((Hell, I'll log in for this. The only place I go here that features ABO in much capacity is an anon meme, so I doubt this comment can be traced there. /secret agent))

I don't care for ABO when it's strictly about the sex and babby making. (I've seen one really good ABO fic, which I loved because it flipped gender roles and "who would be in what" preconceptions completely on their heads. Then again, I don't read many ABO fics, but I'll take recs...)

What I'm more interested in these types of worlds / settings / AUs is the culture and the classes therein. It always seems like (and this may be a highly selective memory at play here, and if that's the case, I apologize) the Alphas are always really wealthy, and Omegas are like pampered slaves for their assigned / mated / "omg it's destiny" Alpha. Therefore, I wonder: What are these cultures like? Are there Alphas who dislike the whole concept because it feels like dub- / noncon? Are there Omegas who hate their lot in life and want to go out in the country and start up a farm or something? Have the Omegas ever tried to revolt against the Alphas (and to some degree the Betas)? If so, what was the end result?

I feel like if sex and/or pairings didn't come up in the course of the fic, ABO could be a really interesting thing—or rather, world—to explore (my love of dystopian AUs and fiction aside). It has potential; as it is, if that's your thing, go right on ahead, it's not like I can crawl through the Internet and whine at you to not read it.
