The alpha, beta, omega designations apply to pack/family animals with less intelligence than humans and where there are more than one male in the group. The designation alpha male in modern humans doesn't really apply. A better description would be type A personality. A go getter type, etc.
So, I am that alpha male to my dogs at home. Otherwise, the term just doesn't fit men these days unless you are living in a family group with multiple adult males. In that case, you are a hippy.
