That's the thing though we are only a blip. We have only be able to master radio for 90 years while at the same time we have been able to master the atom for 65 years which is an incredibly short time period. Additionally, considering how many times we have been on the brink of nuclear destruction in that mere 65 years it is not entirely unlikely that if another civilization, on a another world, were in a similar spot they may have very well destroyed themselves before they could have broadcast much into space much less reach an enlightened state of rational thought.
Point two is entirely true.
So maybe 95% of Type 1 civilizations obliterate themselves before being able to reach Type 2? Hmmmm.....good thought.
I think it's true that some dudes may act 'beta' but be more 'alpha' on the inside, and visa versa. You could say the same for women, as far as it goes. Two things, though:
1) I don't really see how pop culture has much, if anything, to do with it.
2) I think it's generally true that the situational differences in any one individual's behavior are underestimated. We all wear different hats at different times, sometimes intentionally, sometimes not. We have tendencies, but they are not absolutes.
Success with women comes down to 95% social skills and about 80% motivation. I dont believe in all these classifications...alpha, beta, gamma. I think a lot of those terms were invented by marketers to sell guys "Solutions" to their problem (Are you a beta male, well buy my product to improve your confidence!). And they were invented by the media, because they need something to talk about.
-But all these alphas and gammas....they have about the same looks, same height plus or minus a few inches, similar backgrounds. You shouldn't need so many distinct classifications for guys that are basically similar.
I would classify as an apathetic...and damn proud of it!
Hate to burst your bubble, but your threads on this forum say otherwise. . .
And since when was being apathetic something to be proud about? Apathetic people are like dust in the wind. . . how can life have meaning when one does not care about anything?
