Perfect example of how Alphas are supposed to be.
Alphas are protectors, caregivers, counselors, and dispute arbitrators. Also yes, Alphas are horny mother fuckers too, as is their right.
Alphas only fight when necessary. They don’t seek out fights. Real Alphas build consensus and subs submit control over to the Alpha because they want to and need a leader. Alphas feel supported because their subs want to support their Alpha because their Alpha makes them feel safe. Every one else are just pretenders in Alpha clothing.
Listening to stories widens the imagination; telling them lets us leap over cultural walls, embrace different experiences, feel what others feel. Elif Shafak builds on this simple idea to argue that fiction can overcome identity politics.
