Alpha Masculinity

This book examines the linguistic and discursive mechanisms that realize the mythological American Alpha Male. Providing an in-depth dissection of corpora from an online socio-commercial community, a pop-psychology guru, and fictional gay erotica, it unravels the ways language, gender, and hegemony play out in this ideological figure of neopositive, essentialist masculinity. Through a detailed, multi-level analysis, Russell shows how the Alpha figure combines elements of dominance, normativity, and androcentrism and how these forces intersect with neoliberal and pseudoscientific discourses to establish a uniquely hybridized male hegemony, one that is familiar to most, but whose internal mechanisms remain largely unquestioned and unexamined. This book will be of interest to academic scholars in sociolinguistics, discourse analysis, cultural studies, and gender and sexualities studies.

From Beta to Alpha: Reclaim Your Masculinity and Become the Confident Leader of the Pack You've Always Wanted to Be. How many romantic dates, job promotions, or hidden dreams have you missed and wasted the opportunity to act on because you were afraid of failing? How many times have you watched someone achieve what you've always wanted and felt that terrible pang of jealousy and self-pity? No one is born confident, assertive, and fearless. Our levels of self-esteem are constantly changing throughout our lives. Numerous factors decide which way the scale will tip--upbringing, physical appearance, and previous experiences, to name a few. But when it comes to confidence and success, the most important, decisive factor is YOU. No one is born confident. But anyone can become confident. The term "Alpha male" has been misused so many times, people now connect it with the image of arrogant, testosterone-fueled bodybuilders. But the real Alpha men are, in reality, nothing like that. They are assertive but kind. Confident, but aware of their flaws. They project masculinity with their actions and words, not muscles. They know how to stand up for themselves without being aggressive. But most importantly, they go straight for what they want. Yes, they sometimes fail, but they stand right up, brush off, and face the next challenge with the same vigor and determination. They were not born like that. They discovered how to become like that. In The Modern Alpha Male, you'll too discover everything they already know, including: How to adopt the traits of real Alpha men and face any situation with confidence and strength Why being "the nice guy" has brought you more damage than good and hindered your confidence The power of assertiveness, and how embracing it can drastically change your romantic and professional life How to use the Law of Attraction to get what you want every time, with only the power of your mind How to reclaim your masculinity, and dominate every other man in the room with nothing but your presence Mistakes you've been unconsciously making that have been undermining your confidence How to build leadership skills and never feel like a submissive Beta again And much more. Being the Alpha male has nothing to do with physical appearance. You don't need huge biceps to get respect in a room or get the girl. Alphas succeed because they know how to succeed. They use their heads, not muscles, to claim what they want. Being an Alpha is a state of mind, and nothing is stopping you to become one yourself.
