    A lack of consistent father figures is contributing. I'm 47 and less than half of my similar aged friends are still married to their first husband, meaning father figures have been dipping in and out of their children's lives. The effect is going to be most pronounced on the sons who not only are not learning masculine traits but, more pressingly, are not being taught the importance of loyalty and family values. A real alpha wolf does not abandon his pack.

      No such thing as an alpha

        Society rests on the shoulders of the human alphas. I resent how it has fallen out of fashion to call the breeding male wolf the “alpha” as this change in lexicon is rooted in the discovery that he does not fight other males to gain dominance. An alpha in my eyes is a strong compassionate leader, ready to defend the weak but not violent.

          Well, I guess with your definition, they do exist. But most people define differently, I think.

          Don’t spread rumours about those you don’t know.

              You have no reason to believe that I am a furry. Furries dress up as technicolour cartoon wolves with big plastic anime-style eyes whilst I feel a deep connection to real wolves. I have no interest in Disney’s fantasy anthropomorphic wolves or dressing up as one.

              I’ve been told by my son before that people will think I’m a furry if I let my wolf side out too much and after much research into them I still don’t understand why they are used as the butt of so many online jokes. The majority of them just seem to enjoy dressing up and some are surprisingly creative in their costume designs.

        I’m not a “furry”, rather I feel a deep connection to wolves and suspect I was one in a past life.
