1
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Well, I have known many
alpha males in my life,

2
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
chimpanzee alpha males,

3
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I'm going to talk about
what an alpha male is,

4
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because I think we can all learn
a lot from our close relatives

5
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
where we have alpha males.

6
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And as an example, I want to give you
Amos, a male that I knew

7
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
who was a young male
and he was alpha male,

8
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
he was very popular,

9
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but he got sick

10
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and he lost his position because,
you know, chimpanzee males

11
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they can spot from a mile away
if you are weak

12
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and they went for him,

13
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and he lost his position,
and then he got sicker and sicker

14
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
until at some point

15
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
we had to isolate him.

16
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The group lived on a grassy island,

17
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and we had to isolate him in a cage,

18
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but we cracked open the cage
so that the rest of the chimps

19
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
still had access to him.

20
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And what happened was most touching.

21
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Other chimps would bring food to him,

22
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they would bring wood wool to him,

23
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
which is this thing that they use
to sleep in and build nests out of,

24
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and females would put
the wood wool behind his back.

25
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He was leaning heavily against the wall,

26
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and look, the way we do with pillows
and to patients in a hospital,

27
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they were putting
that stuff behind his back.

28
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And I thought, this is the way
to go for an alpha male.

29
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He was loved and respected,
and everyone was taking care of him,

30
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and this is not always how it goes,

31
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because some males don't answer well
when they lose their position.

32
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So Amos was an example
of a male who was liked as a leader,

33
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I think the term alpha male,

34
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
if you look it up on the internet,

35
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
you will find all these business books
that tell you how to be an alpha male,

36
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and what they mean
is how to beat up others

37
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and beat them over the head
and let them know that you are boss

38
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and don't mess with me and so on.

39
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And basically an alpha male
for them is a bully.

40
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And I really don't like
that kind of description,

41
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because I am actually partly responsible
for the term "alpha male"

42
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because I wrote this book
"Chimpanzee Politics,"

43
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
which was recommended by Newt Gingrich

44
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
to freshmen congressmen.

45
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I don't know what good it did,
but he recommended that book to them,

46
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and after that the term
"alpha male" became very popular.

47
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But I think it is used
in a mischaracterization.

48
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's used in a very superficial way

49
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that doesn't relate to what
a real alpha male is.

50
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And so I'm here to explain what that is.

51
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The term itself goes back
Actually much further.

52
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It goes back to the '40s and '50s,
research on wolves,

53
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and basically the definition
is very simple.

54
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The highest ranking male
is the alpha male.

55
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The highest ranking female
is the alpha female.

56
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Every primate group
has one alpha male, one alpha female,

57
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
not more than that, there's only one.

58
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And I will explain how that goes.

59
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So first, the body language.

60
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What you see here is two male chimpanzees

61
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
who are the same size,

62
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but one is walking upright,
has his hair up,

63
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
has a big rock in his hand,
and he's the alpha male.

64
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The other male is ?? to him,

65
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is being submissive to him
and bowing for him,

66
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and that is the sort of ritual they need
to go through many times a day

67
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in order to have a stable relationship.

68
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'll show you a video from the field.

69
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What you will see here is a female
?? to an alpha male

70
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and you will see how that goes.

71
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The male is approaching,

72
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
she grunts at him,

73
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
he has all his hair up,

74
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and he displays.

75
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I'm actually standing far too close.

76
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
A chimpanzee is far stronger than I am,

77
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I just was not very prudent
this particular video.

78
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So what you saw him do

79
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is he was lifting himself up
and standing on two legs

80
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and putting his arms out.

81
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's called the bipedal swagger.

82
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It's a very common posture
in high-ranking males,

83
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and it's very recognizable
because humans do this kind of stuff.

84
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(Laughter)

85
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Humans do this all the time.

86
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And what I really like
about this particular picture

87
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is the two old guys to the side.

88
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This is very chimpanzee.

89
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
In chimpanzees,

90
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
we have usually old males
who are over the hill

91
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
who cannot be alpha male
themselves anymore,

92
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but they start playing games
and forming coalitions

93
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and behind the backs of others,

94
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and they become extremely influential,
and you may actually have old males

95
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
who are more influential
than the alpha male himself.

96
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Just as an example,

97
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the three males that I
used to work with most

98
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
at the Dutch Zoo long ago,
there where I worked,

99
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and the middle male here
is a 17-year old alpha male.

100
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The male who is grooming
on the side is twice as old

101
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and this old male has made him the leader.

102
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So you can imagine that that old male
has an enormous amount of power,

103
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because he has made
the alpha male alpha male.

104
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The male on the right

105
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is individually the strongest male.

106
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
In captivity, you can test it out,

107
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and you can know that this male
has no trouble with either one.

108
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
He has only trouble
with the combination of the two.

109
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And so the coalition formation
that goes on in chimpanzee society

110
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
makes it much more complex than you think.

111
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
It means, for example,

112
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that the smallest male in a group
can be the alpha male.

113
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You don't need to be
the biggest and strongest male.

114
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The smallest male, if he has
the right friends and keeps them happy,

115
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
or he has female support,

116
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
he can be the alpha male.

117
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So the coalition system
makes everything complex,

118
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I'm always waiting here in the US

119
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
for the primaries,
the end of the primaries,

120
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because that's a moment
where you need to demonstrate unity.

121
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now let me first show you
how the unity is shown in chimpanzees.

122
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
What you see here is two males on the left

123
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
who are standing together.

124
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You also see the big
canine teeth that they have.

125
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And they're standing together and they
demonstrate to the rest of the group,

126
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
"We are together.

127
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We are a unit."

128
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The males on the right
are walking together in synchrony.

129
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's another way of demonstrating
that you are together.

130
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And so demonstrating unity
is extremely important

131
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in a coalition system,

132
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and as I said, in the primaries
always I'm waiting for that moment

133
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because then you have
two members of the same party

134
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
who have been fighting with each other,

135
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and they need to come
together at some moment.

136
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And it leads to very awkward situations.

137
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
People who don't like each other
need to embrace each other

138
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and stand together,

139
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and that's absolutely essential
for the unity of the party,

140
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and if you don't do that,
the party may fall apart.

141
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And so if it doesn't go well,
like in this particular case

142
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(Laughter),

143
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
then the party is in deep doo-doo

144
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because they have not demonstrated unity.

145
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So that's a very important part
of the coalition system,

146
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and that's something that we share
between humans and chimpanzees.

147
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now how do you become an alpha male?

148
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
First of all, you need to be
impressive and intimidating

149
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and demonstrate your vigor on occasion,

150
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and show that you are very strong

151
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and there's all sorts
of ways of doing that.

152
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But other things that you need to do
is you need to be generous.

153
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So, for example, males
who go on a campaign

154
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
to dethrone the leader,

155
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
which may take two or three months

156
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
where they're testing
all the coalitions in the group,

157
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they also become extremely generous.

158
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They share food very easily with everyone.

159
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Or they start to tickle
the babies of the females.

160
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They're normally, male chimpanzees,
not particularly interested in infants,

161
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but when they are campaigning like that,

162
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they get very interested in infants
and they tickle them

163
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and they try to curry favor
with the females.

164
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
(Laughter)

165
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So in humans, of course,

166
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
I am always intrigued by these men
who are candidates

167
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and hold babies up like this.

168
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This is not particularly
something that babies like,

169
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but since it is a signal
to the rest of the world,

170
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they need to hold them in the air.

171
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And I was really intrigued by,

172
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
when we had a female candidate
in the last election,

173
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the way she held babies
was more like this,

174
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
which is what babies really like.

175
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
But she of course didn't need
to send the message

176
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that she could hold a baby
without dropping it,

177
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
which was what the man was doing.

178
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So this is a very common tactic,

179
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and male chimpanzees,
they spend a lot of time

180
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
currying favor with all sorts of parties

181
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
when they are campaigning.

182
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now what are the privileges and the costs

183
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
of being an alpha male?

184
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The biggest privilege is female.

185
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Food is really irrelevant.

186
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Male chimpanzees can go
a week without food

187
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
if there's a female in estrus
and they're sexually interested in her.

188
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Food is secondary to sex,

189
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and so the male chimpanzees --

190
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and we evolutionary biologists,
of course, we have an explanation for this

191
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
is that sex leads to reproduction

192
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and reproductive success
is the measure of evolution.

193
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
That's how everything evolves,

194
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and so if males can enhance
their reproductive success

195
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
by being high ranking,

196
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
you get automatically the ambition
to be high ranking in the males.

197
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So that's the privilege.

198
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The costs, one cost is of course

199
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
that you need to keep your partners happy.

200
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So if you come to power
with the support of an old male,

201
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
you need to let that old male
mate with females.

202
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
If you don't do that, that old male
is going to get mad at you

203
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and you're going to lose him as a partner.

204
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So there's a transaction going on.

205
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
If you become alpha male this way,
you need to keep your partners happy.

206
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And so that's one of the costs.

207
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The second cost is that
everyone wants your position.

208
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Alpha male position
is a very important position,

209
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and everyone wants to take it from you,

210
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and so you constantly
have to watch your back.

211
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
You have to be extremely vigilant.

212
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
For example, you have to disrupt
the coalitions of others,

213
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and that's what male
chimpanzees do quite a bit.

214
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Divide and rule strategies, they have.

215
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And so that's a very stressful situation,
and we actually have data on this.

216
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The data comes from the field,

217
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
from baboons not chimpanzees in this case,

218
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
where they did fecal samples
on the baboons

219
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and they analyzed them
for glucocorticoids,

220
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and what you see here is a graph

221
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
where you see that the local ranking
the male baboon is,

222
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the higher is his cortisol level

223
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in the feces,

224
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but the alpha male, as you see,

225
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
has just as high a level
as the lowest-ranking males,

226
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and so you may think that being alpha male
is nice and dandy and is wonderful,

227
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but it's actually
a very stressful position,

228
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and we can demonstrate
that physiologically.

229
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now, what are the obligations?

230
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And here, for me,
it gets really interesting,

231
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and it deviates very much from
your typical image of the alpha male.

232
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The alpha male
has two sorts of obligations.

233
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
One is to keep the peace in the group.

234
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
We call that the control role,

235
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
to control fights in the group,

236
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and the second is to be the most empathic,

237
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the consoler in chief, basically,
of the nation, so to speak.

238
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So first of all, keeping the peace.

239
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This is a male who stops a fight
between two females.

240
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Two females on the left and the right
have been screaming and yelling

241
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
at each other over food,

242
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because food is very
important for the females,

243
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and so he stops the fight between them
and stands between them like this.

244
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And it's very interesting to me
that alpha males, when they do this,

245
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they become impartial.

246
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They don't support their mom
or their best buddy.

247
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
No, no, they stop fights

248
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and they come up
for the underdog in general.

249
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And this makes them extremely
popular in the group,

250
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because they provide security for
the lowest-ranking members of the group,

251
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and so they become impartial,

252
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
which is an unusual condition
for a chimpanzee to be in,

253
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because they're usually
very fond of their friends and so on,

254
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and with alpha males who are good at this,

255
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they can be very effective
at keeping the peace in the group.

256
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And the second thing they do
is they show empathy for others.

257
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
Now, I do an enormous amount
of research on empathy,

258
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and I don't have time to go into it,

259
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
but empathy is nowadays a topic
that we study in rodents and dogs

260
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and elephants and primates,

261
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
all sorts of animals.

262
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And what you see here is two bonobos.

263
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The one in front

264
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
has been beaten up in a fight.

265
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The one in the back puts
her arms around her and consoles her.

266
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
This is also actually how we measure
empathy in young children,

267
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
by looking at how they respond
to distressed individuals.

268
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And high-ranking males,
they do a lot of this.

269
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
High-ranking males provide
an enormous amount of comfort in the group

270
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and they go to places
where there are earthquakes

271
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
or hurricanes and they provide comfort.

272
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The pope does this.
The presidents do this.

273
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
All the leaders in the world
have to do this job.

274
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The queen does it and so on.

275
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They all have to do this job,

276
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
so providing consolation,
and that's a very important task.

277
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
And males who are good at these two,

278
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
keeping the peace and providing comfort,

279
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they become extremely popular leaders,

280
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and there's actually
some self-interest involved in it.

281
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
They don't do it just for the group,

282
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because it also stabilizes their position.

283
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
The more popular a male
becomes as alpha male,

284
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and the more the rest of them
respects them and looks up to them,

285
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
the better their position is defended

286
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
in case it's going to be
challenged by somebody else,

287
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because then, of course, the whole group
is going to support that male

288
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
because they want to keep
a leader who is good for them.

289
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
So the group is usually very supportive
of males who are good leaders,

290
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and it's not supportive at all of bullies,

291
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
and when bullies lose their position,

292
99:59:59,999 --> 99:59:59,999
they made end up in
a very bad situation there.
