The Myth of the Alpha Female

There's no such thing as an Alpha Female.

Hi Rollo, 

I love your books and everything you're about. Thanks so much for the help! Let me cut to the chase.  I got into an argument with my girlfriend's girlfriend.  Keep in mind we fuck, the three of us, all the time, but recently she has been leaning lesbian full-on since she quit drinking. Anyways she is just getting into 48 Laws of Power and Rational Male and is pissed I won't agree with her that woman can be Alpha. I don't believe it. Help me out here! 

A big problem women have is an inability to separate their sexual market value from their personal value or ‘basic human value.’  Virtue is anti-seductive. No guy ‘virtues’ a woman into bed, and while I get pushback for devaluing the importance of virtue occasionally, what I don’t get is any disagreement from men or women on that point. Virtue, intelligence, honor, duty, wisdom, and any number of other esoteric features that would make a man a terrific human being do nothing (or often work against him) for his raw, visceral sexuality that women are aroused by. However, for men, these traits will add to their attractiveness as a long-term mating prospect for women.

In men, affluence, status, intelligence, improvisation, adaptation, creativity, ambition, drive, perseverance, humor, and conventional masculinity make them attractive for a long-term relationship with women. These are attributes that contribute to a man’s sexual market value, but they are incomplete without a raw, visceral physical component. Hypergamy serves two masters, Alpha seed and Beta need – and as such, it hates the one and loves the other depending on what a woman’s most pressing necessity is at that point in her life. Women have an innate, limbic understanding of what makes a man a complete package – a great catch.

Women’s Empowerment conditioning teaches them that what makes a man attractive and what makes his sexual market value appealing to women must necessarily be what makes for her own personal value and sexual market value. This conditioning has convinced generations of women to build a life predicated on a fallacy: 

What makes her a “good person” should necessarily make her attractive and arousing to men. This falsehood is the root of all the gender conflicts and misunderstandings we see around us today.
