Not always true. My wife asks questions like this all the time, in a humorous way. I eventually realized that she's trying to elicit responses that will turn her on. Sometimes women shit test you because they're trying to get sexually aroused.
If my wife asked me, "Me, or winning Wimbledon?", I'd say something like, "First I'd win Wimbledon, then I'd come back with my trophy and money and push you on the bed and fuck you whether you like it or not." I can't promise this would work on Jami, but it would work on my wife.
I thought the Alpha was the guy Dag the Sigma pissed off at the meeting, but he was the Bravo. The Big Cheese was the Alpha. Don’t know if Apex has a wingman Bravo yet.
I was listening to the radio while reading this, and "I Would Walk 500 Miles" by The Proclaimers came on. That must be the most Delta song ever written.
Depends. For an Alpha or Sigma, they'd dismiss her challenge with a greater or lesser degree of impatience and, respectively, indifference. And after a while, she'd know better than to keep challenging him.
A Bravo would be most likely to still remain friendly at the final challenge, and come up with something light-hearted and humorous to respond to it.
Making jokes is good, but it's not confined to only the high status man.
Regarding the SSH, we all accept that it's in everyone's best interest to stay in their lane, accept what you are and stop trying to "rise" in the hierarchy. That's all good and true, but that doesn't mean your forever doomed to be stuck in a restrictive conversational box in dealing with women either.
Alpha Game 101...circa Chateau Heartiste early 2000's: reframe; neg; agree and amplify; humor is chick crack.
All that works for any SSH rank if you learn how it works and develop a sense of delivery and timing in using it suitably tailored to your rank and personality.
Vox's short '4 billion women, one Wimbledon, do the math." contains all of those elements in a quick, concise response.
You don't have to be Sigma or Alpha to use the same elements of Game, you just have to learn how those things will work for you.
I guess this was really the whole idea behind 'fake it til you make it.' No matter what you do, you will always be a gamma/delta/omega/brave etc. No point in trying to pretend your higher status than what you are. But none of that precludes one from learning how higher status men do it and then developing and practicing how to reframe the conversational game from her frame into yours, whatever your rank.
For instance, one possible response to the first question "Me or your tennis racket?" could be to delta sperg out in a humorous way: "With my old Spalding racket, certainly you...but I did just get this brand new Wilson pro. The grip is fantastic, the alloy is lighter and stronger, and the action I get off the multifilament strings is fantastic. The first time I used it in a tournament, I won all my prelim matches and made it to the finals! It's really revolutionized my serve. I can't wait to use it in the next tournament! With that kinda performance, I dunno babe, that's some tough competition for you to go up against." All said with an intently serious expressions suddenly broken with a smirk or a "shit-eating grin" and twinkling eyes.
It's a GAME. No matter our SSH rank, learn the boundaries, tactics and strategies, calibrate it to your rank...then play to have fun.

This is a great observation. When I was learning game two decades ago, I found plenty of low-key stuff that worked well for me as a Delta, but my biggest misfires were often when I'd say something clearly Alpha-coded. They sensed I couldn't walk the talk.
I wish I'd known about the SSH then. But experimentation (i.e. hitting on chicks) was a good way to find out what actions are "in my lane" and which ones I can't pull off.
Even the first question is a red flag. Comparing herself to a hobby or an object is an indicator that you will never be able to be yourself in peace.

This line of questioning is certainly better than: "If I transformed into a pineapple would you still love me?"
I thought the Alpha was the guy Dag the Sigma pissed off at the meeting, but he was the Bravo. The Big Cheese was the Alpha. Don’t know if Apex has a wingman Bravo yet.
You will be mine, like my racket, or my Gucci, or my Wimbledon, except that I shall love you more, and trust you less.
“I love you baby, but not like I love this guitar.”

I was listening to the radio while reading this, and "I Would Walk 500 Miles" by The Proclaimers came on. That must be the most Delta song ever written.
Been a while since we had an SSH music thread!
You kiss better. Gucci, free racket. You at Wimbledon watching me win and kissing the racket.
"Would an high status man not be afraid to answer honestly?"
Stoke is the delta character. The hot seat question would make any delta sweat.
The hot seat question is:
Female Mouse: "Me or that attractive blonde mouse you played tennis with?"
Male Mouse: "Y..you."
Female Mouse: "Why did you hesitate?"
Male Mouse: "I didn't hesitate... Why don't we get some ice cream?"
Female Mouse: "You're dead to me."
Male Mouse: "Where are you going?... going?... gone...
Male Mouse: [[[ I wish I wasn't such a poor liar. ]]]
Jami sitting on his lap would make any Delta sweat.
Good Bravo response. His priority for achieving goal. Her priority for having a high status man
That's not a Bravo response, brah.
Would an high status man not be afraid to answer honestly?
No. Attractive women are everywhere. A high-status man is rare.
Not even a little.
"There are 4 billion women on the planet. There is one Wimbledon. Do the math."
He'd answer w.e he wants.
"You'd want me even more after winning Wimbledon."
Depends. For an Alpha or Sigma, they'd dismiss her challenge with a greater or lesser degree of impatience and, respectively, indifference. And after a while, she'd know better than to keep challenging him.

With a high status man the game will be the other way around.
He would make a good joke and she would understand the subtext = "Wimbledon".
Making jokes is good, but it's not confined to only the high status man.
