An excerpt from the social science bestseller:

Unlike a disturbing amount of what passes for modern science these days, the SSH is not a theory that requires you to take anyone’s word for it. It is an intrinsically objective structure, which, among other things, means your opinion about your own place in the social hierarchy is almost certainly the opinion that matters least. There is no good or bad here, no virtue or vice or morality derived from being prone toward one behavioral pattern instead of another. There is only what happens to be objectively observable in social interactions. That’s all that matters.

This brings me to the single most important piece of advice I can give you before we begin: it serves absolutely no purpose to identify yourself in some manner that you think is better somehow or higher up the hierarchy. You will derive far more benefit from reading this book if you set yourself aside for the time being while you focus on learning the core concepts of the socio-sexual hierarchy and understanding its wide range of applications than you will by folding, spindling, and redefining the concepts in order to persuade yourself that you might be something you’re not.

Remember, absolutely no one cares what you think you are. No one thinks about you anywhere nearly as much as you think about what they might be thinking about you.

Seriously, if you find yourself thinking “yeah, but what am I?” then you are not in the right frame of mind to get the most out of what this book can provide you. Just set yourself aside for the duration. You’ll still be you when you finish. As with most things, you’ve got to learn the material before you can successfully apply it.

There are positives and negatives to every aspect of the hierarchy. Consider the way in which Alphas reliably rule the roost, and yet the world in which they live is one of constant conflict, external focus, and endless status testing. For all that other men envy them, most would actually find the daily life of an Alpha to be exhausting and unpleasant. The Sigma is perceived to be cool, and indeed, his disinterested detachment from normal society has served as the basis for more than a few famous movie icons. But Sigmas usually acquire their outsider status the hard way, as one seldom becomes immune to social pressure by virtue of great popularity in one’s youth.

On the flip-side, even the most socially-challenged Omega possesses two things every Alpha can only envy: complete freedom from social responsibilities and the ability to do whatever he wants whenever he wants to do it without suffering much in the way of interference from others.

The most important thing to keep in mind as you read this book is that you cannot expect to improve your chances of success in the social game of life if you begin by attempting to deceive yourself about where you stand vis-a-vis everyone else around you.
