Becoming An Alpha Male — Lesson One: Getting It.

I guess I’d have to say the number one thing all alpha males have and they have it in spades, is that they look like they’re getting it. Now, I’ll discuss later whether in fact this has anything to do with whether they actually ARE getting it, but that happens to be secondary to LOOKING like you are getting it.

So if you are ever hope to climb up the ladder of the Greek alphabet to Alphadom, all the way from the sad, overpopulated backwaters of Omegaland — you have to start looking like you are getting it. And what does that mean?

Well, let’s start with Pierce Brosnan, or any actor who ever played James Bond, in fact. Guys who look like they are getting it actually look a little post-coital — hair a little messy, eyes a little tired. They look rather casual about it, even disinterested — which is why they DO get it — because they don’t look like they’re begging for it. And women always go for that — it’s the guy who looks like he doesn’t care much if he gets it or not and also looks like he can get it whenever and whereever he wants, that gets you all stirred up — he’s a big arrogant, he makes you slow down and take a second look. You think, “Well, who the hell does he think he is?” And once a woman’s thought that, well, guys you are most decidedly in the drivers seat. She’s going to have that burning need to find out about you.

So think of Bond again. He looks like he’s got something better to do — save the world, hang from a helicopter by one shoe lace, use his remote-control BMW to flatten terrorists — and since he looks like he really doesn’t have time for it, he actually manages to LOOK like he’s getting it big time — and in fact, he DOES get it, whenever he wants. Get it? [Halley’s Comment]
