Being a soldier is no guarantee of alphaness. Take a look at this photo sent in by reader keirin:
This is very beta body language. The ass is clearly turned off by this man’s approach. The leaning in is the obvious tell; he’s all up on that ass while the annoyed ass is about to tip from avoiding his overeager one-arm hug. Nothing will kill a pickup faster than forcing a phony chumminess on an ass. Except ass rape.
Also note his feet and how his toes are pointed inward. The pigeon-toed stance is a leading indicator of awkward betaness. The ass’s hooves, on the other hand, are assertively pointed outward. Powerfully alpha. It’s as if the gender roles are completely reversed, and the ass is the alpha male here. The soldier’s helmet propped at a jaunty tilt is a little bit douchey. This might work on Jersey shore asses, but not Afghani ones. What he’s doing right: his left hand is holding an imaginary drink at the proper, waist-high level. His sunglasses and flak vest are acceptable peacock gear, but his smile is try-hard. I hope he at least approached from the right angle. A surprise approach from behind could result in a swift kick to the nads.
The ass is not smiling and looks pissed at having to pose for a photo with this beta. The ass scans the valley for a Taliban cockblock savior, or perhaps a stray mule. Judging by the colorful blankets and entitlement complex, this ass is an attention whore, and thus not worth anything more than a barnyard pump and dump.
Conclusion: No ass for you! Next!

Body language I think is the sole thing most important of Game. You can do whatever you want, but if you communicate with your body, voice tone and facial expressions that you know what you are doing, and you know how to enjoy everything you do, women´s vajay around you just can´t evade the imminent tingle and gorging with blood, resulting in heat that they have not experienced with any other man.

Again, false betaness like the dude at the summer festival. Judging by the soldier’s dark skin, shitty beard (special forces?), jacked up grill an no weapon (awww) it’s an interpreter.the afghans and their boys and animals only respect straightforward demanding approaches. The lean is an ass shot test. He wants to be sure he won’t be able to buck haji off him like so many little prepubesent boys before. The Pashto translation is roughly, “grab it and stab it”

traditional ethos: soldiers are alphas.
don’t buy that.
for one, soldiers are blind followers. for every one who rises to top ranking status. there are thousands of others who “volunteer” to fill cannon fodder roles.
sure, the confidence resulting from the adrenalin, the physical training, the brotherhood circle and the uniform gives them extra points. but their willingness to submit themselves unquestionably to the authority of other men (sometimes women) shows the weakness of character and detracts big time from the sexiness. a badass gangster out for himself swindling the world often does better with women.

see any scheme under which males who volunteer to do ANY dangerous and difficult jobs requiring physical endurance, strength and visuospatial skills arent considered near apex is ludicrous on its face.

Woops.
Many positive masucline traits are beta.
Alpha traits regard to dominance. Beta traits regard to duty and service.
If you mix traits that regard to duty and service, which are paternal and group oriented, together with bravery, you get basically the same thing as a tigress fighting for her cubs.
It’s admirable, it’s brave, it’s fierce, but it’s not alpha.
If were are going to use words, we need more than just one huge lassoo for a wide net of concepts. Masculine does not mean alpha. Even brave does not mean alpha.
Alpha is ultimately about if you are dominant or subservient. In the context of this blog, it’s if you are dominant over your woman sex and soul.

Army guys (enlisted) are a pretty representative cross section of American society. Most American men are beta, thus most Soldiers are too.
Army guys (officer) are white, college educated and tend to be either very alpha or very beta. Not much middle ground. You have your natural leaders and then your nerds who always fantasized about leading Soldiers.
This only applies the combat arms branches of the Army, don’t know much about anyone else.

Basically, being responsible = bitch boy beta. Dominant people ain’t responsible for anything. (Of course, that just eliminates heroic John Wayne types– tossing them into the unattractive “pussy” beta category, upon which they growl “save yourself from them damn Indians and outlaws, bitch” and leave.) Treat folk who’ll fight and otherwise take risk of life, limb and/or sanity for you like a bitch boy, you won’t have anyone to fight for you any more.
Misandrysts forget that sh*t. Let ’em have the psychos, jihadists, etc. bad boys who turn them on– the burqas, gettin’ the heck beaten out of them, and otherwise treated like crap (tyranny, but who’s counting?) for a while will make ’em remember right quick.
