This photo of the four remaining couples at a dance marathon was taken circa 1930, in Chicago. Can you spot the alpha?
Right off the bat, it’s not the two fine mate guarding gentlebetas hugging their dance partners from behind. Too protective, and they look like they’re delivering the Heimlich maneuver. If one of those guys instead had his hand cupped over a breast, kneading slowly and deliberately, he’d vault into alpha male consideration.
Number 7 is hovercrotching, a distant cousin to hoverhanding. I know you’re tired, man, but NEVER STOP GRINDING. Also, that pose is Lubio-level GAY.
But number 15 (or 51), he’s our leading alpha male contender. Passed out, from exhaustion or drink? Who cares! Normally it’s easy to be a ZFG alpha while asleep, but this dude is literally off his feet and his Children of the Corn woman is holding him up. That’s how you know a man is alpha; his girl enables his lack of commitment.
Truly, though, the real alpha male in this scene is the guy in the background refusing to participate in the spectacle.

Bonus Spot the Alpha, Ye Olde European Bounder Edition:
This one was primarily included for entertainment purposes, and to remind the sarcastic, Game-hater Poosy Pedestalizers pulling the “durr you’re teaching muh dik to White men” gambit that the fine art of wily seduction has been a storied part of White European history since at least Ovid.
The answer is obvious: The alpha is The Trumpening, front and center. That’s ¡Yeb! in the background, sulking and fiddling with his pocket turtles.
The woman, ofc, is Megyn Kelly, her billowy dress concealing the snail trail she’s leaving on the chair.
Alpha is clearly the dude in the picture on the wall, looking down, ready to come out and give her night terrors when the boys go home
Ghost rape!

Endurance dance contests were populated by out of work men and women. Alpha doesn’t come into consideration there. You have to be on your feet at the end of the contest. The OP photo was taken at the end of the contest. The betas in the background have bucks and aren’t participants.

nah. if the girl wasn’t smitten and wanting to please her man, she’d just let him fall and then bitch at him all night for letting her down and ruining everything. that’s what most, if not all, women today would do. this is a great example of a woman tolerating and picking up the slack for her man because he’s got her hooked.

Just looked at CH’s 2009 post about Corey Worthington. I was never that cool, but I did set my family’s house on fire because I was having bottle rocket wars with friends. And I did wreck my mother’s car because I ran over large rocks when I was driving recklessly on a date. Wasted my mother’s money playing foosball and bridge and partying at college. I was a little shit growing up.
I’ve always done what I wanted and didn’t much care about consequences. I visited an ex when I was in town even after I was married. Mrs. Gamer wasn’t too pleased and I was dumb enough to tell her, lol. I’ve hitched hundreds of miles for lots of dumb reasons. Just because.

I posted last week about a HB8 I was gaming, seemed to be going well, then she insulted me and I peaced out.
Heard from her yesterday out of the blue and she invited me over. I thought hey, now that I know when to walk away and not try so hard, maybe I am finally getting somewhere.
Turned out she needed help with something. I figured maybe that was just her excuse to get me in the door. Nope. She got what she needed, then spurned any further time together and wished me a pleasant evening.
Seems my beta must still be showing. Well, back to the drawing board. Sheesh.

Speaking of alpha vs beta, Trump calling Rubio a “choker” is brilliant (especially since he initially misspelled it, more of that ZFG attitude). Rubio’s already the most effeminate candidate, and “choker” brings to mind sexual deviance. MEANWHILE Trump retains plausible deniability because his use of the word choker was appropriate. I’ve seen at least 3 articles today on how Rubio is actually gay.

The look of the woman holding the drunken man (“exhaustion”? doubtful) says a lot. “Shameless photographer, how dare you take pictures of us right now, when our righteous men are in their vulnerable photographic state?” A quality man back then would have had a quality woman (on average) that sneered at a slime-bag holding a camera at a genuinely “social” event. Oh how the world has changed…
