When I think of beta males in the church I think of some males who think it is somehow a virtue to take the one down position in their marriage and other responsibilities. They let the women in their lives do everything in the church and family and call it being humble. This is not humility, this is weaknesses. Many men need to stop being in the comfortable "take care of me" position and instead take care of things that need taken care of. Be one with your spouse. Your wife wants you by her side in strength, compassion and love. Rise up O men of God!

When my mother joined the church back in 1981 I asked her what she thought of the church now that she had had a chance to attend a few Sunday services. Her exact quote goes as follows. "There are no men in this church." In the world that my mother grew up in men were required to be leaders. They may be loud (which no male in the church is God forbid) or they may be quiet but a man is a male person who when he walks into a room people know it. When Heck breaks loose (yes I am cleaning that up for your oh-so-gentle ears) he is the person the people look to no matter of position, rank, or calling. I know of many good men (as in males) in the church who lead only because it is a requirement of the calling they hold, but without that calling in place, I would not follow them across the street. A dear friend who used to be my Bishop years ago was faced with a very serious situation, the father of a child who was at an event at the ward building claimed that he was coming to the church to get the child whom he didn't have custody of. The man made it clear that he had no problem using physical force to get his way. My friend asked his counselor well if this guy comes into the building do you want to go low or do you want to go high? The counselor looked at my friend in shock. Saying but this is the House of the Lord. The counselor could not understand that physical force may be needed in a situation such as this. I could go on but if I say anymore this comment will get deleted.

I must admit I clicked on this link reluctantly. I had no problems with anything these brethren said, but some of the questions they recieved and the comments on this thread are certainly very cringe worthy. Its insanity to try to typify anyone anywhere. As the men in the video mentioned, there are so many different people in this church and different brethren will answer the same question differently, as is the case with the women of the church. I just dont understand the point of conversations like these, maybe other than to show, yes we're people too, which can be an important point for many to understand about all people. I agree with someone who said it would be great to have a video about fatherhood and how valuable it is. I loved the last question of this video for that reason.

Being manly doesn't mean that you can bench 200lbs, or that you like sport, or that meat and potatoes is your food of choice. (There is nothing wrong with all of those things) For me, a true man is someone that loves God. When you love God your life lines up with His ways (ways that are just and true). And you become a true man. (Same thing applies as well to women)

Elder Oaks, Elder Bednar, Elder Holland just to name a few alpha males.

Add to that list the guy who should have been called an apostle, Elder Peter Johnson or even super stud Ahmad Corbitt, and a handful of others. I love this church, the more left it swings the less impactful it becomes though. I have two questions for the SU-S crew… What is a man? And, what is a woman?

As a man, I often feel like our needs are completely neglected and we just have a lot of responsibilities and inferior seats at church for reasons I've never understood.

Honestly - I say this without any animosity - I think you guys are missing the point of the whole "alpha vs beta" thing. Look at the commenter who's mother said "there are no men in the church". Most LDS men are weak, and people are noticing. Weak as in feminine, overly agreeable, insecure, volatile, physically undeveloped, etc. I actually saw this trend as a kid, even in my own father. I distanced myself from the church because of it. The "redpill" stuff is society's attempt to explain dynamics between men and women. And a lot of it is 100% correct. Look at any YSA. Most girls will only go for the top dudes, usually in terms of looks or status. Meaning you won't even get a date nowadays unless you set off those attraction cues. I won't go into more because that's not the point of my comment. Society's dating world is falling apart, and unfortunately this includes the church. People are looking for answers. I think we have an opportunity that didn't exist even 10 years ago - to un-learn false ideas we all learned growing up. We can have better lives because of it.

I would say it's a good thing that LDS men aren't going around being abusive and aggressive to try to prove their worth. Thank you, internet.

Being a man, an alpha, has nothing to do with abusive. Aggressive? Absolutely, especially in today’s world.
