This criticism generally takes the form of snark and implying that people who proclaim to be sigma males (such as Day himself) are really losers posing as brooding loners. The concept of the sigma male has inevitably invited widespread ridicule from certain sections of the media. They are said to be the only "type" of men who do not respect the Alpha's high social rank, as a matter of course.Ĭoolness is also claimed by Day to be a typical characteristic of sigma males. He further states they are prone to antagonistic social relations with Alpha males. Sigma males are claimed to be very attractive to most women.
Sigma males are further described by Day as being typically talented, highly intelligent, extraordinarily driven but also prone to unusual behavior (which apparently only serves to increase their attractiveness). In line with this general tendency, a reader of his blog presented Neo from The Matrix, Han Solo, and many of Clint Eastwood's various film characters as representing archetypal sigma males.
#SIGMA MALE DEFINITION MOVIE#
Vox Day frequently resorts to movie metaphors to describe the different ranks of male. In his blog posts, Day describes sigma males variously as being " charming psychopaths," "high functioning omega males," and "men who sit outside the hierarchy but are effortlessly at the top of it when they can be bothered to engage with it," whose primary defining characteristics are outsized egos combined with "indifference to the social hierarchy and its rules."
