So let me explain to the rest of you how it feels to be ordinary. When it comes to both men and women, we ordinary men can sense when a person is superior to us in status (or rank or even virtue), when inferior, and when evenly matched. With women, this is more directly a straight-up matter of relative SMV. With men it’s more complicated, but we can sense it. For instance, in a conference room full of equals and inferiors, we can be loquacious, confident and even dominating. Make us the junior-most person in a room full of senior management or cabinet secretaries, and we get quiet. (I am talking about us ordinary men, not the rest of you, so bear with me.)

The same will happen with women. And it works short term at a party or long term in a relationship. When we feel in our bones that she’s out of our league, we are more tentative and apologetic, less confident, and so on. When we know she is in our league or (especially) a click below, we are diffident, confident, etc.

Ea natura multitudinus est.

So, yes, a man can be “alpha enough for her.” This is why it’s not hopeless for literally every many below the top 20%. Such men are disadvantaged by nature and that natural disadvantage has been compounded by modern convention, but it’s not hopeless. Nor must they necessarily rely on “beta game.” Nor must they become alpha or surrender. I entirely agree that men should self-improve to the extent that they can, especially with regard to fitness, which is a good thing to do anyway. But these threads so often drift down to reductionist binary “alpha or suicide” arguments and/or (also not mutually exclusive) the insistence that only a complete personality transplant can accomplish anything.
