The Alpha Wan - Does She Really Exist .

Why is it the "Alpha male" but the "Alpha bi*ch"?

Hate language used like that.

Because they are terms used to describe the hierarchy of social mammals, usually dogs or wolves.

Mod: Have you anything to contribute? Because it doesn't look like it.

Isn't "queen bee" the usual term for the alpha male equivalent?

If so, in my experience she absolutely does exist, but like with alpha males, not every social group has one and they don't all have the same kind of relationship to their peers. Like, the hollywood stereotype is of the manipulative and backstabbing woman who gets to welcome in and kick others out of the crew, and thereby attracts a lot of fake friends who just pretend to like her for social reasons - that's definitely something I've seen, but tbh it just as often refers to someone who's outgoing, charismatic, and a "dooer" with regard to actually following through on making plans and organising events etc.

So essentially, the answer is yes, she does, but not necessarily in the stereotypical way - she's always portrayed as an intimidating, two faced, and often downright horrible person in fiction and in stereotype, whereas in reality she's often just a naturally extroverted and charismatic person who others are naturally drawn to. Some of the nicest women I've ever known would fit the description, as opposed to the conniving, "has no real friends, only people she wants to use" type you get in stereotypical stories.

Any woman who tries to change other people or person.

You see the alpha lady has an idea of how things should be and how we should all act.
She'll let you know; how it is,where it's at, and where you gotta be,
She won't ask do you wanna take part she'll just simply inform you of this great competition we're all taking part in! just in case you didn't know

forever trying to control and manipulate

you must stay strong and sharp if the alpha lady is to be defeated

I work in a career dominated by women.

One alpha female comes to mind. Head of her department. Its her way of the high way. Does what she needs to please her bosses and doesn't care that her staff hate her.

My boss isn't an alpha female. A bit weak when it comes to making hard decisions.

It's very hard to find a female that is a good boss and a good people person.
