I say the same exact thing to my friends who are mesmerized by rich and famous people. Both money and fame are man-made and didn't exist in pre-historic reptile era of the earth.
- em3rgent0rdr 9y agoAlpha males has been a part of animal (including human) psychology for millions of years.
- tomkarlo 9y agoThe concept of "alpha" leaders, especially as derived from wolf pack behavior, has been largely debunked. It was based on faulty research.
- em3rgent0rdr 9y agotell me more. I wasn't really thinking of wolf-pack behavior, but rather most primates.
- Shorel 9y agoThere are still hierarchies. Both male and female hierarchies are present in primates. It's not alpha and the rest, it's the whole alphabet and each level dominates the next. Whenever the hierarchies are unestable primates can behave very violently. Hierarchies preserve status quo and reduce violence. Also, the studies done with Bonobos were flawed as well, because they were only studied in captivity. Bonobos when free are only a bit less aggressive than chimpanzees, and they don't avoid all violence by using sex.
