read it understand this.

Also, since I have long been a student of human behavior and actually have a degree in biology and know the proper definition of the term "alpha" I thought I would try to help with some words of encouragement by explaining that we all have the ability to become alphas.

Unfortunately, I miss-calculated the level of low self esteem and pessimism I would encounter in doing so.

The definition I gave is the right one. The way most people here define it is a misnomer that is a product of the popular media. This definition is harmful in that it implies that we are born inferior to other men and must strive to catch up to them. In fact, men that come off as alpha have just been raised to be more confident or have been born into greater wealth and privilege and are treated as alphas by society.

There is nothing worse for your inner game than to believe that you were born inferior or subordinate to other men. I am trying to explain that this belief is false and that we all have the power to become alpha.

The problem, in my opinion, is that there are a lot of guys here who simply have low opinions of themselves and see themselves as being inferior by birth.

I have done all the convincing I can do, if people want to insist on being pathetic that is their own prerogative.

For those of you who have not already accepted failure, be rest assured that my definition is the correct one. Alpha male is a position that any man can attain, it is not the luck of the draw. If you want to be alpha, go out and do it.

From a biological perspective, the original poster is correct. However to be accurate, the community has evolved a new and unique concept of what Alpha is. And that's where the disagreement comes in.

So let me clarify and give some brief history for those of you who have not been in the game for a number of years.

The concept of alpha was first used in the community, as an idea from science, with the definition excactly which has been stated. This was in the early days of Mystery, David Shade, RJ, MrSex4uNYC, and such. (You could search the fastseduction archives and find the exact date if one were so inclined). These developing PUA's were determined, and resourceful as hell, drawing a lot about pickup from other areas in life. Animal mating behavior was heavily studied and discussed, and hence the observation that Alpha animals enjoy the greatest sexual access of any single individual.

The original concept was that, females are attracted to alpha males based on the behavioral cues they socially emit. Because society has become so overpopulated relative to our evolutionary conditioning, and since the females observes social cues, one would not have to actually be Alpha in any particular societal hierarchy; they would only have to mimic the behavior traits of one.

However over the course of the next couple years, in the community, the idea of being Alpha changed into something different. It could be synonymous with statements like "Be confident" and "Only the most dominant survive, or even "Just Grab your sack and do it". It was then becoming conceptually an internal state, whose origins of 'mimic those in power', were becoming completely forgotten.

As even more time passed, the community burgeoned (yes I used that word, get a dictionary if you don't know what it means) with flocks of eager men who weren't satisfied with their sexual fill. Negative emotions were carried over from these men's frustrations and injected into the world of pickup artists. No longer were the roots of Alphaness actually remembered. The community was changing.

Being Alpha, and not letting others attain social dominance, even for a moment, was misconstrued to be Beta and even worse taken as representation of one's real status. Field Report's were rife with men trying to prove themselves, as their sole purpose, to prove 'Just How Alpha I Was In Situation X'. Common reponses to these reports were either "Wow dude. You're so Alpha (with Tyler Durden sarcasm laid in deeply here), or "Man, that's so Beta."

As an instructor, its my obligation to empower new minds with knowledge and remind them of the history from which we have come to where we are right now:


So over the course of many years, our concept has evolved. It has gone from a state defined externally by social cues, to internally by behavioral cues.

Neither is right and neither is wrong.

To give you an example of this. Imagine a room full of Alpha males gathered in one place. Tom Cruise, Brett Favre, Donald Trump, John F. Kennedy, James Bond, And Indiania Jones. Obviously this room is fictional, but nonetheless relevant.

Now they are all sitting down at a table enjoying drinks and awaiting dinner. Bond is telling a story of how he saved the world from total annihilation and seduced the king of Somesmallcountry's daughter. He is, at the moment holding court, and his immediate status is reflected by such by those who are socially calibrated.

Does this mean Bond is the Alpha male of the group?

No. They are all Alpha males.

Does this mean Bond is holding court with the other Alpha males?

Yes. For the moment.

Does this make him any more of an Alpha male when he leaves them room?

No. They go back to each of their Alpha Male lives.


If you want to understand Alpha I suggest you do 3 things. First, find men who lead other men and learn to respect and mimic them. Second, find other men who are younger or lesser status and be that first man for them. And third, pickup a copy of Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power and read it at least twice.

Johnny you are too funny. First off, I am older than you so it's kind of funny you calling me kid. Plus, it is abundantly clear that you have no knowledge what so ever on the topic of which you are speaking which is no surprise judging from your clearly fraudulent self professed status as some kind of social dynamics guru. I guess it is no wonder that you need to try to leech off of Mystery's forum to try to divert traffic to your little project.

To be quite honest, I saw your stuff on line and you really come off as a super creepy guy and a total fraud. You may have some of these kids fooled but I do not believe any of your crap for a single second.

I have seen other posts in which you presumed to advise Mystery on his legal matters as if you are a lawyer and he can't afford a real lawyer to handle those things for him. I suppose you are an intellectual property lawyer in your spare time too.

Do all of us a favor and stop feeding everyone here your BS. If you are the big shot guru that you claim to be why don't you stop feeding of Mysety's nuts and start your own forum. I am and always have been successful with women and unlike you I don't need to make a cheesy my space page that say "don't believe me look at these pictures." Good god man you got some drunk bitches in a few bars to pose for pictures with you and you act as if that is proof that you are somebody. I have dozens of pictures of hot women that I really do hang with but unlike you I don't plaster them on a sleazy my space page to prove that I'm not a loser. If that is not the definition of pathetic and DLV I don't know what is. When I see people like you it's no wonder there are guys making you tube videos calling us sleazy. I invite anybody reading these lines to visit your website and see for themselves. But for God sakes I just hope nobody gets the impression that you represent the VA community.

Beware guys, if you come off like this guy you better get used to hearing the words "get lost creep" on a regular basis.

As for the horse shit you are trying to pass off as academic why don't you post up some legitimate sources or STFU.

Oh and with regard to siblings demonstrating different personality traits - science has to this date been unable to determine weather or not such differences are genetic or learned as even siblings raised in the same family are subject to numerous differences in the way they are raised and socialized. It is even suggested that birth order has a large impact on the development of each sibling. Nor have studies of identical twins raised together or apart yielded any substantial information with regard to nature Vs nurture. There are simply too many variables.

For instance, it is common for the youngest of several siblings to demonstrate greater social skills than the others as a result of their need to learn to persuade their older siblings. These social skills can later translate into success in life and alpha status. So your little Godfather example just proves what I've said previously in this post. That is that you typically pull your facts out of your ass and try to pass them off as fact in a pathetic effort to pretend like you are something you are not. Clearly, this is what you are doing here as everything you are saying is quite simply a load of crap.

I invite anybody here to Google nature Vs nurture and you will find that there is no conclusive evidence for either side. The bulk of the evidence at this time suggests that most personality traits are probably learned as personality is generally too complex to be a genetic expression.

If what I'm saying pisses some of you off because you have known this clown for a while that is fine with me. I hope you guys like having smoke blown up your ass.

I'll tell you what, only the most gullible could look at that picture and not immediately notice your transparency and lack of congruence. Save for the one on the far right, just look at the way you guys are dressed. I watched one of your You Tube videos for about 30 seconds until the guy next to you in that picture started speaking with such vulgarity I was was disinclined to listen further. I looked at your website and the first thing I saw was you standing there wearing a vulgar, offensive T shirt coming off like some kind of porn industry reject while trying to act like you are an accomplished PUA with your own field tested material.

You actually have on your website a statement that those who "don't believe me" look at these pictures of me with girls. Who on Earth are you trying to convince with that?

The problem I have with you is not just that you are trying to knock off Mystery's work and sell these kids snake oil - everyone wants to make a buck. But you do it in a manner that in my opinion cheapens the community and makes us all look sleazy by association.

From my point of view, it's also all down to how much power you give away to others. If you don't perceive one as alpha and act like you two are on the same level, then why should others try to convince you that he's the father of all gods. Who's reality do you live in?

Doesn't mean he is friends with them or they actually hang at his club, just that he paid money to sponsor some aspect of their tour.

I can totally understand that, but the way you've been going about it is making you look like a creep to many, if not all. Be open-minded to all methods - I'm not in 100% agreeance with Johnny's teachings, but there is alot of good material he covers that most others do not. His inner game development is great. Seriously, check out some of the posts he has in his signature, and watch his videos - even if you don't completely agree with what you see and hear, you will find some great information that will help your game.

Also I didn't say anything about radical dress. I was commenting on Johnny appearing in that photo looking like Ron Jeremy on the Surreal Life.

Y'know, I also noticed his vague resemblance to Ron Jeremy a while back, but it's nothing for him to be ridiculed over...I mean, he's still getting laid more than most, I'm willing to bet.

I just think it's interesting to see how an alpha male discussion turned out to be a live demonstration of male aggression.
I find it ironic.

I think the next step is to pee on each other's hard drive.



You can train a guy to be aggressive, some guys were born aggressive, but no matter how many bricks you can brake with a high kick, there will always be the retard guy with the zits, 10 miles away with a 3rd generation "fire and forget" heat guided missile system.

My point is, discussing the alpha/beta male is needed as long women are being considered something to conquer, to win over, to rule.
which will ALWAYS put you at a distance from them, mentally and physically.


women are just people - some will like you, some won't.
that's all.

some like the guy with the fast bike and the veins in his neck that breaks the table in half if his baseball team lost, and some will like the skinny weird guy with the original batman comic issue #14, first print, framed.

And you know what?
those 2 girls can be equally hot and deepthroat like pros.




If this peeing contest is regarding the academic territory of seducing women, then bring out your claws,by all means.



By the way I happen to know Mr. Soporno - he happens to actually have all the pussy and knowledge he claims to have.


To sum it all up (in my opinion):

I'm sad that I've had to move this thread to Fight Club, because it WAS a good thread.

I'm also going to add here that Johnny Soporno is a respected member of the community. The fact that he is even pictured with other respected members of the community such as Zan and Steve P should have made him more than credible enough.

If you want to understand Alpha I suggest you do 3 things. First, find men who lead other men and learn to respect and mimic them. Second, find other men who are younger or lesser status and be that first man for them. And third, pickup a copy of Robert Greene's 48 Laws of Power and read it at least twice.

A God among insects is just that, among them, no greater than they.

Just in case you missed it the first time. This was a great point from Doc.

I'm all about the quickening of the spirit. The fastest & most efficient way to gain an experience you desire is to give that experience to another. My re-Versal of, do unto others... G.O.D for some = Gold, Oil & Drugs. I recommend this: Field test g.o.d as giving others divinity.

Johnny S is here for your evolution. That's a rare quality among those of wealth. Johnny is rich with life, i.e. free of all wants; reach for the skeleton key to any remaining dead doors in your mind. Unlock all that stand in the way of you getting your mitts on the parts of his message that you find positive association with. Association is Karma. What we associate with assists in creating us.

This is just another secret behind the secret that should never have been a secret at all. The good of the world may come from a place that is 'hidden' which means you just haven't found it yet. The bad of the world will come from secrets which should not have been secrets. So, science & archeology, good. Powerful ones who gained power by keeping secrets, bad.






Hey it's my first night at Fight Club...

Bill Gates alpha?

Confutatis maledictis, flammis acribus addictis, voca me cum benedictis... Very apt for this thread but the Gates of Bill should open & pay dues to the one who created it .

It was part of a great work mostly adapted from scripture & set to music, part of a certain Serpent king's 'Songs of Lyra'... Okay so I have a all singing & dancing new Vaio with which I can both, get the wild hunt on Safari & get a good Vista with... ceterum censeo Microsoftem delendam esse.

P.S. Quidquid latine dictum, altum videtur.

Now I have to compose myself. Maybe I'll just pose.

The Bringer of Light's call to Heaven: HELLEQUIN REQUIEM
Confutatis maledictis,When the wicked are confounded, Flammis acribus addictis:
Doomed to flames of woe unbounded...
Voca me cum benedictis...
Call me, with Thy Saints surrounded...
Oro supplex et acclinis...
Low I kneel, with heart submission
Cor contritum quasi cinis:
See, like ashes my contrition.
Gere curam mei finis.Help me in my last condition.
Find a Collier of Alexandrian nomenclature. It is your nature... to be divine & seek the truth. Find us, drink from us & thy eternal summer shall not fade.

Dear ADD,

You claim to be a grown man yet my 3 year old cousin is more mature than you! Johnny is a RESPECTED member of the community! WHO ARE YOU?!?

You claim to have always been good with women, yet you post questions about how to handle a cockblock? And complain about always being amoged?

Your new to the community and all of a sudden and all of a sudden your some know it all? And calling Johnny out?
I'm willing to bet my left nut you haven't beded anywhere near as many women as Johnny!! Yet your calling him a fraud? This shit boggles my mind!

So to some up my little love letter... Grow up!
Johnny is a respected guru for a reason!
WHO ARE YOU?!?
Get in the field!
I bet my left nut you haven't bedded as many women as Johnny!
Open your mind, you just might learn something!
And stop being so damn argumentitive!

Love,
Danny

Not from me, Herq; read my posts, and you'll see I have been consistently patient (if patronizing) and non-confrontational since A36DD4ME's first disinformative posts in the Fight Club thread Mimicita started.



I second that motion.

Johnny Soporno
Worthy Playboy

I agree and should have been more specific.

And an insect among gods is, yet still, a god not among them.


The energy of which i speak must be transfered, never created and never destroyed. Thereby alone we are impotent, and to the world inept, unless graced by those who have been graced before. Where did this sacred grace originate, is the unanswerable and irrelevant. The question by which divinity is claimed, is to pass onto to one who is worthy.


Hey it's my first night at Fight Club...

Well that's what you're here for. Because you already know the rules.

Nice to see this thread taking a turn....

Brock and Harlequin:

It is said that we are all gods in potential, that an insect in its true nature is an angel, that the lowest is Buddha in disguise. All are worthy... carrying our divinity in our innermost natures, only to become truly divine once we acknowledge and grasp it for ourselves.

Secrets to the (un)worthy fall on dead ears. Secrets to the awakened set their minds and spirits aflame. The grace spoken of is the seed of awakening that we can give.

But we cannot fully awaken another through our transferred energy, or the radiant grace alone; they must fully awaken into themselves.

P.S. Fuck the rules. All things are possible ;)

See how just a little enlightenment can produce colour in the darkest of places. There are those among us who play not with the emotions of females but on the side of Humanity's team. It is easy to see who these ones are. They do not claim to be holier than thou, they merely encourage us to live in the fullest expression of who we are, the divine majestic self.

And here is my obligatory wordplay: be whole-ly. Awaken & reclaim the true crown of the humble divinity that is worn by all life in its highest vision for itself.
