Wasn't it because it's based on a bullshit study on wolfpack dynamics? (That was then applied to werewolves and shit? And later trickled down into the crazed minds of fanfickers who were already influenced by weird Star Trek horniness? lol).
Omegaverse as an allegory for patriarchy wasn't a factor in it's creation, I think, it was primarly a "ooo...... reply
Bc first of all betas are the "average", they don't have debilitating traits but they dont have top tier traits either.
That being said, alphas are on top bc the same reason men are on top: they consider themselves to be above omegas and not unstable at all, even if theyre unstable "is not their fault, is the omega's" (sounds familiar?)

The reasons alphas are on top is simply because they have the position of 'top' (even when it comes to sex, people kind of look down on those who are bottoms because it's seen as submissive) additionally, according to omegaverse rules, alphas have the best genetics and are supposed to be naturally smarter and good looking. Betas are supposed to be ...... reply
How are alphas praised and omegas discriminated against when they both go into heat/rut, both are equally unstable. I know it is a representation of patriarchy. But I think it would have made more sense if betas were at the top of the society and both alphas and omegas were treated like animals. Because betas are imune to pheromones and they are stable mentally and physically. What are y'alls opinion on this or just tell me any opinion of yours on omegaverse?
(This was just a shower thought y'all. I know omegaverse would have been boring without the alpha omega bs. Was just looking to waste my time)
i personally really like it and think its a fascinating trope... when done right. It's kinda portrayed as the patriarchal system in a sense, alphas are the "men," and thus they're very strong and naturally successful, omegas are the complete opposite. betas exist just to fill the void since both are quite rare secondary "genotype(?)."

Has anyone noticed the huge influx of omegaverse lately? I swear more often than not I’ll click on something and although the premise sounds interesting the alpha and omega thing just throws me off. Like don’t get me wrong I can enjoy a good omegaverse now and again but what does any of these stories have to do with the omegaverse?! Sometimes I...... 1 reply
Alpha, because I go to wars (i play arsenal on roblox), I support my local charity shops ( i talk to men who think they are the most handsome person ever while they aren't), I hold my farts for hours to help the air 2 reply
I'm laughing. I just found there was a case where an author stated they own the omegaverse trope in court. I can't stop smiling and laughing imagining the judge, lawyers learning about omegaverse.
Context: an omegaverse erotica author1 accused another author2 of the same genre of plagiarism or something because they use the same tropes/cliche. Au...... 6 reply
I personally dont like it because I just think it's kinda weird- but also it usually ends up being the rape plot or the accidental pregnancy plot and the relationships tend to be toxic and not a good kinda toxic (If both characters are messed up sometimes they balance each other out) but for me if I see a story with a good discrimination and it hap...... 1 reply
