'He's an alpha male icon': LBC caller backs Gregg Wallace

Vanessa Feltz is surprised by caller Neil's claim that TV presenter Gregg Wallace is a 'hero' for 'facing down' allegations of workplace misconduct for simply 'telling jokes'. #lbc #GregWallace #uknews #news #shorts

Anyone who uses “alpha male” to describe a person needs therapy

I am a 57 year old male from the UK. Greg Wallace does not represent me. Greg Wallace is not an inspiration for me. Greg Wallace is not a role model for me. I don't know what Greg Wallace is, but I don't regard him as alpha at all.

[elainehardman]

"A role model to men." That speaks as to how awful this caller's father must have been if Wallace is someone to look up to. Very sad.

[colinmassey]

If Gregg is a hero and role model, we're all F***ed 😂

[TrothSenchal]

This kind of opinion makes me despair, but it’s useful—I know to avoid anyone claiming to be alpha or sigma.

[scottweir]

As a man I find it very uncomfortable when over men speak like this about women. So can only imagine how a woman would feel I know some it won’t bother

[hansgruber]

It’s sad for kids to going on about “Alpha Males” but a grown man! Have a word.

[romilly]

Men across society are fed up with not being allowed to treat women as they wish?! 😂😂 All hail the social icon who makes his money eating food! He's not trolling .... he's just a tool.

[CJR]

I was driving when I heard it and I genuinely wondered what was happening. It still baffles me that people can use 'alpha male' in a serious conversation without laughing.

[beverlyhitchon]

What an absolute bell end talking about another bell end! ❤

[willma]

How terrifying that someone would hold up a man who disrespects others as a great role model... 🤦🏻‍♀️ Terrifying.

[yt.personal.identification]

Alpha - requires the opinion of others to grant validation.

It is a total contradiction.

[XenonPrimeSBSV]

Anyone who uses the term 'Alpha Male' unironically shouldn't be considered a man, given their thinking is stuck in adolescence.

These are such un-British and ridiculous perspectives on masculinity.

[guyremon]

What an absolute 🔔🔚 both are disgraceful. Gregg Wallace needs to stop shoveling and this caller is deluded.

[Kblay]

The best analogy I've heard regarding the whole 'Alpha', 'Beta' etc male categorisation is that it's basically astrology for incels.

[barrymitchell]

Absolute hero?!! Absolute fantastic role model to men?!! Alpha male?!! He tastes food on a cookery show, and shows how food is made in factories, ffs 😂🤡

[franksidebottom]

Let’s be clear. He hasn’t denied any of it. And being “an entertainer” is no excuse.

[dw-ylln]

Just a bit sad, really. Greg Wallace as your hero.

[jonhalliday]

Jesus Christ, that can’t be a real caller.

[Emelina]

He's got to be trolling. Has to be. Delusional.
