If Sex is purely biological, and not performative in anyway, what is meant by Alpha, Sigma and Beta Males?
In: 0
Alpha/beta/sigma/whatever male is purely performative. It’s a way to try to identify yourself as superior to others. If you hear someone talk about themselves or others using this terminology, you should extract yourself from the situation as quickly as possible.
The gender terms are a little complicated for ELI5, but everyone has a gender assigned at birth which corresponds to their genitalia. Not everyone is the same gender as assigned at birth. Agender means the person has no gender at all, while aligender considers something abnormal about their gender expression. There are many other variations.
