The Attracting Women Tip of the Day [AWTD] for April 12th, 2007.  

What are Beta Male Characteristics

One of the core principles to attracting women is to learn how to become an Alpha Male.  By demonstrating this personality, you’ll become a guy who displays confidence in a quiet, but noticeable manner.

By now you’ve probably heard of the Alpha Male.  But there is one problem with this picture…

Since you know that alpha males are the guys who can attract women, how do you know if you’re acting like an alpha or if you’re a beta?

Well it’s simple!

There are certain identifiable characteristics which can quickly identify somebody who is either an alpha or beta male.  By figuring out if you’re showing any of these traits, you’ll able to quickly change them.

For instance you should find out if you display any of these “beta male body language” cues:

1) Nervousness in your hands

What you do with your hands tells people a lot about your personality.  So be sure not to display any beta male signals with your hands.  This can include:
 
* Shredding napkins or playing with items
* Sitting or hiding your hands
* Trembling or nervous energy with your hands
* Playing or twiddling with your fingers
* Biting your fingers or chewing on your fingers

2) Approval seeking

A beta male is somebody who is constantly seeking approval from other people.  He is the guy who tells jokes to get people to like him.  Or he is the guy who works hard to make people like him.  All of his behaviors display a nature to get permission to do ALL things in his life.

3) Following others

The final beta male characteristic is to look to others for guidance and self respect.  In a social setting, he is the guy who is constantly following the trends as a way to fit in and become cool.  In essence, he has no personality of his own.  Instead he looks to his friends and television to define who he is as a guy.

As you can see, there are a lot of traits which can make a guy a beta male.  What’s important is for you to look within yourself and find out if you’re displaying ANY of these characteristics.  If you discover you are, then I recommend you take steps to quickly eradicate them.
