Amusingly, I just created this link to the post that explains it in detail.
It's here:

EDIT: Oops, I didn't see that... AF. Well I would say it's much the same as a TAM, but female. Ultimately, it's about self mastery, self realization and being able to take care of, provide for and do for oneself. Being the best self you can be, and of course... alphas are usually leaders, whether by choice or necessity or simply because others choose to follow their lead.
There is something that need clarification in my mind here. Alpha Female vs Alpha male. I understand that a female can also be an alpha and I have no problem with that. But I understand alpha as a leader, and when a female is a leader she is using her male side. Like when a man is very social, he is using his female side.
So that's where I think the female counter part of alpha male is counter intuitive. If there is someone that is an Alpha Male, if he is dominant, then there is a need for someone that receive on the other end. Like in a company there is a boss and there is the employee.
So ultimately if there is someone dominant, there is someone submissive. Problem is that a lot of people have given a wrong connotation to the word submissive and they see it as weak.
A female goal would go more toward the submissive role, on the receiving hand. Her goal would be more a social role, and if they can't stand the work submissive they can use the term "socially dominant". For men it will be harder to be socially dominant, as men are generally less social than women and women are generally more social, more submissive.
So I have nothing against a women being alpha or dominant. Men can also be social and submissive. We all have a female and male side.
Also their goal would tend to be more about emotional freedom, emotional health. So it would be more similar to Ephra.
So I'm wondering how the AF sub is scripted, is it a more on the leadership part, her male side and more on her female side?
AF is scripted to enhance a woman's leadership qualities and assertiveness, and to respect those who deserve it. There are more than 40 different goals in AF, but those - and sexual freedom from oppression and the ability to act on that freedom without damaging herself - are the main thrust.
There is, as Nox said, not male or female, but Yin and Yang. AF was challenging because women are very different, and I had to spend a lot of time stripping out male bias. But the goals are much the same - it's just a different path to get there.
Freedom, strength, assertiveness, leadership, freedom from toxic emotions, etc.
