The argument could then be "That's socially constructed"
Again, just think about it for 30 seconds. The cost of sex is not necessarily the same for women as it is for men
Women can get pregnant, and they're typically smaller and weaker. Again, not socially constructed. The difference is lower body strength is about 50%, and in upper body it's more like 75% for average men and women
There are many reasons why the majority of rapists are men, and this is one of them

Over the last few decades almost all research studies have found that men are much more eager for casual sex than women are (Oliver & Hyde, 1993; Petersen & Hyde, 2010). This is especially true when it comes to desires for short-term mating with many different sexual partners (Schmitt et al., 2003), and is even more true for wanting to have sex with complete and total strangers (Tappé et al., 2013).
In a classic social psychological experiment from the 1980s, Clark and Hatfield (1989) put the idea of sex differences in consenting to sex with strangers to a real-life test. They had experimental confederates approach college students across various campuses and ask, "I've been noticing you around campus. I find you to be very attractive. Would you go to bed with me tonight?" Around 75 percent of men agreed to have sex with a complete stranger, whereas no women (0 percent) agreed. In terms of effect size, this is one of the largest sex differences ever discovered in psychological science

As I implied earlier, it depends on what you mean by "alpha male"
Sexual selection in humans is primarily determined by the females
That's self-explanatory. Think about it for 30 seconds and you can figure this out
Then the question becomes something like "What is it that women are selecting for?"
Have a look at the Magic Mike films, which made about $289 million at the box office for one example. Sure, some were gay males, but not all obviously. (Then you could ask "What is it about those films that gay men are selecting for?", but that's a separate issue for now)
As for science, Darwin talked about sexual selection. Some of his thoughts are outlined here, along with links to several studies if you're interested: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC2702796/#!po=24.0741

Haha yeah women instigating around 80% of divorces leads to two amusing hypotheses:
- women are overly sensitive
- men are impossible to get along with
.
Like most things, the truth is probably somewhere in the middle

Women select men based on their ability to climb socioeconomic hierarchies, or more specifically on the traits that predict the ability of these men to climb these hierarchies
The correlation between a man having multiple sexual partners and having a high socioeconomic status, relatively speaking, is roughly 0.9 i.e. almost all of it
The term "alpha male" is kind of warped online, but the phenomenon exists in human males

Bit of a generalisation
I'm fortunate enough to have a girlfriend with whom I can share anything and she listens and asks questions and doesn't react in a volatile or mistrustful manner
But yes, I appreciate this isn't necessarily the norm either. I can only speak for myself

Press X to doubt, unless you mean space in the broader sense and not "outer space"
