Is someone holding these poor souls hostage and forcing them to be together?

Wait, so it’s like Power Rangers?

Also, why is Gamma after Delta?

You know, the more I think about it, the more I think these manosphere "men" should be put in daycare. They're clearly not mentally old enough to be adults, so maybe making "dude daycares" for them wouldn't be the worst thing on the planet.

It must suck being so insecure.

Why did they flip Gamma and Delta?

[–] Whats_your_reasoning@lemmy.world 25 points 4 days ago* (last edited 4 days ago) (3 children)

Good catch. Though, I'm not surprised that anyone memeing for the manosphere doesn't know the Greek alphabet.

All they really know is that "Beta" comes after "Alpha." And maybe that Pi is in there somewhere.

ETA: Upon further scrutiny, they also put Omega before Sigma, even though there's the phrase, alpha to omega.

Idk what those terms mean but it seems pretty gay to be comparing your boyfriends like that

This list is a total scam, Where are my favorite type of guys? Where is the mellow punk? where is the just a little guy? WHERE IS THE WEIRD UNKLE?! Where is the Gen ex doomer with nice sense of humor?! Where is the closeted Christian who is really kinky in bed?!

they saw all the fun words that queer people have and got jealous

I wonder what an Upsilon male is. The Wikipedia gives us more options than I'd expected.

I imagine a phi male is just a bit out of phase with other guys.

A theta male always figures out his angle of approach before beginning something.

A lambda male fails at predictable intervals.

A mu male is just a guy. It may be mean to say it but he's utterly average.

And of course the omega male gets pregnant but not like in a trans way.

Curious what people suspect the other types of males are like.

Can you explain the omega 🫃?

Maybe the omegas could form a group. Maybe they could call it the omegaverse

[–] Dreaming_Novaling@lemmy.zip 17 points 4 days ago (1 children)

God I want these chuds to continue to get flashbanged by Omegaverse/ABO content. Going to sleep happy tonight knowing a manosphere-bro is about to find an ABO mpreg fanfic about their favorite CEOs written by a single woman in her 30s and just implode at the idea of women writing that stuff. That and the fact that AI will flag terms like "alpha male" as 18+ 🤭

Looks like all you have to do to be an alpha is grow facial hair and wear a suit.

Omegas are Jewish, don’t be antiseptic.

Idk wtf a "gamma male" is but at least they acknowledge men with long hair now.

[–] fmtx@lemmy.blahaj.zone 1 points 2 days ago

Bruce Banner is a gamma male?

[–] ICastFist@programming.dev 8 points 3 days ago

alphas are shitty spy movie villains, betas are school jocks, deltas are average joes, gammas are Kurt Cobain, omegas are school nerds, sigmas are the 90s school troublemaker

I don't see fat sack of shit anywhere, so this clearly isn't all men
