I know alpha males who love D&D, Star Trek, and World of Warcraft. I know broke alpha males. I know alpha males who are financially supported by their girlfriends. In my adventures as a promiscuous person, I have had the opportunity to observe many men in this category. Nevertheless, it’s not wildly unachievable: it’s not Keith-Richards-level attractiveness, it’s hottest-guy-in-the-room attractiveness. Alpha maledom, as I’m defining it, is a fairly high level of attractiveness for a man. There are some men who are saving themselves for marriage but, if they decided to stop having this goal, could easily have a one-night stand this weekend. (Sorry for the terminology, feminist readers, but I’m trying to talk to the anti-feminists here if this is teeth-grindingly awful, skip ahead to ‘summary’.) I don’t mean that they necessarily go out and have a one-night stand every night: some people don’t want to. If you can’t afford the book, I hope you will find this summary helpful anyway.įor the purposes of this subsection, I will define “alpha male” as a straight man who, if he so chooses, could go out on an ordinary Friday night and, about half the time, find a stranger they find attractive to have a one-night stand with. I cannot summarize an entire book in three thousand words there’s a lot of advice and examples I can’t include, and then you will get Mark Manson’s version which isn’t filtered through my opinions.

If this summary intrigues you, I urge you to buy the book. Many people I know have difficulty finding romantic-sexual partners, and it often causes them a lot of pain.

Although intended for straight men, the vast majority of the advice is useful for people of all genders and sexual orientations.

Models is the single best book I’ve read about finding a romantic-sexual partner.
