No. An alpha who does not womanize can be a non-womanizing alpha. The terms "alpha" and "womanizer" are not synonymous.

lol but even if he doesn't womanize per se, he's still sexually aggressive.

I've never been with a "bad" man and almost every guy I've been with asked me out - so by your logic - they would be alphas. Although, I don't think that they were necessarily alphas or betas.

At any given time, a man or woman is either an alpha or a beta, yes.
And so people are either alpha/bad or beta/good?

That depends. Are they saying that because they want to be friends, or are they saying that because they want to sleep with the person?

You see earlier you claimed it is not right to befriend someone for the purpose of sleeping with them, and I tend to agree, yet you seem to imply here that it is in fact right.

I think if they are asking you out within a short time of meeting you, yes, that is aggressive behavior. As opposed to just being friends and either it progresses from there or does not.
It is not right to pretend to be friends with someone when you really just want to sleep with them. That is basically lying. If you hit on someone, it is assumed that you think of them in a romantic capacity. You are not lying about your intentions.

Introducing yourself to someone at a bar because you find them attractive is not aggressive behavior.

You keep using that word. I don't think it means what you think it means.

How so? Out of several threads I've commented in, I have brought that up in two or three at most.

Yeah that's two or three too many. And the "nice guy" thread *shudder* is still carrying on with it thanks to you.

Well, it sounds like you definitely prefer alpha behavior. You want the guy to dominate the situation. Betas want it to be more mutual, no leader.

At any given time, sure.

I think it is. In fact the act of going to the bar (presumably looking for sex) is intrinsically aggressive, is it not? You're in a bar, you are reaching out to them because you find them attractive. Non-aggressive would be talking to them about other things, for other purposes, whether or not you find them attractive.

Besides, you can be attracted to someone and have no desire to be in a relationship with them. I probably meet 20+ females every day whom I'm sexually attracted to, but I've met fewer than 6 in my whole life with whom I wanted to share a romantic relationship. I never approached any of them for a date.... I want that to happen more naturally. Like in that movie Divergent that just came out, they never go out on a date but they had a natural progression into a relationship (although I would prefer it take longer than that).
