Perhaps, in their world it could have been a requirement but I doubt the writers could think that far to develop the omegaverse society to go into details about laws and requirements when applying to things.
Maybe the writers are set in their minds in keeping it to how our world works, with HIPAA or the ability to deny answering. It may be defined as a medical issue to avoid violating HIPAA and the need to report gender and sex as so
Or its like how our current world allows us to put “deny to answer sex or gender” as an option during applications and work.
Hello, sorry for the late reply. It could be like you said, but the thing is A/B/O has big repercussions if taken lightly. Any small mistake could end up as a big one, and doom the other. Like an Omega forgetting their surpressant then got bitten/raped by a random Alpha at their workplace, or vice versa; as seen in many A/B/O fictions.
So, a person lying about their second gender is endangering their workplace and their colleagues; where individual caution is very much necessary. It can’t be compared as to not putting your first gender/sex on the paper. A/B/O is tied very strongly to their primal instict. Even in a very safe environment, transparency is still very much needed. So, yeah.
I’m just a bit tired of this kind of trope, because a bit of thinking could have strengthen the obvious loophole in the premise. Like I said, for this setting, a Beta being a late bloomer Omega is more logical than an Omega in disguise in a world where A/B/O is already a medical standard like our first gender/sex, and laws are already in place about them. Btw, the authors don’t even need to go into details about laws and such, anyway. It’s just a bit of logical worldbuilding in place.
Sorry, I’m rambling. In the end it’s just a light manga, and I’m not trying to do deep thinking or anything. But, if people are gonna do A/B/O, they better do a bit more woldbuilding than usual for minimum, cause our world are already so complicated about gender and sex, and I can’t imagine A/B/O make anything easier. Lol.
Actually, with Omegaverse, I find it hard to believe that you can lie about your second gender when applying for jobs, especially with corporate jobs, hospitality, retails, etc. Basically, any job which requires you to present yourself in public. Like, don't you need to submit medical certificate certifying you're A/B/O for the formal documents and such?
It's just better to make the MC a Beta, who was a late bloomer Omega, if Omegas are not allowed to work for stable jobs in public in this manga's setting. Anyway, I'm going to still keep reading it, cause' if the story and characters are decent, for me, it's a yes.
