There are so many threads about masculinity and being alpha, so I wanted to understand a bit what everyone who run extensively Emperor/Khan/Stark experienced.
I’ll start with my experience:
- Emperor: the classic alpha male: determined, goes for what he wants, doesn’t care much about other people opinions. Reactive when people challenge his position, by dismissing those people. Emperor reality is the only reality. Aggressive when his boundaries are overstepped.
- Khan: there is no right and wrong, it’s all good mentality. Main focus is to have an abundant happy life. Unreactive when people challenge his position, just laugh it off. Patronizing in a charming way when boundaries are overstepped. Not one second of discomfort allowed from external influences.
- Stark: determined, yet open to the world. Regardless of how determined you are, you invest the time to understand other people’s opinions, curious to know all options. You engage in argumentative discussions to come up to a conclusion. Logic, curiosity, and rationale are driving your day to day interactions. Persuasive and unapologetically straightforward when boundaries are overstepped.
