Transcript

A tweet saying "Six Male Personalities Of Modern Men Explained: (which one are you?) Read the thread. " It has a picture of some of these, the first one is "alpha male".It has a cartoonish picture of a guy in a suit. The next is "Beta male". This shows a person wearing a blazer, with a sneer on their face. The one after this is "Delta Male". This shows a guy in a plain white t-shirt. Next is a "Gamma male" It shows a guy in a red-and-black striped tshirt, with long hair. The next one is an "Omega Male" It shows a person with short black hair, glasses and suspenders." The last one is a "Sigma male" It shows a guy with sunglasses and a leather jacket."

You joke, but they literally talk about measuring certain parts of people's faces and have weird terms for certain jaw types/sizes and shit.

It's real fucking weird.

Looks like all you have to do to be an alpha is grow facial hair and wear a suit.

Six personalities of Modern Men?

That sounds less researched than like MBTI.

Why do all look so angry? Like shit, my ex made me angry too with all the blaming me for her affair and shit but like, these guys just look angry for no reason.

alphas are shitty spy movie villains, betas are school jocks, deltas are average joes, gammas are Kurt Cobain, omegas are school nerds, sigmas are the 90s school troublemaker

They all look the same except the Harry Potter type.
