I know, not scientifically real, but you have to admit, there are in fact alpha and beta male folks in the human population, both men and women. We used to call them type A and type B personalities, same difference.

Anyway, I’m in some kinda weird half-and-half place. :) “On the spectrum”, if you will. Dominant in some ways, but not enough to stomp people out of my way, empathetic enough to be seen as a “good guy”. Whatever. I’m just happy I didn’t land on either far side. Can you imagine being a wuss and having dreams of “alpha”? The mind recoils.

  There’s only two of anything if you define broadly enough. There’s only two kinds of people: • those who have passed a kidney stone and those who haven’t • those who currently have a single testicle and those who don’t

    There are two types of people, those who admit they pee in the shower and liars.

    I have a signed document pledging the right testicle of a highschool friend that I technically own and collect upon his death. I don’t know how many testicles I have.
    
    I didn’t make that up for a hypothetical. This is how I live.

Hey, maybe people are not binary and everyone is “on the spectrum”? Maybe that’s why trying to put everyone into A and B boxes doesn’t make a much sense?

Different people have different personalities? That’s how humans work. It’s not neatly categorizable. Not even on a single sliding axis. Multiple sliding axis for different traits is more like it.

Like everyone else then.

Who’s “we”? A quick glance at Wikipedia gives me the impression that it’s the American tobacco industry and “scientists” on their payroll. Hopefully you are not one of them.
