do you guys think omegaverse is misogynistic
i have seen this discourse a lot now i dont read omegaverse just bc i dont like it (mpreg makes me unbelievably uncomfortable) so i just wanna know what everyone thibks
I think it depends on how wide your understanding is. In our world there are things we do that doesn't really have meaning into it and we just wanna do it but other people labeled it as they see fit. So if you think it's misogynistic the it's misogynistic. You dont need to know what we think because no matter what people say if it is what you think...... 1 reply
why isnt there more wlw omegaverse or reverse hetero ommegaverse. like its obvious that omegaverse supposedly gives each sex a chance at being the other, but they always just dumb it down to a world that seems like couples are the mlm and they are just made to be heteronormative.
like idk i kinda dont like yaoi anymore, the gay men dont feel like...... reply
Does a bear shit in the woods? It absolutely is misogynistic and patriarchal and ukes are stand in for women and anyone who thinks otherwise ie, it's a subversion/examination of the real world set up is delusional in a bad way. Its origin was misogynistic, it was created to be ambiguous enough to carry the space for creating smut, reproductive smut...... reply
It is the same question as, "Is writing misogyny, misogynistic?"
To which, your answer, it is "No, it depends on how and what is being written."
Personally, I don't like mpreg, I like the omegaverse where the men give birth to failed fetuses out of their anus like it's shit and blood spews everywhere in the washroom, aka no birth. 1 reply
I think if you're interested in writing a story with an overarching narrative and themes, the constitution of a genre is irrelevant because it's secondary to what you're trying to achieve. It's a toy, not a rulebook. Subvert, accelerate, deconstruct, it's all a suggestion not an affirmation.

yes but it was originally just part of the worldbuilding of a m/m Supernatural fanfic, became a critique of misogyny, bioessentialism, gender roles, class, and pretty much every issue that intersects with misogyny that can be addressed through non-essay/non-thesis form. but much of that has fallen to the wayside bc it's being applied without social...... reply
I do think that. And,also in most of the bls are misogynistic. They portray girls annoying and stupid. We have a narrative in online that gay men are respectful towards women. It's so dumb. Even when most men are straight and desire women,they hate the idea of feminisms and other things. And,when men are gay,they strongly believe in misogyny cause ...... 2 reply
Yes, but I’ve only ever read one omegaverse story, so I could be wrong. From what I’ve seen, omegaverse reinforces stereotypical gender roles and reduces omegas to their reproductive organs. It reflects patriarchal ideas by tying an individual’s value to reproduction, submission, and usefulness to others, which can also be reflected in the wa...... 2 reply
Yes it is, omegas are based off females, they have wombs and even release breast milk. They're considered weak, have curvy body, and extremely submissive, and I guess periods are too far for them to draw since they decide to replace their monly cycles with fuckass heats. Also everybody seems to hate omegas?? Constantly get slut shammed and is harr...... 1 reply
sometimes but you can generalize that to treatment of yaoi ukes in general. i like when the author goes all in on the omegaverse-misogyny metaphor. like that one by asada nemui where the omega gets a hysterectomy. reply
