why bother with titles anymore?

ive got two cents *fishes around, antes up *

i think human beings, as was stated before, pretty much defy classification beyond male/female. anything else is a grey area.

but i also think that a lot of us are kinda social chameleons - to coopt a phrase i've been hearing a lot of lately - and will resort to a 'default' label for ourselves when we feel it will make interaction with others a little more streamlined.

my profile says i'm a dom. blech. boring. and yet it seemed like a lot of people here have a label like that, so in order to not deal with questions i might not feel like answering, or might not actually be able to answer beyond *shrug* (lol) thats what i wrote.

and its honest! ...to a degree. i AM currently and for the forseeable future, a dom.

i don't really like classifications but i have a lot of fun with a system a mentor of mine told me; wolfpack mentality. for example; i'm an alpha male, but i border on beta. there's alpha and then there's ALPHA. a true alpha can have me making calf eyes like a twelve year old girl, yet most men make room when i walk through. with most alphas i'm an equal, with betas i'm in a leadership role, and finally with omegas, judging from the looks, i must be twelve feet tall! lmfao

humans being social animals, and mammals, have a lot of tribal/primal instincts built into our social subconscious. so watching true animal interactions, where there's much more solid research, can give us a lot of clues as to what's going on under all of our conscious interactions.

of course it's as imperfect as anything, and that it applies at all is only the opinion of myself and some of my friends.

but it's amusing at the least.
