*some doofus invents a two-pole axis to try to clumsily describe all people as being similar to one of two equally admirable yet flawed opposites* A Bigger Doofus: "What if there were a THIRD category that had BOTH sets of advantages and NO flaws? For people like ME"

The overlap of what makes a Sigma male, and what are symptoms of psychopathy is close to 1:1

Basically "Alpha male" = "I have friends because I'm good-looking and cool" "Beta male" = "I have friends because I'm a nice person who tries to help people" "Sigma male" = "I do not have friends"

The bizarre thing about this is how transparently they try to make this sound good and not bad "The sigma combines the alpha's disdain for following orders and trying to please people with the beta's ability to see past silly alpha games based on vain machismo"

I don't even think the Sigma is combining two poles, it's a rationalisation for when you believe in a heirachy of personality traits, and then find your own traits have put you at fucking bottom.

Right, it's trying to make some kind of virtue out of "I'm not joining *either* team" when neither team wanted to pick you
