There are most definitely beta-like wolves running this kind of game. Maybe they are “beta-mimics?” You define the difference in the ability to close. Wolves, close… even if they start out w/ beta-game. That’s the only difference, close rate.

Many wolves also have this “I’m not like the other guy” attitude, and will throw legitimate men under the bus in their efforts to beta-play girls. And I have seen some of the wolves with tremendous success (lays in the 100s… hippie layhounds, that type), as they are actually very alpha (again, defined by their willingness and ability to close) and use beta game to attract those women that are friendliest to that style of game, but then they escalate quickly (and with a lot of skill…).

In some ways I think these wolves are only real hybrid out there — they actually are “sensitive” and “emotional,” and they use that to magnify their alpha potential (not to “nice” themselves into a corner).

Hug Farming is a behavior of the beta male, where he attempts to court girls via his pro-woman/anti-alpha behavior, and get’s “ahhhhh hugs for you, Beta Boy!!!” in return, which validates him, and keeps that behavior in the environment. Classic “white knight” stuff.

Hug farming is an epidemic on the internet.
