The whole idea of Alphas, Betas etc is stupid. It doesn't exist. It doesn't even exist for wolves! It's just nonsense.

I can't believe straight cis men are so brainwashed by patriarchy that they voluntary believe in false hierarchies.

Tell your local budding incel: Wolf packs do NOT have alphas. The entire idea came from scientists who imposed their own ideas of toxic masculinity on animal behavior. All animal communities are inherently cooperative.

If men want to learn the lessons of wolf packs, they should learn the real lessons: Cooperation, tending to the weak and small, showing help and being of service to others.

How many men reading this are so brainwashed by the lifelong propaganda of toxic masculinity that instead of changing their "alpha" ideas because wolves are not like that --- will just look for another kind of animal pack that has alphas? NONE DO. ALL communities are cooperative.
While we're here: Human communities are not like animal communities anyway.

We have the power to reason, the ability to behave morally, opposable thumbs, and advanced civilizations. You don't need animal examples for your behavior. You can just...be human.
I reported on Wall Street for my entire career and here's some perspective: However rich and privileged, those guys are not alphas either. They are HEAVILY dependent on network support within the workplace (fellow bros, various social allies) and at home.
The realnprinciple of animal and human behavior is this: If you cut yourself off from the pack, you will have trouble finding resources. This is why rejection hurts: It activates our ancient fear of being cut from support. For straight men, this means emotional resources too.
Since men are so attached to this idea that they are (predictably) arguing in the replies, here is the science. Please do some reading.

Specifically, please note that wolves do not maintain any kind of permanent social status within the pack.

When wolves choose a mate and breed, they become an alpha couple (alpha male and alpha female) and the subordinates are their *children*, not other adult wolves.
Frans de Waal, the scientist who originated the concept of "alpha males," debunked it and noted that it does not exist. Any so-called "alphas" are dependent upon, and serve, the community they're in.

That concludes today's Men Are Wrong feature, stay tuned for tomorrow's, because men are wrong every damn day.
Great responses from @MyzLilith in the replies, please do read them. (Read up from the bottom)

This is a pretty valiant attempt to defend the "Feminist Glaciology" article, which says conventional wisdom is wrong, and this is a solid piece of scholarship. I'll beg to differ, because I think Jeffery, here, is confusing scholarship with "saying things that seem right".


The article is, at heart, deeply weird, even essentialist. Here, for example, is the claim that proposing climate engineering is a "man" thing. Also a "man" thing: attempting to get distance from a topic, approaching it in a disinterested fashion.


Also a "man" thing—physical courage. (I guess, not quite: physical courage "co-constitutes" masculinist glaciology along with nationalism and colonialism.)


There's criticism of a New York Times article that talks about glaciology adventures, which makes a similar point.


At the heart of this chunk is the claim that glaciology excludes women because of a narrative of scientific objectivity and physical adventure. This is a strong claim! It's not enough to say, hey, sure, sounds good. Is it true?

ज्योतिषाचार्य अक्सर ग्रहों के दुष्प्रभाव के समाधान के लिए मंत्र जप, अनुष्ठान इत्यादि बताते हैं।

व्यक्ति के जन्म के समय ग्रहों की स्थिति ही उसकी कुंडली बन जाती है जैसे कि फ़ोटो खींच लिया हो और एडिट करना सम्भव नही है। इसे ही "लग्न" कुंडली कहते हैं।


लग्न के समय ग्रहों की इस स्थिति से ही जीवन भर आपको किस ग्रह की ऊर्जा कैसे प्रभावित करेगी का निर्धारिण होता है। साथ साथ दशाएँ, गोचर इत्यादि चलते हैं पर लग्न कुंडली का रोल सबसे महत्वपूर्ण है।


पृथ्वी से अरबों खरबों दूर ये ग्रह अपनी ऊर्जा से पृथ्वी/व्यक्ति को प्रभावित करते हैं जैसे हमारे सबसे निकट ग्रह चंद्रमा जोकि जल का कारक है पृथ्वी और शरीर के जलतत्व पर पूर्ण प्रभाव रखता है।
पूर्णिमा में उछाल मारता समुद्र का जल इसकी ऊर्जा के प्रभाव को दिखाता है।


अमावस्या में ऊर्जा का स्तर कम होने पर वही समुद्र शांत होकर पीछे चला जाता है। जिसे ज्वार-भाटा कहते हैं। इसी तरह अन्य ग्रहों की ऊर्जा के प्रभाव होते हैं जिन्हें यहां समझाना संभव नहीं।
चंद्रमा की ये ऊर्जा शरीर को (अगर खराब है) water retention, बैचेनी, नींद न आना आदि लक्षण दिखाती है


मंत्र क्या हैं-
मंत्र इन ऊर्जाओं के सटीक प्रयोग करने के पासवर्ड हैं। जिनके जप से संबंधित ग्रह की ऊर्जा को जातक की ऊर्जा से कनेक्ट करके उन ग्रहों के दुष्प्रभाव को कम किया और शुभ प्रभाव को बढ़ाया जाता है।
