You talk about women a lot? Do you have one? If you don't have a study woman do you have study regular sex partners? Most alpha males I know do not just have a good education or good job. That is all secondary to their intelligence and personality, which tends to attract women and make other things easier for them to achieve.<BR/><BR/>Not having a woman(s) is typically a signal of a beta-male.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-74533872900868946482008-01-29T12:39:00.000-05:002008-01-29T12:39:00.000-05:00here's a start on some guys i don't think fit in y...here's a start on some guys i don't think fit in your categories:<BR/><BR/>"Three months, she call ‘I feel I'm runnin a fever'<BR/>Six months, I'm tellin her I desperately need her<BR/>Nine months, flu-like symptoms when shorty not around<BR/>I need more than to knock it down I'm really tryin to lock it down<BR/>Midnight we hook up and go at it<BR/>Burn a stogue and let her know, sweetheart I got to have it<BR/>She tellin me commitment is somethin she can't manage<BR/>Wake up the next morning, she gone like it was magic" - Mos Def<BR/><BR/>"Check it out, yo, the situation is ill<BR/>Went from lovin' and trustin' one another to just payin' our bills<BR/>From holdin' hands in public to displayin' the grill<BR/>We need a resolution, yo, I'm sayin' for real<BR/>Wanna treat you with the right respect<BR/>Tryin' to play a bigger role than the nigga who just writes the checks<BR/>And standin' at the door, wanderin' from right to left<BR/>Tryin' to decide if it's right to step and just bail with it<BR/>For so long I feel like we tried to gel with it<BR/>And done invested to much to say the hell with it<BR/>2000 miles from home, tryin' to call you<BR/>To tell you 'bout the road and all the presents I bought you<BR/>But tensions in the room everytime that I walk through<BR/>And every other day another argument sparks you<BR/>We don't smile no more and you ain't easy to talk to<BR/>It's funny what you makin' my heart do<BR/>We got to work it out, yo, for real" - Phonte<BR/><BR/>"Yo, yo, check it<BR/>It's important, we communicate<BR/>and tune the fate of this union, to the right pitch<BR/>I never call you my bitch or even my boo<BR/>There's so much in a name and so much more in you<BR/>Few understand the union of woman and man<BR/>And sex and a tingle is where they assumin' it land<BR/>But that's fly by night for you and the sky I write<BR/>For in these cold Chi night's moon, you my light<BR/>If heaven had a height, you would be that tall<BR/>Ghetto to coffee shop, through you I see that all<BR/>Let's stick to understandin and we won't fall<BR/>For better or worse times, I hope to me you call<BR/>So I pray everyday more than anything<BR/>friends will stay as we begin to lay<BR/>this foundation for a family - love ain't simple<BR/>How can it be?

Country music is a mix of all three: trying to charm and bed lots of women, threatening other males with violence (going to jail, etc.), and crying over how bad life is. But good call on gospel music.<BR/><BR/>Obvious78 -- don't sound so down, I'm sure things will pick up for you soon enough!agnostichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12967177967469961883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-82175638547237032402008-01-23T16:25:00.000-05:002008-01-23T16:25:00.000-05:00The loser male, who has no viable strategy but to ...<I>The loser male, who has no viable strategy but to lash out in envy at those who have bettered him. Yeah, some of the artists themselves are more leader / prophet types, but by and large, those who are really into it -- as well as any political / social commentary sub-genre, like the punk band Crass -- are bitter losers. Lighten up, it's just pop music!</I><BR/><BR/>You clearly are a talker, because you like playing nonsense games with words. Loser implies there was a 'game' in which these 'lesser males' had some reasonable, or even poor, chance of winning. I assure you that while most 'bitter losers' don't have any idea just how much things are rigged against them, they are fully aware that America is a rigged, aggressive class-structure. <BR/><BR/>Let's start with one of you own delusions, having gone to a school for rich people. You've made some suave comment about how the graffatti on the school for rich people was less crude than the graffatti on the poor peoples school. Well, maybe if their brains were deliberately put through a meat-grinder, including forced drugging, of course, Mr FancyPants would show more crudeness. And let's not forget the horrific behaviour of teachers cherished in non-rich people schools! According to one ex-teacher, one poor seven year-old said "I am a Loser" after merely one/two years of attack by those teachers. She also reported many other interesting comments the vile animal teachers said directly to students. A slightly smarter seven-year old would think, "she doesn't want to help me, she wants me to fail", thus becoming your stereotypical "bitter loser". Let's throw in some forced humiliation and real physical abuse... and maybe Mr FancyPants would develop some problems to. But, you say with a smile, this isn't DELIBERATE. Or maybe you'll even say that the child can refuse ritalin and god-knows what else, if you feel you can get away with it. I can only answer with a dead-eyed stare.<BR/><BR/>Then there was the housing bubble, a massive wealth transfer from the people without houses to the people with houses. That is, from the young to the old.<BR/><BR/>Then there is, for anyone who has had the fortune to encounter our "free-market" health-care without insurance... or for that matter even those with insurance. I was charged 2000+ dollars for eight stiches. I had to wait over five hours for this questionable service. Of course, you get the dumb-know-it-all-punk look when you ask how much time you have to wait. Or the cost of the 'service'. Oh they have so many super-secrets. And they must have gotten tired of people refusing the unnecessary "treatments" they add on to pad the bill. You know, tetanus vaccination for a dog bite, and IV drip for no reason, and x-ray... because there might be 'bone-fragments'. So now hospitals in my area have established a 'level-of-care' bill. It DOESN'T MATTER NOW if you refuse all the nonsense, they are still going to charge you anyway! It's remarkable that a low-class person would feel bitter over the theft of a months pay by well-off cheats. He had a Game, and he Lost. Because he is a Loser. Not sure what Game actually happened, but some Game must have. <BR/><BR/>He should have had insurance you say with a smile. And he should have gone to a better school. Though how HE could have changed that is a bit odd. And he should have been born earlier to avoid the housing problem, or waited longer to buy than his parents/grandparents.<BR/><BR/>I can only answer with a dead-eyed stare.Obvious78https://www.blogger.com/profile/04416866007228286816noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-19346366.post-54887948692605516022008-01-23T14:47:00.000-05:002008-01-23T14:47:00.000-05:00The monogamous protector types of blacks go into m...The monogamous protector types of blacks go into modern gospel music, which is a pretty big genre within the community, though not popular outside it. They too have their own stock characters that you can recognize pretty well. Most of the males are military or ex-military and work at things like air-con installation or directors of mall security and such like. They tend to be really involved in community organization and always talk about things like "positivity", "education" and "community"(though not really "social activism" per se, as they tend to be socially conservative and heavily involved with churches). A good example of the archetype would be Will Smith's dad. If you're going to be talking about archtypes I think they should be included in the matrix.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
