Alpha males certainly exist. Stick a group of guys together and it won't be too long before the one or two emerge as leaders of the group. It doesn't need to be through physicality or intimidation. It just needs to be someone that people turn to to take charge of things.
People who identify themselves as alpha males tend to be insufferable assholes.

Meh as far as I'm concered this whole alpha vs beta male thing is total bulls***. Pretty much its just dickheads trying to justify dickhead behavior. Agreed

Basically, if they're calling themselves an alpha male, they're probably a douchebag masquerading as one.

Sort of, they exist but it's not the same thing as their animal kingdom equivalents.
Like the posts before me said those that are obsessed with being alpha probably aren't.

Alpha males exist, they are called leaders. Not to be confused with the already discussed douchebags. I am an Alpha leader for sure.

I really don't consider myself an alpha male... I like being looked to, but I also enjoy going with the flow.
What I can't stand, is someone who tries to pull alpha male shit on me. I refuse to be forced to take a backseat and would rather give someone control out of respect and being more able to be the leader in that situation... rather than someone new moving in and deciding everyone should follow them just because.
