TL;DR- We cover the definition and determinants for an Unattainable Alpha, the differences between an Unattainable Alpha and a Regular Alpha and how to realistically become an Unattainable Alpha.



"The Unattainable Male"

"In seeking absolute truth we aim at the unattainable and must be content with broken portions." -William Osler



”What is an Unattainable Alpha male?


Well, for starters, I’d like to readdress the Ladder Theory from “The Red Piller’s Guide to Women”:

“In short, the men she chooses to keep ‘within range’ is a strong determinant of what type of men she finds attractive, to what degree and to what end.”

“This ‘range of men’ reveal her required prerequisites for any potential partner; an SMV range under which she’ll categorize all men as alpha, beta, unattainable or unworthy.”

“Using the cellphone tower analogy, if we consider her ideals of attraction as her annual income, she’ll determine her range of attraction by first determining which cellphone towers she can afford, then pick the best option among them.”

…the men she drools over yet can’t obtain are considered “Unattainable” and are above all of her SMV prerequisites.

In short, unattainable men differ from regular Alphas in a selectoral sense. While Alphas upon her Alpha ladder are organized by their degree of "feel-good stimuli provision, Unattainable Alphas are organized her desire of interation with them.

For example, a low-SMV woman will almost always perceive an Enlightened Alpha as Unattainable, meaning that she's likely to many any sacrifice necessary to interact with said Enlightened Alpha in any form.

To better explain how Regular Alphas are placed on a woman's Alpha ladder, let's use another example.

Say Ben and Adam are waiting in line at a club.

While they will both get into the club eventually, Ben is standing 5 people ahead of Adam, and so understandably, Ben will get into the club first.

This is how Regular Alphas are arranged. While a woman may see Adam and Ben as a fair source for sexual “feel-good” stimuli provision, she will bear preference for one over the other. Just as she possesses multiple beta orbiters, she is also prone to possess multiple Alphas in tow.

These Alphas are then arranged by the degree of satiation each provides, distance, physique preferences, frame, etc. which is all catered to her perception of the values of each trait.

Again, in reference to The Ladder Theory:

”The only, truly universally positive traits are those which TRP puts focus on like physique, frame, etc.”

”But even with these traits, the level at which each woman deems positive will differ from woman to woman. For example, in the case of ab’s influence to SMV, Brenda may value abs at (+10) while Barbara values them at (+8) and Marsha at (+16), respectively.”


”But why then does a sense of “Unattainability” even matter if Unattainable Alphas and Regular Alphas both have the propensity of sex with the woman in question?”


Let’s return to the club example.

Both Ben and Adam, while able to enter the club unlike their underage [Beta] or fake ID-wielding [False Alpha] counterparts, they both must wait in line to do so [shit testing, ASD, comfort tests, “INTTOG” i.e. I’m Not That Type of Girl”, etc].

Justin is famous. He arrives late, pulls up in valet and proceeds completely skips the line every time. No matter the time he arrives nor the length of the line, the door is always open to him. He’s even paid, just to arrive and sit up in VIP. His drinks are free and he’s catered to all night.

While Ben, Adam and Justin were all allowed in the club, Justin’s experience vastly differed from Ben or Adam’s. Not only that, instead of being faced with obstacles in order to get inside, he was given incentive through payment.

This is how Unattainable Alphas and regular Alphas differ; an Unattainable Alpha is sexually sought after and incentivized into sex at no expense to himself while a regular Alpha either is faced with waiting, irregular sexual occurrences or shit tests before sexual promiscuity.

But let it be known that appearing Unattainable is not always possible and not all Enlightened Alphas are deemed as such. But why and why not?


”What makes an man Unattainable?”


I stress the word ”perception” fairly often for a reason.

Perception is the basis for personal opinion and personal opinion is one of the main determinants in attraction.

If we’re both ass men, we both perceive asses as a highly positive trait for a woman to have. However, our degree of positivity towards asses will vary subjectively: For me, asses are a (+7) to a woman’s SMV, to you they’re a (+12).

As such, while we can both generally agree that this woman is attractive, you find her more so than me.

An Unattainable Alpha runs tandem to this premise.

Enough positive traits must be present in the Alpha in order to put his SMV higher than she perceives attainable to her –the height point usually being determined by the highest SMV Alpha she’s ever slept with.

In short, Unattainability can never be guaranteed with any particular woman as it is dependent on the woman perceiving the Alpha and not inherently dependent on the Alpha.

How does that help?

The idea isn’t/should never be to appear Unattainable to this woman or that woman; the goal is to increase one’s SMV to the point where being seen as Unattainable is more likely to occur en masse.

Preferences play a factor in attraction and are subjective to the individual, be the traits positive or otherwise.

Some preferences can act against one’s Unattainability, like racial preferences, height preference, age preference, etc. (NOTE: this is not to say they prevent being perceived as Unattainable or Alpha, only that they may act as hindrances).

And preferences differ from woman to woman, making your own SMV the only controllable variable; you can’t force someone into preferring large biceps over abs, so instead, try to possess both.

If abs attracted 1/3 of women, chest another 1/3 and biceps the last 1/3, the man with all three attracts the world.


And once you’ve reached the top 10%, you’d be amazed by what can happen.
