If it is, it has to do with what? Genetics?
How do I know if I'm alpha male or beta male?

Yes, it is real.

It's a mindset

Just get buff and act like you don't give a fuck.

I'm gonna bite on the assumption that you're young and actually asking rather than just trolling in a sea of trolls.

Yes, according to psychology it IS a thing, but like all areas of that field it needs more research and should not be taken as fact. There are a lot of aspects of our society that are built upon the principles of being an "alpha" - you're more successful than your peers because you've been gifted with strength, beauty or intelligence. But its not some flat you're either alpha or beta - there will be some situations in life where you're going to outright win because you have an advantage and other's you're going to lose because your opponents/peers had that advantage. Its more of a scale.

Not trolling at all.
So a very smart guy, though ugly and even unlucky with women, could be an alpha male?

>How do I know if I'm alpha male or beta male?
if you can't tell which one you are 99% chance it means you're beta.

Women aren't the be all and end all of life. I had shitty luck with girls when I was younger because at that age its a woman's market. As you get older (mid-late twenties) and you get some more real tangible achievements behind you and figure out who you are your life improves. Just because you have bad luck with women doesn't mean you can't lead/inspire others. I knew a guy who could really have a crowd follow him around and do what he said, but he couldn't talk to a girl to save his life.

The more you limit yourself to labels like alpha and beta the more you'll struggle to be you and find what drives you. And that drive is what being "alpha" ultimately boils down to.
