List Your Alpha Male

November 6th 2006 00:17
Sometimes the simplest posts are the best. Post up who your male idols or role models are and describe some of the features that make them desirable to you. What characteristics make them appealing. They can be real or fictional characters. Celebrities, musicians, politicians, sports personalities go nuts.

In terms of masculinity, I thought the character of Marv in Sin City was a good caricatures of an alpha male. He had that brutishness and total disregard for rules and expectations. Marv is his own man, he decided how, what and when things would be done. He had that real, ‘I don’t give a shit’ sort of attitude which I think is appealing. At the same time he had a strong ethical code. His own well being was pushed aside to avenge the death of his one night stand Goldie.


Marv had the male stride and the heavy muscular frame. So his face could leave a severe acne scarred teen looking like a model, but it did add to the bad boy element of the character. It was a face that had gotten into a few bar room dust-ups and street scraps. Arguments were settled with the traditional, fisty cuffs method.

All in all, I think Marv encompassed the stereotypical elements of the male character very well.

What's with the question mark? No sitting on the fence Cibby. Clint is either an alpha male or he isn't.
