Description

This phrase describes a man who is a 'lone wolf'—successful and self-reliant but existing outside of traditional social hierarchies. While originally part of the 'manosphere' pseudo-science, it has been heavily co-opted by meme culture to ironically or unironically praise stoicism and independence. It is often associated with specific characters like Patrick Bateman or Thomas Shelby in internet edits.

Example

He really thinks he's a sigma male just because he eats lunch alone every day.

That was a total sigma male move to walk away from the argument without saying a word.
