Ah, but not if Mr Solitary does not seek to dominate the meeting but to treat it as an open and honest forum to reach a fair resolution.
Some of it from Kath.
Lol, tell me about it. Scary or what? | |

If they respect enough they will follow regardless of whether he beckons them or not.
Tis why we have such admiration for the underdog rather than the one thrusting themselves in the limelight..the underdog is stealth like and trustworthy whilst Mr Superiority comes across as blinkered and selfish. | |

I'll go futher and say those who think they are are quite funny to me.
All you have to do is stand, arms folded and watching as they do the 'chest beating' then walk off.
In meetings I meet the type quite often. They try to establish control....
Thereby demonstrating that you don't understand the term 'alpha male'.
I suspected as not.
An 'alpha male' knows he is in that position, not merely thinks he is. 'Control' is already established by him being 'deferred' to, viz:
Definition:
2. dominant man: a man who controls the activities of a group and to whom others defer ( informal ).
When one doesn't understand a term, one cannot discuss its use/application/consequences with any authority. | |

You remind me of The Sun newspaper. the way you use words such as 'admit' when a person has in fact merely said. Or demonstrated, when in fact they've commented an opinion which you have willfully chosen to misunderstand so you can take issue with it in an effort to appear as though you're an 'alpha'
You do make me laugh you know. | |

I try to ensure that the words I use are used correctly, and if ever I misuse one, people are free to point that out. Similarly, if I have misrepresented someone by interpreting a comment in a way that the poster did not intend, then they are free to report me for doing so. The fact that I have never been found to have done by the site speaks volumes.
Don't forget, saying "you accept that.....?" is different to "you accept that......"
When a person 'admits' to something, they have always 'said' it, so I'm not sure of your point.
I'm not sure I understand how one can 'comment an opinion', but if people 'demonstrate' anything, then I'm free to note that they have.
I note also that you weren't able to refute my opinion with regard to your comprehension of the term 'alpha male'.......
so you can take issue with it in an effort to appear as though you're an 'alpha'
Given that I know what the term means, I don't see the connection between correcting the use of others' language with being the dominant male. Perhaps you could explain the connection? | |
