Stay with her <| sep |> 630 am . I ' ll post my ramen noodles later . 🙃 <| sep |> But for the most part , most men were in a nowin situation . Except a large portion of these ' nowin ' men found a way to win . THAT is Alpha , never accepting a lesser fate than you deserve . The 8020 rule works if the malefemale ratio is 11 . A loophole that would allow more Alphas is if that ratio was skewed . These men made the following choice I ' m either getting what I deserve power , women , social standing , ect or dying . Both outcomes result in a skewed malefemale ratio . A 11 . 2 ratio would mean 30 % of males could be satisfied and considered Alpha . very feasible considering the successes of the Vikings . There is a major difference between being coerced as a peasant into fighting a war you don ' t believe in and voluntarily seeking out your own fortunes . The viking raiders were alpha as fuck . You are born into a society where your sexual success is dependent on your physical and mental aptitude . That type of society would breed an excess of Alphas . Everything from their culture , religion , social structure , environment and genetics supports this notion .
