Quote: Just wanted to add MHO and list the qualities that make an alpha male:
1) Ability to be honest without being brutal. 2) Willing to love with all the depth of his being. 3) Gentle to lesser intellects. 4) Willing to seriously consider others POV, and if necessary integrate them into his own POV. 5) Keeps his anger in check. 6) Exercises integrity at all costs.
Does anyone know a person fitting this description? Any fictional charcters come to mind?
This is my first post; I will reply then go post my own story when I get a few more free seconds. I have lurked for a LONG time.
What fictional character springs to mind that fits your alpha male description?
Atticus Finch, from "To Kill A Mockingbird". I think he personifies all of those qualities.
