I was born into a family with 4 sisters.
Two are older than me, two are younger.
What does that say about my own Father?

But whatever, dude. I'm inclined to believe the loud macho-acting poseurs are more likely to be insecure and inconsistent with their supposed alpha dog attitude than the quiet "do the right thing" guys who are true to themselves and don't give a flying f what other men think. Remember - the "alpha/beta male" study took place among captive wolves; male animals that are part of social groups in nature do not act that way, and solitary species certainly don't split into "alphas and betas". Actually, come to think of it, females of solitary species will almost certainly be "alphas" as the tools like Elijah here define the term.
And I think a scientific study into my thesis could probably pass peer review.
