Not a really serious question, but just something I wanted to get opinions on.
Men singing in church, is it alpha, beta, or neither?
I was at a Christmas event last night and noticed a bunch of guys not singing, while I on the other hand was. Could singing be consider alpha if you are good at it since it means you are comfortable with who you are and don't care what other think? Or is not singing more alpha since it strikes a rebel "I'm my own man" vibe and singing is culturally a feminine attribute thee days. It won't change my habits, but I was just curious.
I suppose the question could be expanded to include all church related activities...

Seriously, look at any lead singer in a band. Alpha the way! Part of being Alpha is being ball-sy and not caring what any body else thinks.
I would say singing tentatively, like you wish you didn't have to would be beta. Signing with some enthusiasm, and even with a half witting smile if you're not that good, and you will probably stand out. Have some fun with it. But don't sit there and half way sing while you're looking down because you think its lame that you're singing. In that case, yeah, just don't sing.
It's Alpha.
Especially if you're the worship leader....
...which if I had known at the time.

He of course knows this about me, so I haven't sung along with anyone but my brothers in years.
So yeah, Strong voice=Alpha.
Singing during corporate worship is definitely Alpha.
How could a man leading his family in worship of the Triune God be anything but Captain behavior?
Is doing alpha just to be alpha rather than it's because of who you are less alpha than doing something naturally?

Seriously, though, @Mona is dead on--a singin man is sexy. A Singin man who'll sing harmony with you is bordering on divine.
(Also, can I just say that I wouldn't blame a man for not singing those "Jesus is my boyfriend" type praise choruses. Dude singing "I want to touch your face"..........meh. But that's just me. I like old fuddy duddy music played with violin and electric bass.)
