Dystopic - Blog Posts

What I love about Omegaverse is one of the few Dystopia AU where nobody cares about it's dystopic themes.

"Here we have an AU where a complete section of the population dictated by their sex (in most cases completely excluding the real meaning of gender), which is a minority, gets real life mysoginistic treatment at best and is treated like birthing cattle and objects at worst."

The plot? Porn or romance where the main Omega get's with the least or the worst option (depending on the story) without anyone caring about the systematic oppression ever. Like... lmao. Imagine any other dystopy doing this, they would not have managed this far without being dragged by the audience. But people like omegaverse because it allows them to fetishize homosexuality or make trans woman/trans men bottom without actually caring about gender transition. (Then the ones that like Alpha Male × Omega Female... they just want werewolf themes, I guess).

I'm genuinely so interested in the implications of omegaverse society where there is, in universe, a secondary bioessentialist structure applied to every individual, but in our world we know this simply replicates the known bioessentialist structure we already have but specifically in a way that makes men (and particularly gay men who are bottoms) targets of structural misogyny. Like there is so much to say about that. And it fascinates me how much of it comes from people who would otherwise consider themselves strongly opposed to bioessentialism homophobia and misogyny. But they think that Porno Fanfic carries no real implications about their worldviews. Even though the entire fetish has moved past just being a justification for a sex pollen thing and become, as my best friend Wolf put it, "misogynistic and frequently homophobic lego building blocks for people to play with."
