I am late to this party, but here's my quick 2 cents: I believe, in the long run, it makes no difference if a man is alpha or beta, if a woman is a feminist or traditionalist, or any other combination. These factors are important in the beginning, to faciliate attraction. There may be universal laws, but ultimately we're all individuals and have varied interests/reactions, and our preferences can and do change over time. For the long term, it's all about attitude, the willingness to want to make things work. Why some people remain stuck while others can see a bigger picture, to me, is the real mystery.
