I need one for a new website I am going to work on, but I scoured the 'net, and couldn't find one clear definition. Anyone have any ideas where to look, or where I can get one? <p>Magnus/Matt<br>

Someone that other men in the area defer to, or step aside for, based principally on his power or presence.<br>

And women don't defer to?<br>
<br>
My initial thought was a John Wayne, but when I remembered his roles I tend to want to shoot him in the back when he turns around, so maybe that's not an alpha male example.<br>
<br>
How about Napoleon, Spartacus or Caesar? Someone who makes you believe that they have a goal of yours that only they can achieve. <p>Richard Campbell, Legio XX<br>

I think you would want to shoot a true Alpha in teh back when he turned round but would still be too scared in case he got you first !!!<br>

Speaking of shooting in the back, nothing could be a better contrast in American Western styles than 'Destry Rides Again" vs. the John Wayne type. You may remember that Destry Jr, Jimmy Stewart, arrives as the new deputy sheriff in the lawless town with no guns. He's been built up as the rough tough lawman image of his father. What happened to his father? Shot in the back.<br>
