do you guys think omegaverse is misogynistic

Yeah it's literally just patriarchy 2.0 and it doesn't even try to say anything it's just omg what if a gender was inherently submissive and patite and could have children and also need a dick up their ass once a month isn't that hot   2 reply

Yes,ofc, the whole concept of omegaverse is to inflict patriarchy on man. And somehow it could be a great Idea to denounce sexism and gender norm but the only thing bl author want to do is mpreg and normalizing sa with the pheromones and rut thing. Even gl omegaverse is sexist...   1 reply

I'd argue the fic/prompt that kicked off the concept and most iterations of omegaverse are misogynistic, or more precisely, reinforce heteropatriarchy. but it doesn't automatically have to be. it can also be used to reflect thoughtfully on the status quo, or explore new options like any speculative fiction concept. too bad most creators, especially......   reply

Yes and no. Part of the appeal of omegaverse is that it is a place to explore sexism and that it plays with sexist tropes. So obviously it will have parts that echo misogyny in the real world.
