I'm AYRT, btw. And don't get me wrong, I don't think there's anything wrong with exploring gender norms in a fantasy setting, with a sub-caste of men in place of women. It simply doesn't appeal to me to see these gender norms played out. And sure, there's a tiny handful of a/a and o/o fics, but they're an extreme minority, usually in fandoms that I'm not interested in.

Adding to this: I guess the reason it's so frustrating to em is because I would love all of those physical aspects of A/B/O, if they weren't accompanied by a social hierarchy that's hard to distinguish from that in Handmaid's Tale, or real world sexism. I would love the heats, I would love the knotting, I would love the D/s, I would even tolerate mpreg, but it's the idea that someone is born into a society with a biologically pre-determined "womanly" role and it's constantly reminded to us that they are forced into this box, that's just extremely triggering to me. I read m/m to escape that gender-based oppression in sex. To imagine a situation where a partner is subbing because they just personally happen to like that for no reason in particular, not because it's expected of people with their biology to like that.
