      Erm, no, that was popularized by Millennial PUAs, who are all solidly middle aged now.

        That’s great but hopefully they grew out of it. The incel kids these days still run with it.

          Wait how’d we go from alpha/beta obsessed millennials to incels?

          I thought incels were internet communities that blame women and society for them being permanently single/virgins or something like that.

          And thought the former were the roided bro communities where a sentence isn’t a sentence until it has some version of bro in it. Usually womanizers but as gym rats were also usually appealing enough to women.

          Are these the same groups now? Lol

            The PUA-types and this alpha/beta/sigma nonsense really appeals to the incel crowd. They believe that they can somehow game relationships in order to get sex. Like, they do steps a, b, c–which is the kind of systems PUAs are/were pushing–and you get laid.

            The whole thing is a constellation; I don’t think any of those groups exists in a vacuum, and there’s lots of points where they cross over.
