"Human ancestors have left the ocean, developed lungs, vocal cords and many things in between. We have explored continents, built flying machines and some of us even live outside the Earth.

After [the] breeding season, the males are driven out of the colony and die. If we chose to organize society in this 'natural' way, would we be okay with that?" she wondered.
But while categorizing men as a pack of wolves and labeling them with Greek symbols might be archaic (or even dumb), the beauty of such loose definitions is that you can bend them in whatever way you want — there's no academic institution safeguarding it. And judging by its content, the Twitter account 'Sigma Male Activity' is painting a pretty inspiring picture of sigmas.
