Hey kids, I shouldn’t have to say this but please be aware that omegaverse is inherently homophobic and transphobic and omegaverse content will never not be disgusting. You may think you can do it in a way that’s “good” but the reality is that the very foundation of omegaverse is built around homophobic ideas about gay men (that they’re predatory, animalistic and can’t control themselves sexually, that our relationships always fit into some heteronormative dominant masc/submissive fem dynamic, that gay sex is equivalent to rape) and transphobic ideas about bodies and how those interact with gender and temperament (instead of acknowledging that there are men who can get pregnant and attempting to treat the subject respectfully, creating a new set of genders and a totally nonsensical new system of human biology to accommodate your fetishism that is, again, based on homophobic and frankly also misogynistic stereotypes). Gay relationships are real, they’re not fantastical playthings for you to impose homophobic norms on uncritically. Omegaverse is awful. Seeking it out is awful. Creating content for it is extra awful. Again, no matter how well you think you’re doing it, it doesn’t matter because it is, by definition, awful. If you create/consume OV content, you need to either self crit or realize that this makes you a homophobe and a transphobe, point blank, and I for one am not going to cut you any slack.

Additional note: omegaverse is often abbreviated “abo” but this is a strong racial slur in Australian English, so it should be avoided. OV works just as well.
