    meron benefit of being beta -- less stress

    beta meaning you let your wife be a co-equal

    like sa chinese community many of the women are running their husband's business

    there's a guy i know who's always at starbucks banawe

    nakikita ko siya sa umaga

    ako to-go, siya... he's just hanging around

    guess who's at his office? his wife haha

    sarap ng buhay

    HEY dudes, since women live longer, ipasa mo naman sa kanila ang stress para humaba buhay mo

    The Downside Of Being An Alpha Male - Business Insider

    The Downside Of Being An Alpha Male

    What guy doesn't want to be an alpha male? They get all the women, power and money.

    But a recent Princeton University study shows that there's a big price to pay.

    The study, released in the journal Science, evaluated 125 baboons over a decade and found that those at the top of the chain had the highest levels of the stress hormones glucocorticoid and testosterone.

    Alpha males had the burden of fending off other animals, fighting for and guarding female mates, and providing for the rest of the group. Interestingly, the alpha males had the same stress levels as the lowest-ranking members of the pack, reports the New York Times.

    The beta male (or No. 2-ranking primate), on the other hand, didn't have to work as hard, but still had the opportunity to mate -- albeit not with the alpha females, but they got to mate nonetheless. Scientists found their stress levels to be significantly lower.

    "What's cool about this paper is that being an alpha and being a beta are very different experiences physiologically," Stanford neurobiologist Robert Sapolsky (who has done extensive research on the similarities between baboons and humans, but wasn't involved in this particular study) told the Times.

    Years of stress can have major health affects, and is linked to increased risk for heart disease, cancer and a shorter life span.

    i knew dati pa stressful maging alpha

    kung nagustuhan ka ng girl dahil sa pagiging alpha mo, potek you need to keep that up 24/7

    you gotta show the woman you're in charge of everything

    you insulate your woman from the outside world

    lahat ng problema na-encounter sinasarili mo

    dahil alpha ka you don't allow yourself to show weakness

    to your woman ikaw si superman

    pero bp mo 180/100

    It is the man’s role, yes. What are the repercussions if this does happen?

    This is the repercussion (see below)

Takes care of his son, cooks dinner (recipe pa Type na Chicken lÂ’orange), runs the household etc because he has control of his time. HeÂ’s been complaining of his wife bec even during family vacay, boss will call about work. When the son was operated for appendicitis, he was always looking for his dad & not her, which hurt her a lot. Guess what, she got pregnant by..... the Boss! Kaya pala laging may work related event. This naman is an example of both being Alphas. No one would give in. In a relationship kasi, there will always be one more dominant.
    This is such a text book scenario. Normal women would want to be with a guy that is Alpha to them. Look at that woman, you said she is alpha pero naghanap pa rin siya ng MAS alpha sa kanya which is her BOSS - someone with power over her. Your friend kasi, nagpa beta sa relationship nila, parang he took the role of the female.

    BUT there is never an excuse to cheat on her husband. Diring diri ako sa mga babae who cheat on their husbands especially pag may anak na. Instead of focusing their time on their children, they let s3x take over them. I have a feeling ambisyosa at materialistic yung wife ng friend, usually yan ang mold ng mga kilala ko who ended up cheating on their husbands.

    Kaya ako, I'd rather keep waiting for that man who has my respect, my alpha, than settle for just anyone. Please tell me the husband left the wife, he has no self respect if he stayed in that marriage. Once a wife cheats, no win situation na yan, if the husband accepts, the wife will know that she can do whatever hell she wants and get away with it.

    I'd hate to admit that even my close guy friends tell me I could be very stubborn and I always have to get what I want. But when it comes to men that I see as alpha, I do submit. That reinforces my belief talaga if a man wants a woman to be the type na nurturing, submission, caring and INITIATE s3x, he has to earn it (and that's by being alpha - strong, protective and provider) Dad, Kuya, Boss ko, I see as alpha. Pag Alpha, hindi ako sumasagot, Amen lang ako All other guys, I have an opinion :P Tagal ko kasi ina analyse bakit sobra pagka patay na patay ko kay crush e, sobrang alpha kasi niya and reminds me of the men in my family which are my role models. Traditional family ko so our men are alpha types talaga.

    Funny that you mentioned she is ambisyosa & materialistic (in addition, a social climber). A long time ago, long before the incident, she doesnÂ’t really talk to me (age gap). When I casually mentioned to her that their CEO is a very good friend of mine, her eyes lit up & suddenly became sort of close. I told my wife nga I think she is a social climber & a bitch. My friend actually threw her out of the house & their son really hates her. But I beg to disagree that nagpa Beta sya. He just had to do it because the wife is always out. If you look at it, he is a good catch. He has money, he is not selfish, very responsible. He just married the wrong girl.

    When madball said that it is the man’s role to be the alpha, i asked what the repercussions were, because the world is so topsy turvy nowadays. Men want to be women, women want to be men. I know of married couples whose roles were reversed because of differing circumstances. He was terminated & couldn’t land a good job; they were college sweethearts who couldn’t bear separating because he doesn’t have work; she was lucky because her job offered more opportunities than his. These couples share responsibilities instead & they are happy.

    In a relationship kasi, itÂ’s a give & take thing. Some men maybe the head honcho & top dog at work but the house affairs is all the wifeÂ’s because the wife knows how to run the household better. I know a lot of successful men whoÂ’d rather not mess with the household anymore & leaves it with the wife, not because it is how it should be, but because he has other, more important things to take care of. This doesnÂ’t make him the Beta in the relationship, it just makes the relationship easier to manage. All he has to do is provide the moolah.

    Wow really? Consistent kasi sa mga kilala kong women cheaters yung materialistic/social climber, these types of women are very susceptible to cheat because they are drawn to wealth, of course, there will always be another man who is wealthier than the partner. They also tend to spend a lot on making themselves attractive/vain.

    I'm glad your friend threw out his cheating wife, but I really feel sorry for the son, it will have an effect on the child knowing that his Mom is a cheater who got pregnant by her boss. wtf. I suppose the boss is also married? I hope your friend is stern enough not to accept her if she begs to come back.

    Re your friend, kaya ko nasabing beta, kasi he did not put his foot down, instead of telling his wife that she has to do her responsibilities as a wife and mother, he took on her job. How did your friend end up marrying a btch nga ba?

    This is what I don't agree with (role reversal) I believe in traditional rules. I asked my Mom nga why she lets my Dad make all the decisions, and she said "kasi magaling daddy mo" That's the kind of relationship I want But my Mom did say that when it comes to women's stuff, my Dad let's my Mom take over eg curtains, bed sheets, carpet etc. Tama naman na pag dating sa managing the home, sa babae yun. My Dad gives 100% of his corporate salary to my Mom, bahala na Mom ko. Yung other income naman ng Dad ko wala ng pakialam Mom ko how he spends it. These things I only learned about my parents nung adult na ko. hahaha!

    I tend to agree with this. I recall before during my younger years, pag may nililigawan ako, I treat her like a Princess. Hatid-sundo, make myself available to her & go out of my way for her, carry her books or heavy stuff. Any girl would want to be treated this way, like a Princess. Now that IÂ’m with a fantastic woman, I treat her like a Queen, but toned down na because of other responsibilities & issues. Does this make me a Beta or an Omega? I make the big decisions when it comes to kids, investments, house expenses and others, but we discuss these before hand. IÂ’ve met girls naman who are totally into me, who would just follow whatever I want & a couple of girls who want to be the alpha. Those were turn offs for me. Btw, those alpha girls never got married, hahaha

    WHO WEARS THE PANTS?

    A newlywed couple unpacks in their honeymoon suite. The husband takes off his pants. "Put these on," he says to his wife.

    She does, but the pants are nearly twice her size. "There's no way I can wear these. They're too big," she says.

    "Good, now you know who wears the pants in this family."

    Calmly, the wife takes off her panties and gives them to her husband. "Put these on," she commands.

    The husband looks at the small pair of panties and says, "There's no way I can get into these."

    The wife replies, "That's right, and now you know the rules until you change your attitude."

    it's that traditional view -- that men should be sole breadwinners and that a woman's place is in the kitchen -- that drives misogyny

    modern women hate that

    they hate that view that women should just stay home

    naalala ko there was this guy arranging a get-together sa group chat

    he suggested that all the men should sit together to talk about business and the women sit together to talk about kids and stuff

    instant reaction ko sa mind ko "WTF did he just say that? this guy's in trouble"

    and as i expected may babae nag react "what makes you think we aren't interested in talking about business?

    "are you saying wala kami alam sa business?"

    At least may thrill at challenge sa buhay. Feeling the flow, being in control, overcoming hardships and seeing the results - these are much better than stagnating in complacency. Yang stress naman pwedeng mabawasan with a healthy and balanced lifestyle.

    Possible repercussions might be the emasculation of the man and the woman straying from the relationship.
    You see, traditional gender roles have worked throughout the years because it considers the fundamental differences between the two ***es. It is in a man's nature to pursue the masculine path which usually involves becoming stronger, more dominant, more successful while a woman tends to value a different aspect of life which usually revolves around nurturing. For a relationship to reach its full potential, there is a need for polarization. A man can't be in a relationship with a non-submissive woman who constantly challenges his authority because both ***es are simply not wired to compete with each other but to complement each other.

    Now, I'm not saying that reversed roles will not work. It can but the traditional roles are still better.

    Ano bang hindi alpha sa pagiging leader? When I said "take charge", it didn't mean na lahat na lang ng bagay ay proproblemahin ng alpha at siya ang dapat na magdecide. Syempre he has to delegate some of the decision-making on areas where the woman is more knowledgeable.

    Lalo na dahil sa rise ng feminism. Also, millennials. They are 'woke' about these social issues and they have a culture to call out what for them is bullshit when they see it.

    ^^^

    kaya ung traditional male-female roles nawawala na

    there are many many strong females in Ph society

    pinoy women are evolving faster than pinoy men

    madami pinoy men stuck parin sa traditional mentality

    many women now have high paying jobs and when pinoy men are faced with higher earning women nawawala ung pagkalalake
