What does being an Alpha mean to you?

I would tell him to just watch people and figure out what's going on. Why is the guy getting rejected getting rejected and why is the guy that gets girls the guy that gets girls. What do they do differently.

In fact pay attention to all social dynamic and figure it out. You don't even need to bother participating in it. Figure it out first.

Also don't shit where you eat.

Realizing the only opinion that truly matters is yours because at the end of the day it's still always going to be you looking back at yourself in the mirror. People judge. It's what we do. I can choose to judge myself based on how other people judge me, or I can judge me based on what I know of myself and how proud I am for coming as far as I have. I choose to validate myself and take my opinions seriously because I have faith that I am looking out for number one. I'm pretty awesome to myself. I love me.

Whether or not anyone else agrees is irrelevant.

Delve.

that's Marc "Animal" MacYoung's hub on Alpha behavior. There is a TON of real world information in there that you want to assimilate before you even attempt to sum up the subject. "me me me" is flat out wrong. "Alpha" simple means first, and the first guy in the group is going to be acting in the group's best interest, otherwise the group will replace him.

Most people are NOT alpha, don't have a group to be first in, and wouldn't act in the best interest of whatever group they're in anyway.

self-confidence, that's it. when you're self-confident you seek validation from no one.

Genuinely not caring what other people think.

Alpha in a nutshell: "me, me, me."

TL;DR: Teach your (future) son to put his own needs above all else. Teach him to build relationships with excellent, strong men and to ignore women and put them in their place effectively. Teach him to study science, art, philosophy, and history. Teach him about MGTOW and support him if he chooses to go that route. Teach him critical thinking skills, how to argue for truth rather than for winning, how to communicate doubt and disagreement, and how to say "no." Teach him to lift weights daily, how to shave, groom himself, dress well, keep immaculate hygiene, and to have worthwhile hobbies (something mechanical). Teach him how to drink properly. Teach him How to Win Friends and Influence People, The 48 Laws of Power, and The Virtue of Selfishness. Teach him how to manage money. Teach him to never take dating advice from women. When he starts asking about sex, point him at resources (e.g., books) on being redpill (Iron John, The Myth of Male Power, The Manipulated Man) and a good lover (be forewarned that most books on sex are written by feminists and he will need to know how to study technique without becoming indoctrinated). Teach him biological imperative, and that males and females are unequal but complimentary. Teach him that women are gatekeepers to sex while men are gatekeepers to relationships. Teach him How to Avoid "Getting Screwed" When Getting Laid. Teach him to watch what they do, not listen to what they say and how to read body language. Teach him to absolutely never get involved with a girl over the Internet.

Teach him that he can do all of the above or just be an arrogant, blowhard prick with nothing to stand on, and it's his choice to make. Teach him that both techniques are effective in drawing women. Teach him that the consequences of being a "bad alpha" is that he will attract a vapid, heartless, thoughtless, self-absorbed, entitled princess with a fantastic body and incredibly good looks that will be the apple of everyone's eye and hurt him in the end (and that these are for fucking, not loving). Teach him that the consequences of being a "good alpha" is that it is astronomically likely that he will never find his ideal mate. Teach him that regardless, women only care about themselves and their offspring and they are incapable of loving men in the way they might expect. But in the end, teach him that he only needs himself: that he should be entirely self-sufficient and not live through other people.

Teach him that no matter which route he might choose, he must never seek the approval of women. Teach him that he should never approach women. Teach him that he needn't suffer being rejected if he puts himself in a position where he never needs to approach (he can instead do the rejecting). Teach him that if he does choose to approach that he should never take rejection personally. Teach him that relationships (or encounters) should be on his terms. Women will flock to him if he has an excellent body, a strong, rational mind, and he has learned to love the only person that can truly love him back: himself. Teach him that attracting women is the same as it is for business associates and money (the latter of which are far more important and worthwhile, anyway). Teach him that the Law of Attraction is bullshit and that he should spend his time getting things done. Teach him that there is no self-help or New Age book that is worthwhile beyond what has been prescribed here.

Personally, I would not explicitly state to or tell my son about TRP or "alpha". Instead, I would lead by example in my interactions with others.

However, from a parenting perspective, it is also critical not to be too alpha with your son, since in most social "tribes" or groups, there is only place for one alpha. This can be seen repeatedly in the animal kingdom. As such, I would be "supportive" and display enough beta tendencies towards my son as to encourage him to become more "alpha". A delicate balance between alpha and beta behaviours must be established in order to maintain his healthy sense of respect towards you.

Being Alpha is having some God damn self respect for yourself to (1) acknowledge your needs and be honest with them (2) acknowledge female needs and be honest with them and (3, the fun part) girls and guys both love a social badass.

Sexually attractive to women. If it gets panties wet, it's alpha regardless of moral or personal biases about what is "right".

Alpha for me is doing what you want and when you want. Careless of the negativity and always a smile towards the positivity. An alpha leaves no room for doubt for there is confidence either through knowledge or experience, or just not giving a fuck about the outcome because he finds the satisfaction in doing what he wants and not worry about "what ifs"
