Regardless of his physique he is a fierce protector of his loved ones, never looking for a fight, but never walking away or cowering when one is impossible to avoid.

He is very in tune with his value system and never intimidated to live by those values.

He knows how to respond to others, not just react to them.

He is very self-disciplined and in control of his temper, never a hot-head.

He is assertive, but never aggressive.

And he is compassionate to the most vulnerable and has respect for all.

Good examples.

Ted Turner and Jane Fonda. (Okay, maybe that one didn't end so well, but they had a good run.)

There are nearly endless examples of non-famous couples who fit this mold, too, though.

One who isn't threatened by a feminist, and needs a bunch of strangers explain it to him?

What makes a male alpha is his ability to influence other males.

I have a good job, body and personality, yet my Alpha status is rather against some feminist ideas.

Could there be a reconciliation here?
Of course it could, and it could fail too. Feminists are not against successful men. Feminists believe society treats women unfairly, and we need to do something about it. They also believe women and should be similar, although some feminists can be hypocritical.

What is much more important is "Do they share the same values." For instance a man who believe in traditional gender roles will not fit well with a feminist.

So are you saying then, that an Alpha male can have a terrible physique - let's say be incredibly small and skinny - would he still really be an Alpha then?

What kind of lady is going to view this guy as leader of the pack?

I think none.

What if these people also happen to be hideously ugly and have very limited sexual skills?
