>tfw I know how it is to grow up with a beta male father
So my dad was a blue collar (went to soviet polytech) dude from eastern europe. old-timey alkie, easy to anger, but in general more of an old fashioned dad than an abusive alkie dad. My stepdad was about 10 years younger than him, had a masters, not exactly a beta but definitely kindof a manlet.
Now i don't know about you, but i think i'd rather have a beta dad who could have prepared me for being a good student than an alpha who gives me arbitrary outdated values which fail to improve my condition in the culture i grow up in.
if your dad is both a beta AND a dumbass then that's a different story.
