Thiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiis. Oh my God, this. I find the entire concept to creepy and repulsive for words. Like, why write a fantasy world that, you know, is not only not better than the real life, but worse for half the population?

I don't get this particular universe/concept either, but dystopia is a thing, and not everyone reads/watches/whatevers fantasy to escape to a happy fulfilling place. Actually, post Hunger Games, it has sort of become the Next Big Thing in young adult literature, and if you throw in all the zombie stuff that's popular now, it's not just young adult literature, it's everywhere. Hell, look at Game of Thrones, which is explicitly "fantasy is not fun and games." But from what I've seen, the A/B/O (is anyone else going to cringe or snicker the next time they give blood, or is that just me?) set-up isn't necessarily presented as dystopian, when I honestly have trouble picturing it as anything else. It's like the set-up for a horror movie.

True enough!

Because sometimes fantasy is about criticizing potentialities or the real world?

I mean, fuck, what do you think 'Fahrenheit 451,' 'Brave New World,' or '1984' are?

Use your brain.
