From my experience with omegaverses they do have sex Ed classes. I don't think that betas are taught to be so self-centered and unawares. It's like taking a CPR course, they need to know the same thing everyone else is being taught, even if they're gender neutral. It's like you learn CPR so you can help someone. There are two scenarios, one is from a novel I've read called Ni Jiu/ or Intoxication. I never finished it but got thru the first part: a late stage bloomer who's lived his entire life as a beta suddenly manifested as an omega and was induced into heat by an asshole alpha date and knew nothing about it, and not understanding it because it was a late stage development. However, the explanation for his lack of understanding is, besides the late stage expression, he had "never paid much attention in class due to the fact he would never be affected by it", but then like, do you live in a bubble?? The world around you have alphas and omegas going into heat and ruts all of the time, so either he's so oblivious or so into self that he doesn't care, or the world that he's in has everyone regulate their heat and rut cycle so well they never break down in front of you. And they manage their pheromones so well nobody ever gets induced into going into heat....
Like does our MC live in a bubble?!? Or this world smis so void of examples from friends, coworkers, neighbor ls, family members that he is so clueless?!? I mean yes, as a beta, he wouldn't have been able to detect the intensely overpowering sex pheromones but there are other symptoms of second genders going into heat/rut. I mean they should have at least shown photos of ppl in heat or something
Lmao- what experience, pray tell, do you have with fictional subspecies of humans and their education systems? Did you passed the barriers of reality and took some classes there?
I'm gonna take this as a facetious comment because maybe you haven't read enough ABO but there are MANY stories where yes, they have sex Ed classes, just as we do. The example I just gave above, apparently you have not read, is one of them.
Or else you're misunderstanding my meaning that there are sex Ed clases for us about ABO, but no, the sex ed classes are about them and is for them as part of the setting in their universe.
And depends on the culture and family or friends or ppl you have interactions with you would know about it. Plenty of omegaverse have stories of pheromones going out of control and people going into heat all over the place on the news. Maybe this omegaverse is so....I don't know, "ordered" that these things don't happen or enough to expose people to it?!? Idk.
I have no idea where your head is at when you made this statement but in the novel/manhua Intoxicated the author explained in that way, that TingWei (the former beta) had been used to living as a beta his whole life and was a late stage manifestation so since he never differentiated he didn't pay attention to their sex ed class regarding second gender as it didn't apply to him. To me it was a weak argument because IRL unless you live in a bubble or the society has managed to dampen down omega and alpha rut and heat responses and pheromones so well regulated that they don't just spontaneously go into heat and cause havoc then sure...and there is also family members or friends, or the news, something that would educate you. Or they're so convinced of their status as betas they just like, oh I don't need to know about your condition....
It's not facetious, it's straight mocking. Because you make it sound like you know what fictional world is like, when there has been zero world building on that front in this particular title, and then you invoke other titles as if they had anything to do with this one. It's not interconnected marvel universe where you can interfere from title to title. You sound so out of touch and yet so self assured, it's really funny to read.
And you answered me 4 times? Why?
I don't know. It's been four weeks now since the story's development. We still don't know the world building. But whatever. My statement regarding his beta-ness remains true, particularly since nothing has been revealed. I was questioning why he was so clueless. I was giving examples of what know about other omegaverses, where an ABUNDANT of omegas and alphas going into heat in the streets is fairly common. I WASN'T SAYING THIS WAS ONE OF THEM?!? I SAID, FROM MY EXPERIENCE WITH OTHER OMEGAVERSES THAT THIS COULD HAVE BEEN ONE OF THEM. SO I WAS WONDERING WHY HE WAS SO CLUELESS. Anyways, it's been almost a month so your reply is late and I have no idea anymore. Furthermore, I probably wasn't finished with my thoughts, or if you had wanted, it could have been condensed into one long "essay"/rant instead of four chunks?!? Happy?!?
Also, you've blocked me but can still respond to me. Hilarious.
Honestly my favorite internet past time is trying to give logic to bad fiction scenarios like their real hahaha.
In defense of the MC not knowing/realizing the rut symptoms:
People of the jury, remember back to when you were younger and in school. It was time for your badly underfunded public schools yearly "sex-ed" talk and your teachers leading everyone through it. Now there are some options schools can take, 1 is separating the the boys and girls and showing them health topics related to their genders. 2 showing a very outdated PSA about stds and hormones. And some others but for me personally, we got option 1, meaning as a young girl I never really knew/cared about the inner workings or the opposite sex.
I like to think that's what's going on here, MC relieved a public education where betas were taught to not care about how Alphas and Omegas hormones worked and vice-versa. Why would a uneducated man know all the workings of a women's menstrual cycle? Why would a beta know the signs of a rut and how to use a suppressor? Same logic as far as I'm concerned lol. Beta sees his alpha exfwb look loopy and out of it but can still respond = cold/flu, I'm sure if anything betas are taught that alphas go feral and maybe get aggressive during ruts so he could tell the difference.
TLDR: MC has a public school education and didn’t learn about alphas and omega hormones lmao
Thank you, my client is innocent :>
Also fuck the ML he's a rapist and can kiss my ass
