Even after reading the Fanlore article and reading some Sherlock fics, I don't think I'll ever get alpha/beta/omega fic, tbh.

[(Anonymous)]

I won't either, anon, you're not alone.

[majesdane]

Same.

[(Anonymous)]

Same here. I just don't find it at all interesting and the few times I've tried to give it a chance (Sherlock and a few other fandoms) I've found the characterization to be too wildly ooc to be enjoyable.

[oroburos69]

It makes me really uncomfortable. I think it's the whole "biologically assigned roles" thing, which pisses me off to an unbelievable extent in real life, so when it shows up in fic, I really, really don't like it. Yes, even if it's with men.

[anonymouslyyours]

I've seen a handful of fic that explores the "biologically assigned roles" from a non sparkly wonderful perspective and actually follows through on the premise instead of "you just hadn't found the right alpha yet!" and they were compelling but ninety-nine percent of it is *handwaving* "that's just how it is in this universe".

Though I have a hard time with the term omegaverse because it covers such a variety of interpretations it's really hard to tell what people are talking about. People seem to have very different ideas of what is and isn't omegaverse.

[majorshipper]

That's the only kind of alpha/beta/omegaverse fic I'll read, ones where they actually deal with the issues inherit in the system, rather than using the world as a vehicle for knotting.

[oroburos69]

Eh. Explore the issue all you want, it still isn't something I want to read. I have actually tried reading them--okay, once. It was decently written, and it didn't make the whole situation all sunshine and roses, but...IDK. It was everything I didn't like, all wrapped up a package with porn that I did like. Unfortunate.

[brooms]

i actually prefer it when they handwave it and go the way of 'it's just how omegaverse rolls, now let's get to some filthy sex' instead of being all philosophical and thoughtful about it (unless it's thoughtful wangsting that builds up to even hotter, filthier sex).

it's a guilty pleasure, shameful kink about self-lubricating anus, soulbonding, heat and dudes getting pregnant. come on, son. no matter how pretty a writer dresess it, it's still fucking ridiculous by finition.

[(Anonymous)]

Haha, I guess I'm a child of both worlds, then. They make me deeply uncomfortable because they are almost always dub-com at best and still regarded as 'romantic', yet I can't help reading them. It's a guilty pleasure, but I at least acknowledge that it's unnerving and that anything they do *except* for the specific knotting and self-lubrication kinks can be found in a sex pollen fic.

The ownership and brood-mare connotations do make my inner feminist rage, though.

[(Anonymous)]

until like 2 weeks ago I would have agreed with this, but then for some reason I started reading omegaverse fics and it's like the HOTTEST THING EVER for me for some reason. Idk.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, that happened to me about a month and a half ago. It was like a horrible light switch went off in my brain and now I find it stupidly hot. idk

[htebazytook]

Saaaame.

can somebody please explain it??

[writerserenyty]

I don't get it either. I just don't understand. If someone can explain what the appeal is, tell me. (It's honestly mostly the knotting thing. I don't get why that's hot or whatever).

[anonymouslyyours]

It's just intenser, sexier sex? The knotting I mean.

[(Anonymous)]

For me personally, sex is painful. It's always been painful. It hurts, every time I have penetrative sex and when I try to have non-penatrative sex with a partner, I can't get aroused.

So the idea of painful, hurty sex that the recipient can't get away from but is so fucking good that they wouldn't want to anyway? Hell yes, that's intriguing. It's hot. I've never had sex like that but God do I want to.

Or from another perspective, people like to read about big dicks. A knot is a big dick that gets even bigger.
