7 Most Common Alpha Female Traits

Women are thought of being delicate and emotional creatures. We’re always dramatically crying, unable to stand up for ourselves, and need a man for everything. You know, typical woman things, apparently. You know that this is obviously wrong and as an alpha woman, you roll your eyes at it as you know the typical alpha female traits that define you.

Being an alpha woman isn’t easy as the double standards against you are quite high. If you do whatever you want, you’re wild. If you sleep with more than two men, you’re a slut. Though it may seem easier to be the “delicate and fragile” woman, it’s not in you.

Though alpha women are constantly challenged by men and women who feel threatened by you, push forward. Who else is going to take a stand and represent a strong and capable woman if it’s not you? Exactly.

You may be reading this thinking, “Well, I’m not sure that I am an alpha female.” Listen, if you feel that you’re not, it’s okay. You can work on self-developing into the strong woman you want to be. There’s no deadline to when you have to be a strong woman, it’s something constantly at work. Deep down, you have it in you.

# You know what you want

As an alpha female, you know what you want. Of course, there will be moments where you’re not sure, but then again, you also know what you don’t want. The point is, you have a direction of where you want your life to go and in order to achieve it, you know what will benefit you.

# You ask for what you want

Knowing what you want is one thing. However, asking for it is a completely another thing. It’s not being called ‘bitchy’ which is what many people will call you, it’s called being assertive.

For a man, being assertive is extremely attractive, but for women, it has a somewhat negative association. However, regardless if you’re a man or woman, being assertive means you ask for what you want in order to better your life.

# You’re not focusing your life on finding a man

Of course, everyone wants to be able to find a partner they’re going to be with, it’s completely normal. However, if you want to be a partner to someone, work and develop yourself. The man in your life will come, don’t worry, in the meantime, focus on developing your self-worth.

# You are ambitious

You’re the only person who can make the life you want. As an alpha female, you know this, so, you understand and feel responsible for creating the life you want. You’re not waiting for someone to give you a handout. In fact, you feel the incredible strength in working towards your goal.

# You’re emotional

This is important as many people believe that alpha females are cold, heartless bitches. This isn’t the case. You’re an emotional being, you have feelings. The only difference is that you don’t let anyone use your emotions against you or make you feel that your emotions are wrong. So, if someone’s telling you that you’re too emotional, good.

# You welcome change

Change is going to happen whether you want it to happen or not, this is just a part of life. However, instead of fearing change, you embrace it.

You look at the changing circumstances and decide to use it in order to grow. This is where alpha female traits truly shine. Yes, she may cry or may feel defeated, but she pushes through.

# You take risks

Without risks, you wouldn’t be the alpha female you are. You want to take risks, it pushes you out of your comfort zone and helps you answer questions that you were unsure of. As an alpha female, you want to push yourself and the boundaries that society has built around you.
