Although male masculinity is associated with health benefits, it is also associated with negative personality traits and behaviors. For example, high-testosterone men are less likely to marry, more likely to divorce and have more marital problems than lower testosterone men (Booth & Dabbs, 1993).
Men with higher testosterone are also less likely to feel a need to respond to infant cries than men with lower testosterone (Fleming, Corter, Stallings & Steiner, 2002). Masculine male faces are also ascribed antisocial traits, such as low warmth, low emotionality, dishonesty, low cooperativeness and poor quality as a parent (Boothroyd, Jones, Burt & Perrett, 2007; Perrett et al., 1998). Masculine men are also perceived to have more interest in short-term than in long-term relationships (Kruger, 2006), and masculine men have more short-term, but not long-term, partners than feminine men do (Rhodes, Simmons & Peters, 2005).
Attraction to masculinity is a function of the tradeoffs between the benefits of greater genetic health and the costs of lower investment in relationships and children (Fink & Penton-Voak, 2002; Gangestad & Simpson, 2000; Little, Jones, Penton-Voak, Burt & Perrett, 2002).
Factors that affect the relative importance of these costs and benefits affect this tradeoff. For example, the benefits of genetic health for offspring can only be attained when women are able to conceive and preferences for masculine traits are accordingly greater when conception risk is high (for reviews, see Fink & Penton-Voak, 2002; Gangestad & Simpson, 2000; Gangestad & Thornhill, 2008; Jones et al., 2008). Additionally, the paternal investment costs associated with partnering with a masculine man are less important in short-term relationships than in long-term relationships. Accordingly, women prefer more masculine men for short-term than for long-term relationships (Burt et al., 2007; Little et al., 2002; Little, Cohen, Jones & Belsky, 2007
Interesting what is the source anon?
Another red pill thread?
But please this time say something we don't know okay? We all know this alpha-high test-bad boy shit
Have a nice day sir. :3
Alpha fux beta bux the research with sources

Old news OP.
What I'm interested in though is alpha vs beta in relation to their mothers.
You have 2 types of losers who live at home as NEETs.
One goes out fucks bitches, gets drunk, does drugs and doesn't respect the household system.
While the other sits in corner, does chores, helps out and tries to make everything work smoothly.
In my experience mothers who got fucked and abandoned by Alpha resent their kids and try everything to break their will to make them into obedient Betas.
Natural Alpha doesn't let that happen though and conflict ensues. My theory therefore is that Alphas (are forced to) hate their mothers, while Betas give up their integrity to appease the Matriarch.

>negative behaviours
>less likely to marry
wow man what a negative
You know, life would be so easy for betas if the ones who start having relationships with women who already have children would just stop doing it.
But I guess thats too much to ask for.
