Natural Alpha is Arbitrary. TRP Alpha is not.

I've heard a few TRP'ers suggest (insist vociferously) that being alpha is genetic and that some people can never be alpha because they lack the genes.

I submit to you that while Alphaness is arbitrary, your "genetics" really have nothing to do with it.

In fact, Alphas have been so successful fucking bitches throughout our history that we all possess a sufficient enough amount of their genes to be Alpha.

What determines Alpha in a state of nature is random. Here's a few things I've learned from listening to Standford U. lectures on Evolutionary Biology and reading "Outliers" by Malcolm Gladwell and my favorite book, "The Woman Racket" by Steve Moxon.

  1. If a mother is under-nourished in her last trimester of pregnancy the fetus will have a more efficient metabolism and the baby will grow up to pack on pounds with fewer calories consumed.

  2. At age 18 months males begin to form a hierarchy. By 4 they already intuit who is at the top of that hierarchy and if you ask any boy he will also name another boy. Never a girl. By age 18 the hierarchy has become rigid.

  3. What determines your place in the world can be as random as the month you were born. For instance, most of Canadian hockey players are born from January to April. Almost none are born after September. Why? Because the cut off date for applying for hockey is December 31st. Boys born just after this get a year to grow and mature. As a result they are chosen for "special" instruction and therefore get more training and more opportunities. But those born in December are considered to be "undersized" and are passed over. Yet, they could be just as great if they had the same opportunity.

  4. In Kentucky, where I was born and raised, the cutoff for enrollment into Kindergarten is October 1. If you were born after that date you get a whole year to grow, mature, learn, and get bigger. If you think that 1 year extra will give you an advantage in reading, math, and sports then you are absolutely fucking right.

BTW, I was born September 25! Happy (fuck you) Birthday to me! I was always the smallest, slowest, and I struggled in class from High School on up. One more year and no one would have bullied me. One more year and I would have been given more respect, more friends, and more opportunities.

But wait, there's more.

17 of the 25 richest people who EVER lived were born in the 1830's United States. That was just enough time for them to be old enough to take advantage of major changes in the US economy at the end of the Civil War.

They say "hard work" is all you need to be a success, but none of those people would have become so rich without opportunity.

The major tech giants of our time--when were they born? (Gates, Jobs, Wozniak, etc) All born in the 1950's. They were just old enough to be able to take advantage of the new tech but not old enough to be invested in a current tech or for an existing firm.

But was Gates a genius? NO! He got UNLIMITED access to computers at a time when most college computer science professors didn't have unlimited access to computers. He was probably the only kid in the US who had such access and he was able to become an expert long before anyone else could even afford a computer.

It's easy to be the best in the world when no one is actually competing against you. Kind of like this 101 year old dude: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4c2QuonkMtU

How about Jobs? He lived next door to the owner of Hewlett Packard and got FREE computer parts to play with and build his own computers. This at a time when computers cost a fortune!

If not for lucky breaks, Jobs and Gates would have been just ordinary people living mundane lives. They weren't better than everyone else. Sure they worked hard but they had enormous advantages and incentives.

And let me tell you it's easy to "work hard" when you are already winning and getting all the positive reinforcement that being in first provides.

  1. We define Alpha as the top 20%. What if we eliminate that 20%? The next 20% become the Alphas. They will develop the same attitudes and enjoy the same benefits as the previous Alphas.

  2. If we cloned John Cena 1000 time and put him in his own community in 1000 different households what will happen? Are they all going to grow up bad ass? Fuck no. Some will go into math and science, some will join chess club, some will play sports, and some will smoke pot and knock up the town pump.

Males form a hierarchy. Someone wins and someone loses. Most men don't really understand how it works and these days few have a father who can help him navigate the hierarchy so he can be the best he can be.

What is the point of all this? -------> Opportunity.

We each have an opportunity that BP's don't have. They go through life believing feminist bullshit and men are bad and women are virtuous, but we know better.

We understand how the game is played and that gives us a huge advantage.

It takes about 10,000 hours to become an expert. The day you got here is the day you started practicing at something that most people have no idea even exists. We have an entire database of knowledge from those who have come before us to use to our advantage. It would be like if Gates was given a copy of Windows 10 in 1968 instead of buying the operating system from Gary Kildall in 1980. (Kildall was born in 1942. Too early to realize the revolution at hand and probably why he sold the program that made Gates so wealthy).
