The centuries long psychological Civil War between men and women are starting to show its results. After decades of pursuing and achieving equality, the so-called women's movement has caused more of a wedge between the sexes as opposed to bringing them closer to together.

Warnung! Dieses Hörbuch ist nichts für Männer, die sich selbst für ein "Alpha-Männchen" halten oder zart besaitet sind. Warum? Weil dieses Hörbuch aufzeigen wird, warum gerade "Alphas", "Hypermännchen", "echte Männer", die Ursache für das immer wiederkehrende Leid von Völkermorden, Kriegen, Zerstörung, Armut, Ungerechtigkeit, Korruption und Wirtschaftskollapsen sind. Genau diese Vorwürfe lassen sogenannte "Hypermännchen" und kritikunfähige "Alphas" erfahrungsgemäß sofort laut aufheulen und reflexartig um sich beißen.

Die Welt befindet sich im Umbruch. Die Unzufriedenheit der Menschen, das kollektive Gefühl von „wir brauchen mehr Gerechtigkeit, Anerkennung, Wertschätzung“ war noch nie so hoch, wie heute. Fast alle Nationen sind ideologisch tief gespalten. Ein Teil der Menschheit will zurück in die Vergangenheit, die andere Hälfte in die Zukunft.

Wohin führt uns das eine und wohin das andere?

Fearless Women tells the story of women who dared to take destiny into their own hands. They were feminists and antifeminists, activists and homemakers, victims of abuse and pathbreaking professionals. Inspired by the nation's ideals and fueled by an unshakeable sense of right and wrong, they wouldn't take no for an answer. In time, they carried the country with them. Elizabeth Cobbs gives voice to fearless women on both sides of the aisle, most of whom considered themselves patriots.

This collection of fresh, bold voices provides rousing support for the belief that women have the power to change the world.

De term 'alfaman' wordt in verschillende contexten vaak verkeerd begrepen, verkeerd voorgesteld en zelfs verguisd. Het wordt in verband gebracht met noties van dominantie, agressie en giftige mannelijkheid.

In deze uitgebreide gids zullen we dieper ingaan op de geschiedenis, psychologie en evolutie van het alfamannelijke archetype.
