i couldn't agree more, makes you question if there's a hidden message like "this is your place no matter what you do" but, maybe i'm just reading too much into it.. As you said, these particular scenes and this story hit home because of the (let's say poorly) ways they were handled..
yeah this story is not one to come back to. It had such great potential the whole idea of the strong willed uke would have been a spring breeze in yaoi. I could see the author trying hard to make this happen, but sadly failed. I can only hope there was someone in place to direct the story the way it was.
Did not like the seme at ALL first the uke said I don't have time for anything because I have a job and school work. So the seme was at first ok just kinda courting him then BOOM a heat happens and rapes and he bites him. Usaly rape scenes don't bother me because it happens so often in yaoi, but this one really hit home. The uke was one of the most rejecting I've seen in yaoi. Saying thing like "No stop!" and pushing and slapping. "No" I see all the time but slapping? Nope the author could've made it a little less rapish? Not only the rape but making him pregnant (I know he didn't need up pregnant but he was ready to give into the system)? I know pregnancy and it's not easy to do the things you like or need to do once you become stuck to the toliet. And it seems like it happens faster too. So him studying and working? Off the picture. The is an omega who is always told "All your ever good for is child brith" so what does the author do? Makes it to where that is all he's good for. At first he seemed like he wanted to be full independent, but because society, family, and now new partner, that made him become a dependent omega. That is what made this horribly sad for me, being a female and poor, to see someone try so hard to get out of social norms only to be thrown right back in it.
All I can say is I hope his sugar daddy will say for the long run (seeing how alpha can leave anytime but only omegas have to only be loyal) and I hope the children won't have the same.
Well one thing I can say was good, what is the f*cking. (︶︿︶)＝凸
